Polydextrose
ZIO
Polydextrose is a soluble dietary fiber derived from glucose through partial polymerization. It appears as a white to light yellow powder, easily soluble in water, with a neutral to slightly sweet taste. With only 1 kcal/g (about 25% of sucrose), it is widely recognized as a low-calorie, functional ingredient in the food, beverage, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries.
Polydextrose serves as a dietary fiber supplement that supports digestive health, weight management, and blood sugar regulation. In the food industry, it functions as a bulking agent, stabilizer, and texturizer, helping improve product quality while reducing sugar and calories.
Name: Polydextrose
Molecular Formula: (C₆H₁₀O₅)n
CAS No.: 68424-04-4
E Number: E1200
Appearance: White or light yellow powder
Taste: Neutral to slightly sweet
Solubility: Freely soluble in water, clear solution
Calories: Approx. 1 kcal/g (25% of sucrose)
Dietary Fiber Content: ≥90%
Stability: Heat and acid resistant, suitable for various processes
Packaging: 25kg/bag, OEM available
Food Industry
Low-calorie desserts, sugar-free candies, chocolate.
Functional beverages and dairy-based drinks.
Bakery products for better texture and moisture retention.
Nutraceuticals & Health Foods
Dietary fiber supplement for gut health.
Supports weight management and glycemic control.
Pharmaceuticals
Used as excipient, diluent, and stabilizer in tablets.
Other Uses
Widely applied in meal replacements, solid drinks, nutrition bars.
Low calorie, low glycemic index: 1-2 kcal/g. Polydextrose is an ideal dual-functional ingredient for developing low-calorie healthy foods. It can effectively reduce the post-meal glycemic effect by replacing sucrose.
Application | Application effect analysis |
| drinks | Provide appropriate viscosity, increase beverage flavor and solid content; increase dietary fiber content; dietary fiber can be used to supplement the taste of sugar-free beverages. |
| Dairy | Improve flavor, texture and sweetness; can replace part of fat; can be used as a prebiotic in lactic acid bacteria beverages, and also plays a role in thickening and stabilizing. |
| Baking | Good water holding capacity is beneficial to the preservation of the product and improves the taste; inhibits starch aging; reduces the sweetness of the product and provides a sugar-like texture and taste. |
| ice cream | It can replace part of fat and sugar, effectively improve product texture and taste, obtain a refreshing and smooth taste, and reduce the formation of ice crystals. |
| Snack foods | Replace part of the sugar; delay starch coagulation and change thermosetting properties; have good moisture retention, improve texture and taste, and extend shelf life. |
| Alcohol | It effectively increases the solids and the viscosity of the wine; at the same time, it prevents the precipitation of dissolved substances in the wine, improves the clarity, enhances the flavor of the wine, and makes it taste mellower and more refreshing. |
| Meat products | Maintain the moisture of meat products, reduce calories, reduce oil oxidation, extend the shelf life of meat products; improve the yield rate, etc.; increase the elasticity of meat products. |
| Noodles | It can improve the chewiness of pasta products, enhance the viscoelasticity and flexibility of dough; during the frozen storage of dough, it can reduce the formation of ice crystals and protect the internal tissue structure. |
Low Calorie – suitable for weight management and diabetic-friendly foods.
High Fiber – provides essential dietary fiber intake.
Excellent Stability – resistant to heat and acid, easy to formulate.
Globally Recognized – GRAS approved, EFSA accepted, safe for use.
