Development Opportunities of Polydextrose in Sugar Reduction Consumption

With the increasing improvement of quality of life, people's dietary characteristics focus on high fat, high calorie and high sugar. Among them, high sugar diet brings many hidden diseases to people and has adverse effects on health. With the continuous improvement of people's health awareness and understanding of the harm of excessive intake of sugars, sugar reducing diet has become a trend all over the world. As a soluble dietary fiber, polydextrose has great development potential in the wave of sugar reduction, and its development opportunities in sugar reduction consumption are worth exploring.

Driven by global health trends and related policies, the sugar reduction food industry is booming, and sugar reduction products emerge in an endless stream and are launched quickly, meeting people's requirements for healthy food and expanding the consumer market. In the past two years, the consumer market for sugar reduction foods has expanded rapidly, and the number and output of new products have grown explosively, bringing huge opportunities for development to upstream industries such as sweeteners, sugar alcohols, and various dietary fibers.

Sweeteners in sugar reduction foods can replace sucrose to provide sweetness, but for other functions of sucrose, sweeteners cannot completely replace them. As the "seventh nutrient" after the sixth nutrient, dietary fiber is a more suitable development opportunity in sugar reduction foods. It can not only make up for the missing functions of sweeteners, but also add other nutrients to sugar reduction foods. Polydextrose has low-energy physiological properties and has the effect of intestinal regulation. It can reduce triglycerides and cholesterol, help control and lose weight, proliferate bifidus factors, promote calcium absorption, improve immunity, and remove toxins from the body. In addition, polydextrose is widely used in dairy and beverages, bakery and meat products, ice cream and condiments.

With the improvement of people's living standards, people consume more fat and sucrose every day, so the so-called "rich man's disease" arises, and more and more serious diseases are closely related to the "rich man's disease". Dietary fiber, as the seventh nutrient, is an ideal raw material for healthy food. It has obvious effects on preventing "rich man's disease" and the derivative diseases of "rich man's disease". Therefore, the application research on dietary fiber is of great significance, which can provide solutions for solving human health problems. Dietary fiber contains a wide range and is rich in types. As far as polydextrose is concerned, as a dietary fiber with unique properties, its application in the food industry has great development potential, and it will definitely achieve greater economic and social benefits. The development opportunities of polydextrose in sugar reduction consumption are very rich and worth looking forward to.
