Common questions

Is NOW® Real Food Organic Xylitol healthy?

NOW® Real Food Organic Xylitol scores 95/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

NOW® Real Food Organic Xylitol lists 1 ingredient, starting with Organic Xylitol. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
