Why isn't Daforto Stevia Plus suitable for the production of beverages?
Daforto Stevia Plus contains "Erythritol". Erythritol is a so-called "sugar alcohol". Despite the name, that term describes a group of materials which aren't neither sugar nor alcohol, even though they have some chemical similarities to both. Erythritol is found naturally in some fruits (water melons, pears and grapes), mushrooms, fermented foods (soy sauce, rice wine and beer), and cheese. It is very similar to sugar regarding the consistency and taste, but it contains no calories. The disadvantage of erythritol in comparison to stevia is its low level of sweetness (it is only half as sweet as sugar). On the other hand, erythritol and stevia can balance out their opposite disadvantages: stevia can make erythritol really sweet, and erythritol gives the missing volume to stevia, so the problem of dosification can be solved. Erythritol was allowed to be sold as a food additive within the borders of the European Union in 2008 (as "E 968").
For sugar alcohols, the European Union demands two notifications on their labels. The first note is "excessive consumption can have a laxative effect". This side effect applies to erythritol much more rarely than it applies to all the other sugar alcohols though. Secondly, it has to be noted that sugar alcohols are "not suitable for the production of beverages". People often drink excessive amounts of beverages even when not thirsty, in contrast to excessive overeating, which is much rarer. This label is in place to avoid potentially unhealthy intake levels. Again, the side effect applies to erythritol more rarely than it does to the other sugar alcohols, but the EU regulation has to be followed.
