Plasma Levels of Polyols Erythritol, Mannitol, and Sorbitol and Incident Coronary Heart Disease Among Women.

Higher plasma erythritol and mannitol/sorbitol were related to elevated risks of CHD even after adjustment for diet, lifestyles, adiposity, and other risk factors. The unfavorable association of mannitol/sorbitol, but not erythritol, with CHD risk remained significant independently of diabetes/hyperglycemia.
