Tagatose is a functional sweetener. It is a naturally occurring monosaccharide, specifically a hexose. It is commonly found in dairy with a similar texture and sweetened capacity to sucrose but with only a third of the calories. It is approved as a food additive as a low calorie sweetener. Additionally, it is under investigation by Spherix for the treatment of obesity and type II diabetes.

he steps in the metabolism of tagatose are identical to those for fructose or fruit sugar but tagatose is incompletely absorbed. Only 15-20 percent of tagatose is absorbed in the small intestine. The major part of ingested tagatose is fermented in the colon by indigenous microflora, resulting in the production of short-chain fatty acids. The short chain fatty acids are absorbed almost completely and metabolized.
Intended for use as a therapeutic adjunct in the treatment of type II diabetes.
