Caring Candies Have a Low Rating on the Glycemic Index -- What Does That Mean and Is That a Good Thing?
The Glycemic Index (GI) Factor was developed to rank food products on a scale of 0-100 according to their actual effect on blood-glucose levels. Glucose is taken as 100, since it causes the greatest and most rapid rise in blood-glucose levels, and all other foods are rated in comparison to Glucose. Using the Glycemic Index (GI) concept, diabetics, low blood-sugar (hypoglycemic) sufferers, children with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) and athletes, can all optimize their blood-glucose control. For those wanting to lose weight, the increased satiety - and the fact that less insulatin (a fat storer) is secreted by a low-GI diet - results in better fat loss. Foods with a low GI release glucose slowly and steadily into the bloodstream and do not over-stimulate insulin secretion. Carning
Candies have been given a Glycemic Rating of 9 (which is very, very low)

What Makes Caring Candies "Tooth Friendly"?
Caring Candies contain no sugar, aspartame nor saccharine.
It uses the natural sugar replacer Isomalt which is tooth-friendly! As you know, dental cavities develop when bacteria adhere to the surface of teeth in the form of plaque. These convert fermentable carbohydrates into acids, which then attack the tooth enamel. Isomalt prevents tooth decay in several ways: Most micro-organisms occurring in the oral cavity are unable to feed on Isomalt. So eating Caring Candies instead of sweets containing sugar does not cause the release of significant amounts of acid, and the PH remains above the critical level of 5.7 The non-sour flavors of Caring Candies are PH-balanced. Isomalt also reduces plaque formation as it cannot serve as a structural component of the plaque.By stimulating saliva production, Isomalt has a remineralising effect (i.e. it helps build dental enamel). Research has suggested that Isomalt enhances the positive effects of fluoride.
