Polydextrose is a water-soluble dietary fiber with the chemical formula (C6H10O5) n. It is a white or almost white solid particle, easily soluble in water, with a solubility of 70%. The pH value of a 10% aqueous solution is 2.5-7.0, with no special taste. It is a food component with health functions and can supplement the water-soluble dietary fiber needed by the human body. After entering the human digestive system, special physiological metabolic functions are produced to prevent and treat constipation and fat deposition.
Function characteristics:
1. Regulating lipid metabolism: Polyglucose can create a membrane in the small intestine and wrap around some food fat, effectively limiting the absorption of fat in the digestive tract, promoting the excretion of lipid compounds, increasing satiety, reducing food intake, thereby achieving the effects of regulating blood lipids, reducing fat accumulation, and preventing obesity.
2. Lowering cholesterol: Polyglucose can adsorb organic molecules such as bile acids and cholesterol variants, inhibit the increase of total cholesterol (TC) concentration, reduce the synthesis and absorption of bile acids and salts, lower the levels of cholesterol in human plasma and liver, prevent and treat coronary atherosclerosis, gallstones, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
3. Reduce the absorption of sugar: polydextrose can prevent food from fully contacting with digestive juice, inhibit the secretion of glucagon, promote the absorption of glucose to slow down, thus reducing the postprandial blood sugar level, giving full play to the role of insulin, and preventing diabetes.
4. Prevention and treatment of constipation: Polyglucose can absorb water and expand in the human intestine, maintain moisture, increase fecal volume, stimulate intestinal peristalsis, accelerate bowel frequency, and play a role in moistening the intestines, promoting bowel movement, and preventing constipation.
5. Can detoxify and nourish the skin: Polyglucose can effectively regulate the pH value of the intestine, improve the breeding environment of beneficial bacteria, rapidly expand the beneficial bacterial population such as bifidobacteria, inhibit the growth of saprophytic bacteria, prevent intestinal mucosal atrophy, and timely excrete toxins and metabolic waste from the body, avoiding toxins from being discharged from the skin, achieving the effect of skin beautification and preventing the occurrence of diseases such as hemorrhoids, gastroenteritis, and colon cancer.
