Popular questions
  1. How much ethyl maltol?

    It’s very potent; in foods it’s typically used at tens of ppm (about 0.001–0.01%), and JECFA’s acceptable daily intake is 0–2 mg/kg body weight per day.

  2. Ejuice ethyl maltol how much?

    Use only tiny amounts; many formulators add about 0.25–1% of a 10% ethyl maltol-in-propylene glycol solution (roughly 0.025–0.1% EM, or ~250–1000 ppm), as higher levels can mute flavors.

  3. Ejuice how to use ethyl maltol?

    Dissolve it in propylene glycol to make ~10% solution, then add sparingly to the flavor base and adjust after steeping; start very low because too much can flatten flavors.

  4. Ethyl maltol what is it?

    A synthetic flavor enhancer (E637) that provides sweet, caramelized “cotton candy” notes and boosts perceived sweetness; it’s an approved flavoring substance used at very low levels.

  5. How much ethyl maltol in e liquid?

    Typically 0.025–0.1% ethyl maltol by weight (e.g., 0.25–1% of a 10% solution) is enough for e-liquids; exceeding this often mutes or overly candies the mix.

  1. Is sucralose bad for you?

    For most people, no—sucralose (E955) is approved by major regulators and considered safe within the acceptable daily intake (about 5–15 mg/kg body weight/day, depending on the authority). Some studies note possible effects on the gut microbiome or insulin responses and that very high-heat cooking can degrade sucralose, so use it in moderation and as directed.

  2. Does sucralose raise blood sugar?

    On its own, sucralose does not raise blood glucose for most people. Some studies show small insulin or glycemic effects when consumed with carbohydrates, but overall impact is minimal compared with sugar.

  3. Is sucralose bad?

    Generally, no—it's regarded as safe at typical intakes under established ADIs. Evidence on long‑term effects on weight or cardiometabolic health is mixed and still being studied.

  4. Is sucralose worse than sugar?

    Not typically; sucralose provides sweetness without calories, blood‑sugar spikes, or tooth‑decay risk, whereas sugar adds calories and raises blood glucose. Research on long‑term metabolic effects of non‑nutritive sweeteners is mixed, so choice depends on your goals and tolerance.

  5. Sucralose what is it?

    Sucralose (E955) is a noncaloric artificial sweetener made by chlorinating sucrose, about 600 times sweeter than sugar. It's heat‑stable and widely used to sweeten beverages, desserts, and packaged foods.
