In the world of sports nutrition, it’s not just what’s in the product that matters, but also what’s not. At FitWin, we understand that our consumers care about their health, figure, and the quality of the ingredients. That’s why we carefully select each ingredient — including sweeteners. In many FitWin products, you’ll find maltitol and steviol glycosides — and here’s why.
Maltitol — sweetness without excess sugar
Maltitol is a natural sugar alcohol derived from corn or wheat starch. It has a pleasant sweet taste, very similar to sugar, but contains significantly fewer calories.
Why do we use it?
Low glycemic index: maltitol does not cause sharp spikes in blood sugar, which is important for athletes, dieters, and anyone who monitors metabolic health.
Good digestibility: easily digested without burdening the body.
Pleasant taste: no metallic aftertaste like some other sweeteners.
Steviol glycosides - natural sweetness from stevia leaves
These are extracts from the stevia plant, which are 200-300 times sweeter than sugar, but contain no calories. We use steviol glycosides in a minimally processed form to preserve their naturalness.
What are they good for?
Low in calories: great for diet products.
Safe for teeth: do not cause cavities.
Suitable for people with diabetes: do not increase blood glucose levels.
Sweet - but wisely
By using maltitol and steviol glycosides, we achieve the optimal balance between taste and benefit. Our products remain delicious, but do not contain excess sugar. This allows you to not only enjoy, but also achieve your goals - in sports, fitness or healthy eating.
