Description
Soft mastic candy toffee, no added sugar with natural mastic from Chios.
These candies are ideal for people on diet, since they are sugar free. Instead of sugar, is added maltitol. Maltitol is a polyol used as a sugar substitute.
Mastic (mastiha) is the resin of a special wild tree that grows exclusively on the island of Chios. Because of the good effects of mastic on oral and dental health, the resin has been known as a particularly valuable natural product for over 3000 years and has therefore become a very sought-after and expensive commodity. Mastic was used in ancient Greece and Rome as chewing gum for dental care. It has a disinfectant effect and strengthens the gums. To date, its effects on oral hygiene are valued.
The good health effects of mastic have been proven in many scientific studies conducted worldwide. Leading germs, which are responsible for the formation of caries (Streptococcus mutans), periodontitis (Porphyromonas gingivalis) or gastric ulcers (Helicobacter pylori), can be successfully reduced by the consequent use of mastic.
