Do You Know Where Your Xylitol Comes From?
Emerald Forest insures that you are getting the highest quality pharmaceutical grade Xylitol available. Our proof is in the certificate of analysis we receive with every shipment.

Our Xylitol comes from a renewable resource - corn cobs - that are free of genetically modified organisms and are pesticide free. Independent Chinese farmers use the corn they grow for their personal use while selling corn cobs at current market value to Xylitol manufacturers. I’ve visited many of these farms and can attest to the high quality standards employed by Chinese farmers.

The Xylitol manufacturer we work with in China allows us to personally inspect their testing facilities and manufacturing plants because they have nothing to hide. They can proudly say they are one of only a few Xylitol plants in the world that meet or exceed all international environmental standards.

As the demand for organic Xylitol gains momentum, we’ve encouraged our Xylitol manufacturer to begin the process to become organically certified, however, to date, there is no known source of organic Xylitol.

In an effort to undermine the purity of our corn-based Xylitol, some companies have initiated a negative campaign against us. These companies claim their Xylitol source is organic hardwood and grown in the U.S. Calls to these companies have failed to produce proof of their sources. We recently asked one of them where their U.S. plant was located and were told they were not able to name their location or exactly where their farms were. We ask that you also question the authenticity of their claims.

Danisco, the largest producer of corn-based Xylitol in China, makes pharmaceutical grade Xylitol of the highest standards. Our consultant personally spoke with Ross Craig at Danisco and he said, “At the end of the day, xylitol is xylitol and the purity is the same. Whether you extract the xylan molecule from a berry, corn or a hardwood tree, the end result is the same.” The manufacturing process renders a xylan molecule that has absolutely no traces of corn in it, which means that Xylitol is an allergen-free product.

We have confidence in our product and we invite you to try our superior Xylitol products today. Visit our Web site for more information on our processing or to see the pictures of our manufacturing facility in China. We have nothing to hide and are glad to honestly answer all inquiries you may have.
