What is organic maltodextrin?
Organic maltodextrin is a plant-sourced sweetener made from corn starch. It is generally used to thicken or as a filler to increase the volume of processed foods. Less than 20% sugar, is used to boost carbohydrate counts for patients who are diabetic or have insulin resistance.
Our corn grows in Heilongjiang province, the soil fertility here is particularly good for organic corn. The most cost-effective approaches are to rely on N from the legume, cover crop, and manure sources, and P and K from manure.
Our maltodextrin is a flavorless, easily digested carbohydrate made from corn starch. The starch is cooked, and then acid and/or enzymes (a process similar to that used by the body to digest carbohydrates) are used to break the starch into smaller chains (3-20 chains in maltodextrin). These chains are composed of several dextrose molecules held together by very weak hydrogen bonds.
