What Are the Differences Between Fructooligosaccharides and Isomaltooligosaccharides?

Table of Content [Hide]

    The differences between fructooligosaccharides and isomaltooligosaccharides:

    1. The scientific human body test proves: Fructooligosaccharide can rapidly multiply Bifidobacterium by 10-100 times. However, isomaltooligosaccharides can only multiply 2 to 4 times.

    2. Fructooligosaccharide is a water-soluble dietary fiber with low calorific value and is difficult to digest. Not only can isomaltooligosaccharides be hydrolyzed by digestive enzymes in the body, but 25% of them are also converted into glucose, and the calorific value is 5 times that of glucose, which is more than sucrose. high.

    3. Fructooligosaccharide has the effect of lowering blood fat and improving lipid metabolism, which is the unique effect of fructooligosaccharide.

    4. The effective daily intake of oligofructose is better than that of isomaltooligosaccharides. The effective daily intake of oligofructose is 3g, while the effective daily intake of isomaltooligosaccharides is 9g, which is more than 3 times that of oligofructose. In terms of biological potency ratio, the amount of isomaltooligosaccharides used is at least 3 times that of fructooligosaccharides powder.

    5. Fos powder has a refreshing taste than sucrose, pure taste, without any aftertaste, can provide a more round mouthfeel, longer-lasting fruit aroma, and greatly improve the appearance and taste quality of food products, which is low in different wheat What glycan does not have is one of the reasons why oligofructose is widely used.
