• Beschreibung: Lactitol is a polyol that is used as a sweetener and has the potential to cause diarrhea. It belongs to the group of sugar alcohols, which are not completely digested by humans. Lactitol is produced from lactose, which is derived from milk. The main clinical relevance of lactitol is its high intestinal permeability, low caloric value, and ability to lower blood glucose levels in diabetics. Lactitol undergoes microbial metabolism through the action of certain bacteria in the colon and can be found in products such as probiotics and food supplements. It has been shown to have beneficial effects on chronic viral hepatitis and may be used for treatment of bacterial translocation. Lactitol also inhibits pge2 production in mice with colitis, leading to decreased inflammatory responses in their small intestines and colon. This inhibition may also lead to suppression of tumor growth or promotion of apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells by inhibiting protein synthesis and cell division.br>
