What is polydextrose?

Sweetener polydextrose, also known as polydextrin or polydextrose, is a white or off-white solid particle with excellent water solubility. It is a D-glucose polymer formed by mixing glucose, sorbitol and citric acid as the main raw materials, heating them into a molten mixture in a specific proportion, and then undergoing a vacuum polycondensation reaction. As a multifunctional health ingredient, polydextrose plays an important role in many fields such as food, health food and antifreeze.

Functions and Applications:

Food additives: Polydextrose is low in calories and sugar-free, and can be widely used in healthy drinks such as sugar-free beverages and low-sugar yogurt. It can maintain the fresh taste of the beverage, increase the consistency and stability of the beverage, and improve the overall quality of the beverage. In baked goods such as bread and cakes, polydextrose can replace part of the sugar and fat, reducing the calorie and fat content of the product. It can extend the shelf life of the product and reduce the oxidation and deterioration of oils and fats. It can also be used as a filler for candies and chocolates to increase the volume and taste of the product, reduce the sweetness of candies and chocolates, and make the taste more refreshing. It can also improve the moisture resistance of candies and chocolates and maintain the shape and stability of the products.

Health care raw materials: Polydextrose, as a dietary fiber with health care functions, is added to health wine, health capsules and other products to enhance their nutritional and health care functions. It can also be used as an effective prebiotic to promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal bacteria and enhance immunity. It is often added to health products such as probiotic preparations and immunomodulators to improve the nutritional value and health care effects of the products.

Antifreeze: In the surimi industry, polydextrose can be used as a new antifreeze to alleviate the freezing denaturation of surimi protein and inhibit the change of protein spatial conformation, thereby improving the texture characteristics and water holding capacity of the product.

Ice cream and yogurt: Polydextrose can replace part of the fat in ice cream, while enhancing the proliferation of lactic acid bacteria in yogurt, improving the nutritional health function and taste of the product.

Specification Sheet

Product name	Polydextrose
Type	Sweeteners
Character	White powder
Molecular Formula	C6H10O5
Test method	HPLC
Introduction	Polydextrose is a water-soluble dietary fiber, which is polymerized by glucose, a small amount of sorbitol and citric acid or phosphoric acid at high temperature. The solubility can reach 70% at 25°C, and the solubility increases with the temperature. It remains stable at a high temperature of 200°C and does not react with acids and bases. Each gram provides 1-2 kcal of energy, which is much lower than ordinary carbohydrates. As a food moisturizer, it can delay water evaporation and extend the shelf life of the product. It has no sweetness itself, but can be used in combination with high-intensity sweeteners.Polydextrose has become an important ingredient in the food and health supplement industries due to its low calorie content, high fiber content, and favorable processing characteristics.
Function	Regulate intestinal function: Polydextrose has good water retention in the human body, which can shorten the emptying time of food in the stomach, promote the secretion of digestive juices, and facilitate the absorption and digestion of nutrients. It can also increase the volume of feces, stimulate intestinal peristalsis, and promote defecation, thereby effectively improving constipation. Assist weight loss: Since polydextrose is difficult to digest and absorb by the human body, about 60% of polydextrose will be excreted with feces, so the calories it produces are extremely low, only 25% of sucrose and 11% of fat. This makes polydextrose an ideal choice for assisting weight loss because it is not easily converted into fat. Lower blood sugar: Polydextrose can hinder the full contact between food and digestive juices, inhibit the secretion of glucagon, thereby slowing down the absorption of glucose and lowering postprandial blood sugar levels. This is especially beneficial for diabetic patients. Regulate blood lipids: Polydextrose can form a layer of film in the small intestine and wrap part of the food fat, effectively limiting the absorption of fat in the digestive tract and promoting the excretion of lipid compounds, thereby achieving the effect of regulating blood lipids and reducing fat accumulation. Enhance immunity: As an effective prebiotic, polydextrose can promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal bacteria (such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli) and inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. This effect helps to improve the intestinal environment, enhance immunity and reduce the risk of infection.
