Threshold for transitory diarrhea induced by ingestion of xylitol and lactitol in young male and female adults.

Only registered users can translate articles

The ingestion of a sufficiently large amount of non-digestible and/or non-absorbable sugar substitutes causes overt diarrhea. The objective is to estimate the non-effective dosage that does not cause transitory diarrhea for xylitol, lactitol, and erythritol in healthy subjects. Twenty-seven males

Dietary xylitol, sorbitol and D-mannitol but not erythritol retard bone resorption in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of the present study was to compare the ability of four dietary polyols to reduce bone resorption. Urinary excretion of 3H radioactivity from [3H]tetracycline-prelabeled rats was used as a marker of bone resorption. After prelabeling, the rats were divided randomly into five groups of 10,

The anti-cariogenic potential of xylitol in comparison with sodium fluoride in rat caries experiments.

Only registered users can translate articles

Previous rat caries experiments in our laboratory demonstrated an anti-cariogenic and most probably a remineralizing effect of xylitol. The purpose of the present study was to compare the caries-inhibiting property of xylitol and fluoride in drinking water. The study consisted of two experiments

Fructose, xylitol, and sorbitol.

In conclusion, fructose, sorbitol, and xylitol are calorie-containing non-glucose sugars that produce a lessened postprandial hyperglycemia in the absence of severe insulin insufficiency when given as pure substances. However, the day-long quantitative reduction of hyperglycemia that may result from

The involvement of liver fructokinase in the metabolism of D-xylulose and xylitol in isolated rat hepatocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hepatocytes isolated from fed, male, Sprague-Dawley rats accumulate xylulose-1-phosphate and glycolaldehyde as well as xylulose-5-phosphate when incubated with 2-20 mM D-xylulose. Fructokinase inhibitors (fructose and 1-deoxyfructose) decreased xylulose-1-phosphate and glycolaldehyde (but not

Too much of too little: xylitol, an unusual trigger of a chronic metabolic hyperchloremic acidosis.

Homeopathic globules are frequently used in children as a first-line treatment. Most of these globules are coated with sugar substitutes like xylitol; these substitutes are known for their laxative effect. Our patient shows that consumption of globules coated with xylitol does not have only laxative

Tolerability of oral xylitol solution in young children: implications for otitis media prophylaxis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Xylitol, given as 2g orally five times-a-day, significantly reduces the incidence of acute otitis media (AOM) in children. A less frequent dosing schedule, if tolerable and efficacious, would promote the more widespread use of this treatment. We sought to determine the tolerability and

Incidence of increased numbers of Clostridium perfringens in the intestinal tract of rats fed xylitol.

Sprague-Dawley rats were fed diets containing up to 20% xylitol for 49 days. When the rats were fed a xylitol regimen intended to produce adaptation to xylitol, approximately half of the animals adapted to xylitol and remained free from diarrhea during the feeding regimen. The other half did not

Xylitol vs glucose: effect on the rate of gastric emptying and motilin, insulin, and gastric inhibitory polypeptide release.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of xylitol and glucose on the rate of gastric emptying and intestinal transit and on motilin, gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), and insulin release were studied in human volunteers. A single oral dose of 200 mL water containing 30 g glucose or 30 g xylitol, mixed with a

National survey of pediatricians' opinions about and practices for acute otitis media and xylitol use.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Acute otitis media (AOM) is the main reason for physician visits and antibiotic prescriptions in children. Pediatricians (Peds) are gatekeepers for services and sources of information for families. The 2004 American Academy of Pediatrics/American Academy of Family Physicians (AAP/AAFP)

[Xylitol, mechanisms of action and uses].

Only registered users can translate articles

Xylitol is recommended as a sugar substitute and is claimed not only to be non-cariogenic, but also to exhibit an anti-caries effect. An interesting aspect of xylitol is that it has a certain bacteriostatic effect. Xylitol is taken up by many strains of Strep mutans and Strep sanguis even if these

Effects of dietary xylitol on redox state and gluconeogenesis in the rat liver.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rats fed a 20% xylitol diet were compared to rats fed for 6 weeks a diet of either 20% glucose, cornstarch or sucrose (plus 45% cornstarch), or the AIN-76TM diet (basal diet). There were no differences between the rats (diarrhea-free) fed xylitol and those fed the other carbohydrate sources in the

Gastrointestinal Disturbances Associated with the Consumption of Sugar Alcohols with Special Consideration of Xylitol: Scientific Review and Instructions for Dentists and Other Health-Care Professionals.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sugar alcohols (polyols) are used in food manufacturing and in medical tests and examinations. d-Glucitol (sorbitol) and d-mannitol were previously the most common alditols used for these purposes. After the 1960s, xylitol became a common ingredient in noncariogenic confectioneries, oral hygiene
