How Much Xylitol Is Okay?

Approved as Safe and Effective

Xylitol has been approved for use by people of all ages. Studies suggest that children especially, can benefit from using xylitol. In fact, in most of the xylitol research studies, children have been the key participants.

Ideal exposure time is best determined by the family’s dentist or pediatrician and will vary as children age, but in most cases as few as 6-8 grams a day will provide tremendous benefits. Studies have shown that 6-8 grams of xylitol daily can help reduce cavities in kids by as much as 80%.
