Descripción adicional:

Tagatose is a naturally occurring rare monosaccharide with roughly 92% of sucrose's sweetness but markedly fewer calories, making it well suited as a low-calorie sweetener and bulking agent. Beyond its sweetening role, it delivers physiological benefits such as blunting blood glucose spikes, supporting a healthy gut microbiome and helping prevent dental caries, giving it wide-ranging potential across food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications.
