Hello Dr. Ellie,
I am curious about the nutrition facts for the Zellies mints. I cant seem to find it on your website. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi B,
Zellies are made with half a gram of pure birch xylitol flavored with natural flavors.
The only other ingredient is vegetable based calcium stearate used to “oil” the press.
That is it!
There is one calorie in each Zellie mint and because the carbohydrate content is not utilized a Zellie mint is rated with zero NET carbs.
In fact, xylitol is recommended for athletes because it helps to preserve muscle fiber and break down fat.

If you eat 13 zellies each day you will reach the recommended dose of 6.5 grams necessary for promoting oral health.
I’ll be sure to include this information on the site and please let me know if there is any other information you need that does not seem to be available from the website.
