Resistant Dextrin Benefits

The water-absorbing and swelling properties of Resistant dextrin are beneficial to promote the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, prevent constipation, and reduce and prevent gastrointestinal diseases. Not only can the Resistant dextrin effectively inhibit the absorption of cholesterol but it can also slow down and even reduce the absorption of harmful substances such as heavy metals so as to further prevent the harmful effects of harmful chemicals from happening. Moreover, the soluble corn fiber can also improve intestinal flora and maintain the microecological balance in the body. This low-calorie sweetener is also beneficial to the synthesis of certain nutrients. It is normally considered conducive to the treatment and rehabilitation of diabetes.

Resistant dextrin Nutrition Facts

Research led by researchers from the Department of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Toronto in Canada has shown that foods and beverages containing Resistant dextrin or resistant starch can lead to lower blood sugar and insulin responses. A lower response can help prevent sugar from rising and falling like a roller coaster, thereby improving weight control, maintaining energy, and controlling hunger, which is especially beneficial for patients struggling with diabetes.

Organic inulin powder is a natural food source of prebiotic soluble fibers. Inulin is a soluble fiber naturally found in many fruits and vegetables like bananas, asparagus, garlic, onions, and more. Our inulin is extracted from the Jerusalem artichoke rhizome. We extracted the inulin by water extraction, ion exchange, membrane filtration, and spray drying, and other processes.

Inulin has many health benefits. It can increase calcium absorption and possibly magnesium absorption while promoting the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria. As a good source of fiber, it contributes to normal bowel function when consumed with a healthy diet comprising a variety of foods.

Inulin is considered a prebiotic fiber. It is not actually absorbed in the stomach, but functions in the bowels where beneficial bacteria are able to use it to grow and proliferate. It supports the growth of bacteria associated with improving bowel function and general health.

Dietary fibers such as inulin are known to enhance gut health, curb appetite, help maintain heart health by influencing lipid metabolism, and improve bone density by increasing calcium and magnesium absorption. Beyond its prebiotic properties, Jerusalem artichokes are rich in iron, potassium, vitamin C, and B.

Our Inulin Powder is Organic, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, Vegan friendly, and contains no fillers, colors, or additives.

Characteristics

Excellent heat and acid resistance

Isomaltooligosaccharide is a white powder in appearance, slightly sweet in taste, easily soluble in water, and its aqueous solution is a colorless and transparent liquid. Excellent heat and acid resistance. The 50% syrup will not decompose if heated for a long time under PH3 and 120°C.

Mannan Oligosaccharides Benefits

Mannan oligosaccharides have the excellent characteristics of functional foods:

-Non-absorption: Mannan oligomers are functional oligosaccharides connected by β-1.4 glycosidic bonds, which cannot be digested and absorbed by the human body, and will not cause blood sugar rise, and can effectively reach the intestines. The lower part of track 2.

-Proliferation of beneficial bacteria: Tests on animals and humans have shown that mannan oligosaccharides can significantly proliferate bifidobacteria in the body. After one week, the bifidobacteria in feces increase by 50-100 times. At the same time, it inhibits the proliferation of harmful bacteria, and the animal gains weight significantly.

Application

Fructooligosaccharides are known as the most promising generation of additives after the era of antibiotics to promote biomass; in France, oligofructose powder is called protoxin. Fructooligosaccharide powder is generally used in dairy products (such as milk powder, lactic acid milk, ice cream, etc.), various health products, infant and middle-aged and elderly food, and beverages (such as coffee, herbal tea, etc.), alcohol, cakes, and feed. The number of health additives added as food and beverage is 10-150g/kg. The performance of oligofructose is relatively stable and will not decompose to produce toxic components. Therefore, people can boldly use fructooligosaccharides, as long as they can use ordinary sugar when cooking or making snacks.

As a prebiotic and dietary fiber with biological activity
Fructooligosaccharides are used in drinking water. It can not only meet the basic physiological functions and metabolic needs of the human body but also promote human health. Their roles complement each other and complement each other.

As a Bifidobacterium probiotic
This soluble dietary fiber can not only add to the function of oligofructose powder but also overcome some of the defects of the original product and make the product more perfect. For example, adding fructooligosaccharides to non-fermented dairy products (raw milk, milk powder, etc.) can solve the problem that middle-aged and elderly people and children are easy to get angry and secretive when supplementing nutrition; adding fructooligosaccharides to fermented dairy products can help The live bacteria in the product provide a source of nutrition, enhance the function of the live bacteria, and extend the shelf life. Adding oligofructose powder to cereal products can achieve higher product quality and extend the shelf life of the product.

As activator
That is, calcium, magnesium, iron, and other minerals and trace elements can achieve the effect of promoting the absorption of minerals and trace elements. For example, adding fructooligosaccharides powder, such as calcium, iron, zinc, etc., to food and health products can improve the product’s effect.

As a unique indigestible sugar-free low-calorie sweetener
When added to food, oligofructose powder can not only improve the taste of the product and reduce the calorific value of the food, but these functional oligosaccharides can also extend the shelf life of the product. For example, adding fructooligosaccharides to diet food can greatly reduce the calorific value of the product; fructooligosaccharide powder in low-sugar foods is less likely to cause blood sugar rise; adding fructooligosaccharide powder to alcoholic products can prevent solubles Precipitation in the wine, improve the clarity of the wine, improve the taste of the wine, and make the wine taste more mellow and refreshing; adding fructooligosaccharides to fruity beverages and tea beverages can make the product more delicate, soft, and refreshing
