1.What is Polydextrose?

Polydextrose is a water-soluble dietary fiber, white or off-white solid particles, easily soluble in water, solubility of 70%, 10% aqueous solution of the PH value of 2.5-7.0, no special taste, is a health care functional food components, can be supplemented with water-soluble dietary fibers required by the human body. After entering the human digestive system, it produces special physiological metabolic functions, thus combating constipation and fat deposition. Polydextrose is a kind of D-glucose polymers made from glucose, sorbitol and citric acid as raw materials, which are blended and heated into a molten mixture in a specific ratio, and then condensed by vacuum. Polydextrose is an irregular condensation of D-glucose.

2.How is Polydextrose produced?

Raw materials include glucose (73%-94.9%), citric acid (0.1%-7%), sorbitol (5%-20%), the process steps are as follows: 1. according to the above proportion of material mixing; 2. mixed materials for drying, moisture control at 0.5-8%; 3. after drying the material for polymerization, temperature control at 50-300 ° C, time 1-15 hours, negative pressure vacuum degree 0.02-0.06MPa, the formation of polymers; 4. polymer cooling and crushing. The polymerization reaction in the present invention is carried out in a high-temperature laminated stainless steel reactor with heat-conducting oil furnace for polymerization. As a result of the above process device so that the polymer content of polydextrose products increased to more than 90%; reduced the content of reducing sugar to less than 4%; acidity and pH value is lower, acidity of 0.02, pH value of 5.0%.

3.How is Polydextrose stored and distributed?

1. Food grade should be transported and stored according to food hygiene requirements. Avoid mixing and transporting, and load and unload lightly when handling to prevent damage to the package. 2. Precautions for safe operation: In places where dust is generated, provide suitable exhaust equipment. General fire protection measures. 3. Storage conditions:Keep sealed and keep away from light Temperature conditions:Room temperature 4. Moisture-proofing:To avoid the bag from breaking, to avoid its moisture and rain, so as to ensure that its properties will not change. To avoid unnecessary losses. 5. Anti-temperature: when under the influence of high temperature, performance, properties will be more or less affected, therefore, in the storage must avoid high temperature. 6. Fire prevention: When storing, pay special attention to fire prevention.

4.What is Polydextrose used for?

1、Regulate lipid metabolism: Polydextrose can create a membrane in the small intestine and wrap part of the food fat, which can effectively limit the absorption of fat in the digestive tract, promote the excretion of lipid compounds, increase the sense of satiety, reduce the amount of food, so as to achieve the regulation of blood lipids, reduce the accumulation of fat, and prevent the efficacy of obesity. 2、Lowering cholesterol: Polydextrose can adsorb bile acids, cholesterol variants and other organic molecules, inhibit the increase of total cholesterol (TC) concentration, reduce the synthesis and absorption of bile acids and salts, reduce the level of plasma and liver cholesterol, prevention and treatment of coronary arteriosclerosis, cholelithiasis and the prevention of cardio-cerebral and cerebral vascular diseases, and so on.
