Sugar Alcohols
- Glycerine
Chemically a sugar alcohol, used to keep bars soft and moist rather than to sweeten. The EU safety authority found no safety concern at food levels. Large amounts can draw water into the gut and have a laxative effect.
EFSA re-evaluation of glycerol E422 (2017) - Erythritol
A sugar alcohol that is close to zero calorie, does not raise blood glucose, and is better tolerated digestively than most polyols. A 2023 study associated higher blood erythritol with cardiovascular events and found increased platelet clotting in a small trial. That evidence is observational and is not proof of harm.
Witkowski et al., Nature Medicine (2023)
Tropical Oils
- Palm Oil
Pressed from the fruit of the oil palm rather than its seed, so it is not one of the seed oils. Around half saturated fat, mostly palmitic acid, and a meta-analysis of controlled trials found it raises LDL cholesterol compared with vegetable oils low in saturated fat. Palm kernel oil comes from the seed inside the same fruit and carries more saturated fat again. Both stay solid at room temperature without hydrogenation, which is why coatings use them.
