Xivia - Source Material Statement: Danisco Sweeteners, the worlds leading Xylitol manufacturer, has been producing Xylitol since the beginning of the 1670's. In their patented and proprietary processes the raw material base for their production in both Europe and North America is hard wood sources - predominantly Birch and Beech. Both of these tree species are very rich in hemicellulose, the major component of which is xylan, a natural polymer of xylose ("wood sugar"). Danisco uses 100% wood based xylose in the production of Xivia. During the production, the chipped wood is subjected to hydrolysis which breaks down the xylan polymer in the hemicellulose into xylose monomers. They then enrich the xylose content by means of chromatographic separation, after which the xylose is purified and crystalized. The xylose is then dissolved in water, hydrogenated and finally, after several further purification steps, crystalized to high purity Xivia. Can animals eat Xylitol? No, they cannot. Although Xylitol can be a great benefit to humans it does not have the same affect on animals. Xylichew does not recommend that xylitol products be consumed by any pets. Xylichew is for human consumption only.
