Rudy Beverage, Inc. (RBI), a portfolio company of Global Beverage Solutions, Inc. (OTC BB:GBVS.OB), reaffirms its commitment to providing the nation with the first low sugar nutritional sport beverages containing the natural sweetener xylitol. The scientific community is continuing to produce studies that recognize the noncariogenic properties of the sweetener as a means to reduce dental caries, commonly known as dental cavities.
âPlaque, the cause of most types of dental caries, is the result of waste and bacteria that attach to teeth on layer of dextran, a derivative of sucrose, which is the most common table sugar. Lactic acid producing bacteria, like the cariogenic bacteria Streptrococcus mutans, require sucrose for their damaging effects on the teeth and gums. Reducing sucrose intake has a significant impact on these microbes' ability to cause tooth decay, a disease that 80-90% of Americans are faced with managing,â according to Todd Bixby, Director of Research, Intertone Research Group.
