High Quality Polydextrose Liquid
Polydextrose is a kind of water-soluble dietary fiber. Randomly boned condensation polymers of glucose with some sorbitol, end-groups, and with citric acid or phosphoric acid residues attached topolymers by mono or diester bonds. They are obtained by melting. It is white or off-white powder, soluble in water easily, the solubility is 70%. Soft sweet, no special taste. It has health care function and can supply the human body with water-soluble dietary fiber.
Physicochemical properties of polydextrose
1.Water-solubility
Polydextrose has high solubility characteristics, with 80% solubility at 25℃, which is higher than sucrose, sorbitol, xylitol, etc. The solubility further increases when the temperature increases.
2.Thermal stability
Polydextrose has high thermal stability and can be stored open at 25℃, 45℃, and 60℃ for more than 90 days, even at 200℃.。
3.Humidity retention
When the environmental humidity is high, polydextrose will fully absorb water while regulating the water activity of the product.
4.Viscosity characteristics
Under the same conditions, the viscosity of polydextrose is higher than that of sucrose. At higher temperatures, the viscosity of polydextrose decreases, and the pattern of change is similar to that of sucrose
Physiological properties of polydextrose
1.Low calorific value
The energy metabolic value of polydextrose is only 1kcal/g, which is a hard-to-digest sugar.
2.Intestinal improvement function
The fermentation and breakdown of polydextrose is slower than that of other prebiotics, and the regulating effect can be maintained to the end of the intestine.
3.Lowering intestinal pH
Polydextrose can effectively increase the amount of short-chain fatty acids, especially butyric acid, in the intestine, and these short-chain acids can effectively lower intestinal pH and improve intestinal function.
4.Prebiotics Effectiveness
As a prebiotic, polydextrose can selectively promote the proliferation of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria in the intestinal tract, while reducing the proliferation of toxic flora.
5.Hypoglycemic reaction
Polydextrose has a low glycemic response and low insulin requirement.
Function
Increase the volume of feces, enhance bowel movement, reduce the risk of intestinal cancer, etc., combined with the removal of bile acids in vivo, lower serum cholesterol significantly, cause the feeling of satiety easily, can significantly reduce blood glucose levels after meal.
