Polydextrose (sugar free): an ideal ingredient for the beverage industry

In the tide of healthy consumption, the beverage industry is undergoing unprecedented changes. With the increasing attention of consumers to health, the traditional high sugar beverage market is gradually shrinking, and low sugar, high fiber, natural and healthy beverage products have become the new favorite of the market.

 Polydextrose (sugar free), as a high-quality functional ingredient with low sugar and high dietary fiber, is bringing new development opportunities to the beverage industry and leading the new trend of healthy beverages.

Polydextrose (sugar free): an ideal ingredient for the beverage industry

1) The health advantages of low sugar and low calorie

Polydextrose (sugar free) is a low calorie substance with only a quarter of the calories of regular carbohydrates and a total sugar content of ≤ 0.5%, which meets the national standards for sugar free foods. Adding polydextrose to beverages can significantly reduce the sugar and calorie content without affecting sweetness, texture, and taste, meeting consumers' demand for low sugar and low calorie beverages.

2)The health benefits of high dietary fiber

Polyglucose is a soluble dietary fiber that has the effects of regulating the intestines, blood sugar, and blood lipids. It can promote intestinal peristalsis, increase fecal volume, and prevent constipation; Meanwhile, polyglucose can slow down the absorption of sugar, help stabilize blood sugar levels, and lower blood lipids. Adding glucose to beverages can provide consumers with abundant dietary fiber and meet their demand for high fiber products.

3) Excellent processing performance

Polydextrose has a viscosity similar to sucrose and has good processing properties. It has stable properties, good water solubility, high tolerance, and a wide range of compatibility, and can be widely used in liquid and solid beverages. During the beverage production process, polyglucose can maintain the original flavor and texture of the beverage, providing a satisfying taste experience without affecting the processing technology and quality of the beverage.

4 High level of security

The safety of polydextrose has been recognized by international authoritative institutions. The FAO/WHO has approved polyglucose as a safe food additive, and over 50 countries including China, Japan, and Australia have also approved the use of polyglucose. In China, polydextrose has been approved as a "common food", "food additive", and "nutritional fortifier" and has been widely used in the beverage industry.
