It may even help to mitigate against insulin resistance and become a useful tool against the onset of diabetes. It has a hypoinsulinemic effect, the exact opposite of fructose. A 2010 trial showed significant improvement in triglyceride levels and insulin response in mice.

Concerns:

As with most other sugars it is harmful to teeth. It has a fairly high glycemic index, though unlike ordinary sugar it is only broken down into glucose - there is no fructose component. Fine in moderation.

Safety:

There is no recommendation from the FDA or the CSPI on this sugar. It would be well to follow the World Health Organization Guideline and restrict intake of all sugars, including Trehalose to 50g per day.

Production:

In 1994 Japanese firm Hayashibara developed a low cost of producing it from starch. Before that it was not widely available.

Sold As:

Not usually sold on its own. A new product has arrived on the market called NewSweet. It consists of Trehalose sweetened with Stevia so that it can be used one for one with ordinary sugar. This would give it an effective glycemic index of 35, and it contains no fructose. However it still is sugar, so moderation is essential.
