Zsweet(R) Exhibits at American Dietetic Association Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo, Honolulu

Posted on: Tuesday, 5 September 2006, 12:00 CDT

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Dietetic Association's Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo takes place on September 16 - 19, 2006, at the Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu. With its approximately 65,000 members, the American Dietetic Association (ADA) conference is the world's largest gathering of food and nutrition professionals. That's why Zsweet(R), the incomparable, new zero calorie natural sugar alternative, is proud to be on hand to meet ADA members.

Zsweet's(R) fresh natural taste is no accident. In comparison to other sweeteners in the market, Zsweet(R) contains no chemical ingredients, no caloric and carbohydrate fillers, and no dietary supplements. What Zsweet(R) does have is a unique proprietary blend of extracts from fruits and vegetables with erythritol. This naturally occurring polyol or sugar alcohol actually contains neither sugar nor alcohol but shares parts of their structures. Unlike other polyols, erythritol is highly digestible and zero calorie, so Zsweet(R) tastes great and feels great.

The ADA Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo is the foremost event to learn about food and nutrition, from cutting-edge information to research and specifics on special areas of practice. At the Hawaii Conference Center, attendees can meet with sources of the latest information in nutrition science, research and its everyday applications; learn about current developments in food, nutrition and health policy and legislation; and discover new food-related products and services in the Expo Hall. And this is where Zsweet(R) comes in -- attendees are invited to come meet us and have a taste!

Until now, the concept of a sweetener that tastes good, is good for you, and can assist in the control of obesity and maintaining normal blood sugar levels, was pure imagination. Well, thanks to Zsweet(R) that has changed! Zero calorie Zsweet(R) has a refreshingly natural flavor and pleasant granular texture. And, Zsweet(R) loves playing sous chef in the kitchen -- use Zsweet(R) in cooking, baking and fruit desserts as well as hot and cold drinks.

ADA members should know that Zsweet(R) is the only sugar alternative in its category to offer tangible benefits for people concerned with blood sugar and those prone to obesity. A recent clinical trial conducted by Toronto-based Glycemic Index Laboratories, Inc., confirmed no elevation in blood sugar from a 15-gram dose, equivalent to 4 teaspoons of sugar. Kosher certified Zsweet(R) has also been endorsed by Nicholas Perricone, M.D., in his New York Times best selling book, "The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet."

Zsweet(R) is available in Whole Foods and local health food stores nationally.
