Product Description

Sorbitol, also known as glucitol, is a sugar alcohol, which the human body metabolizes

slowly. It can be obtained by reduction of glucose, changing the aldehyde group to a 

hydroxyl group. Most sorbitol is made from corn syrup, but it is also found in

apples, pears, peaches, and prunes.It is synthesized by sorbitol-6-phosphate

dehydrogenase, and converted to fructose by succinate dehydrogenase and sorbitol

dehydrogenase.Succinate dehydrogenase is an enzyme complex that participates

in the citric acid cycle.
