Xylitol can lower the blood sugar sometimes suddenly.
This is also true with humans. I liked to chew the
gum. Once about lunch time I got a phone call &
because it ran long & grabbed a couple pieces of gum.
Lunch was delayed and by the time I got off the phone
I was shaking due to the sudden drop in my sugar.
This is usually not a problem as one often uses it for
brushing AFTER eating, etc.
With dogs, the sudden drop in glucose can cause a loss
of coordination and even seizures. But even worse is
there is a strong link between ingesting the xylitol
and liver failure in the animal.
Not a good thing.
