Product Introduction
Polydextrose is a water-soluble dietary fiber. When ingested, it can produce specific physiological functions, such as preventing constipation, regulating gastrointestinal function, and controlling blood sugar levels.
Polydextrose is primarily used as a food additive, serving as a thickener or filler, characterized by low calories, low cholesterol, and low fat.
It is a functional food component that supplements the body's need for water-soluble dietary fiber. Once it enters the digestive system, it generates specific physiological metabolic functions, preventing constipation and fat accumulation.
Production Process
Polydextrose is produced from glucose, sorbitol, and citric acid. These ingredients are blended in specific proportions, heated to a molten state, and then undergo vacuum polycondensation to form a D-glucose polymer.
Benefits and Functions
Regulation of Lipid Metabolism: Polydextrose forms a membrane in the small intestine, enveloping some dietary fats, effectively limiting fat absorption in the digestive tract. This promotes the excretion of lipid compounds, increases satiety, reduces food intake, and helps regulate blood lipids, reduce fat accumulation, and prevent obesity.
Reduction of Sugar Absorption: Polydextrose can hinder the contact between food and digestive juices, suppress glucagon secretion, and slow down glucose absorption, thereby lowering postprandial blood sugar levels, enhancing insulin efficacy, and preventing diabetes.
Prevention and Treatment of Constipation: Polydextrose can absorb water and swell in the intestines, increasing stool volume, stimulating intestinal peristalsis, and speeding up bowel movements, thereby promoting regularity and preventing constipation.
Adjustment of Gastrointestinal Function: Polydextrose can improve gastrointestinal function, increase beneficial bacteria, promote the absorption of nutrients, and reduce the contact time between harmful substances in the intestine and the intestinal wall.
Regulation of Blood Sugar: Polydextrose can inhibit sugar absorption and regulate blood sugar levels.
