1. Product Introduction
Poly-D-glucose, also known as Polyglucose or Polydextrose (CAS: 68424-04-4, E1200, CNS 20.022), is a high-purity water-soluble dietary fiber polymerized from D-glucose, sorbitol and citric acid under high temperature and vacuum conditions.
It features a random 1,6-glycosidic bond structure with an average molecular weight of 3200. The product is a white free-flowing powder, easily soluble in water with a solubility of over 70% at room temperature. It is tasteless, odorless, low-calorie, and non-glycemic, serving as a multi-functional food ingredient widely recognized by global food safety institutions.
Compliant with FCC, USP, EU E1200 and China GB 25541 standards, it is a safe, stable and versatile functional fiber for global food, beverage and health product manufacturing.
2. Core Advantages
-
Low-Calorie & Low-GI：Only 1 kcal/g, extremely low GI value (＜10), no blood sugar spike, no insulin stimulation, non-cariogenic. Ideal for sugar-free, low-sugar and diabetic-friendly food formulas.
-
High Purity & Excellent Solubility：Dietary fiber content ≥97%, fully water-soluble with clear solution without precipitation or turbidity. Perfect for transparent beverages and high-end liquid products.
-
Probiotic & Intestinal Health Care：Effectively proliferate beneficial intestinal bacteria, improve intestinal flora balance, promote intestinal peristalsis and relieve constipation. It is a premium natural prebiotic fiber.
-
Super Processing Stability：Resistant to high temperature (baking & sterilization), acid-base environment (pH 2.5-7.0) and freezing conditions. No degradation or texture change during food processing, ensuring stable product quality.
-
Multi-Functional Formula Optimization：Acts as thickener, humectant, stabilizer and filling agent. It can replace sucrose and fat to reduce product calories, improve taste texture and extend shelf life.
-
Global Compliance & Safe Certification：Approved for food use in China, EU, USA and other regions. Strict microbial and heavy metal control, safe for long-term human consumption.
3. Wide Application Scenarios
Recommended dosage and application for mainstream global formulas:
-
Beverages & Dairy (0.5% - 5%)：Sugar-free drinks, functional fiber beverages, coffee/tea drinks, yogurt, milk beverages, formula milk powder. Functions: fiber fortification, water retention, texture stabilization, taste improvement.
-
Bakery & Meal Replacement (0.5% - 10%)：Bread, cookies, pastries, cereal bars, meal replacement powder. Functions: replace sugar and fat, delay aging, keep soft texture, increase dietary fiber content.
-
Confectionery & Frozen Food (0.5% - 5%)：Sugar-free candy, jelly, ice cream, frozen dough. Functions: anti-cavity, reduce freezing point, inhibit ice crystal formation, maintain smooth taste.
-
Meat Products (2.5% - 20%)：Sausage, ham, dried meat. Functions: water retention, reduce cooking loss, replace fat, improve meat texture and elasticity.
-

5. FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between Polydextrose and common dietary fiber?
A: Most conventional dietary fibers are insoluble with rough taste and poor fluidity. Poly-D-glucose is 100% water-soluble with transparent solution and smooth mouthfeel, suitable for high-end transparent beverages. Meanwhile, it has stronger prebiotic activity and better processing adaptability than ordinary fiber.
Q2: Is Poly-D-glucose safe for daily consumption? What is the recommended dosage?
A: It is a globally recognized safe food ingredient. The recommended daily intake for adults is 10-20g. Moderate consumption causes no side effects. Excessive intake may cause slight flatulence, which is a normal physical reaction.
Q3: Can it withstand high-temperature sterilization and baking?
A: Yes. It has excellent thermal and acid stability. It remains stable under high-temperature baking and beverage sterilization conditions, without decomposition, discoloration or flavor deterioration.
Q4: Can it replace sugar alcohols such as erythritol?
A: It can partially replace sugar alcohols and sucrose. It provides mild sweetness, supplements dietary fiber and optimizes product texture. Compound use with erythritol can achieve sucrose-like taste and reduce formula cost.
Q5: Is it suitable for diabetic and weight-loss populations?
A: Absolutely yes. Ultra-low GI, no glycemic response and no calorie burden. It is the preferred functional fiber for sugar-free and low-calorie healthy food.
