Xylitol is a neat food; it is a sugar alcohol.

Xylitol kills some harmful micro organisms like S. Mutans and Candida Albicans.

Xylitol will shift fecal bacteria from gram-negative (covered in a layer of slime) to gram-positive (no slime, healthier).

Xylitol will cause diarrhea but it's a good kind of diarrhea, plan accordingly.
