Polydextrose Powder

What is polydextrose?

 is a special carbohydrate with low calories and low glycemic index, which has the characteristics of water-soluble dietary fiber and prebiotics. It is a white to off-white solid powder at room temperature and pressure, has certain hygroscopicity and good solubility in water. It is a polysaccharide composed of randomly cross-linked glucose, which is formed by high-temperature melt polycondensation of naturally occurring glucose and a small amount of sorbitol and citric acid. These characteristics have made many food production industries recognize that polydextrose has similar physiological effects to other dietary fibers. It has developed rapidly in recent years and has been increasingly widely used in many foods, beverages, and health foods.

Characteristics

Solubility

Easily soluble in water, with a solubility of 70% at 25°C. Heating can promote its dissolution.

Viscosity

The viscosity decreases with increasing temperature and increases with increasing concentration.

Stability

It can be stably stored for 90 days below 60°C, and does not react with acids and alkalis at high temperatures of 200°C, but it has strong hygroscopicity and must be stored in a dry environment.

Moisture retention

It is a good food moisturizer. When the ambient temperature is high, it can fully absorb water to control temperature changes. At the same time, it can also control the water activity of the solution. When the water activity is greater than 60%, it can effectively reduce it. Because it has a highly branched structure and will not crystallize, its effect is better than small molecules such as sucrose and sorbitol.

Flavor

It has no sweetness and can be used with high-sweetness and low-calorie sweeteners to make low-calorie foods. When its concentration is high, it will have an unpleasant flavor, which can be eliminated by reducing the dosage, adding seasonings or flavor modifiers.

Corrected freezing point

The freezing point is higher than that of sucrose solutions of the same concentration. The lower the freezing point, the harder the food tastes, which is suitable for popsicles and certain desserts.

Efficacy

Increase satiety

Can help increase satiety, thereby reducing food intake, which helps with weight management and weight loss.

Lower cholesterol and blood lipids

Can reduce the intestinal absorption of cholesterol and promote the excretion of cholesterol, which helps to lower the cholesterol level in the blood.

Stabilize blood sugar levels

Not easily absorbed quickly, helps slow down the rate of blood sugar rise after a meal, and is good for maintaining a stable blood sugar level

Improve intestinal health

As a prebiotic, it can promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestine, such as bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria, thereby improving the balance of intestinal flora and promoting intestinal health.

Promote mineral absorption

Can improve the intestinal environment and promote the absorption of calcium and other minerals.

Prevent constipation

Can increase the volume and softness of stool, promote intestinal peristalsis, and help relieve and prevent constipation.

Lower blood sugar response

It is difficult to be absorbed, the glycemic index is very low, it is not easy to increase blood sugar after intake, and does not stimulate the secretion of insulin, which is very suitable for diabetic patients.

Detoxification

It can effectively regulate the pH value of the intestine, improve the breeding environment of beneficial bacteria, inhibit the growth of saprophytes, prevent intestinal mucosal atrophy, and excrete toxins and metabolic waste in the body in a timely manner.

Benefits to the digestive system

Promote digestion: It is a dietary fiber that can absorb water and swell, stimulate gastrointestinal motility, and thus help promote digestion.

Prevent constipation: Due to its hydrophilicity, it can increase the volume and moisture content of stool, soften stool, and improve the situation of difficult defecation.

Maintain the balance of intestinal flora: It can serve as a food source for probiotics, promote their growth and reproduction, and help maintain the stability of the intestinal microecological environment.

How to use?

Food

It has a wide range of applications in the food industry. It can be used as a thickener, stabilizer and moisturizer to improve the taste, texture and shelf life of food, as follows:

Dairy products: As a water-soluble dietary fiber, it can enhance the nutritional health function and taste of dairy products, such as in yogurt and ice cream.

Baked food: It can replace sucrose in the production of low-calorie cakes while maintaining the product's process performance, such as in cakes and biscuits.

Beverages: Poly is widely used in beverage products due to its excellent water solubility and stability. It has no bad taste, good color and transparency, and can enhance the taste of sugar-free or low-sugar beverages.

Frozen desserts: It has the function of replacing fat and can be used in functional ice cream to reduce calories while maintaining taste.

Candy: As a good ingredient for sugar-free candy, it can prevent crystallization and is suitable for tooth-health candy, etc.

Health food

Due to its low-calorie characteristics, it is often used to produce low-energy, slimming and weight-loss health foods for beauty lovers or young women.
