Product Profile
Polydextrose is a polymer of saccharides. As a water-soluble dietary fiber and functional
ingredients, it can regulate blood sugar and lipids, and be widely used in food field.
Structure and composition
Hifibers (Polydextrose) is a randomly bonded glucose polymer produced by thermal polymerization of glucose in vacuo.
Physical and chemical properties
1. Higher solubility
Polydextrose is high water solubility approximately 80% at 25℃, higher than sucrose, sorbitol, xylitol, and even higher in high temperature.
2. Thermal Stability
Polydextrose, with extremely stability, can save more than 90 dates in uncovered conditions at 25℃, 45℃ and 60℃, and keeps stability even at 200℃。
3. Moisture retention
When the environmental humidity is in a higher level, solid polydextrose can absorb water sufficiently, and affects water activity of solution as food humectant.
Functional benefits
One bulking agent with 1 calorie/gram
1. Enables lower calorie products to be developed.
2. Intestinal improved function.
Polydextrose= Prebiotic+Fiber
3. Polydextrose is fermented slower than other prebiotics, which can act a positive effect in the distal part of the colon.
4. PH
Polydextrose enhance short chain fatty acid especially butyrate, which contribute to normal colon function and decrease gut PH.
5. Prebiotic
Polydextrose, as a prebiotic, selectively stimulates growth of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria and decreases toxic bacteria. (Source: Dynisco).
6. Low Glycaemic response
Polydextrose elicit low glycaemic responses, and has a minimal impact on blood glucose levels and insulin demand.
7. Enhances Ca2+ Absorption
Polydextrose can enhance the Ca2+ absorption (Hiroshi Hara et al. (2000))
