Application of Xos-oligosaccharide

1. Application of xos-oligosaccharides in beverages

The acid and heat stability of xos-oligosaccharides make it have obvious advantages in acidic beverages. In addition to the highly selective proliferation of bifidobacteria, the addition of xos-oligosaccharides can also endow beverages with low-sugar, low-calorie properties, and improve nutrition and health care. Double value, xos-oligosaccharide helps product function upgrade and meets the needs of different consumer groups for beverages.

For example, the common fermented milk-containing beverages, lactic acid bacteria beverages, fruit vinegar beverages and other acidic beverages on the market, other oligosaccharides are not stable enough in an acidic environment, while xos-oligosaccharides can maintain structural stability under acidic conditions and achieve targeted effects. site, rapidly and efficiently proliferate bifidobacteria, so that the health care function produced by the proliferation of probiotics can be better reflected.

2. Application of xos-oligosaccharides in bakery products

Baked food is a kind of food that is based on cereals and uses oil, sugar, eggs, etc. as the main raw materials. It is characterized by high oil, high sugar, and even high salt sugar, making it very unsuitable for consumers who need to restrict their diets.

Therefore, the development of low-energy baked goods has become a development trend of health upgrading, and ingredients with low calorie and low sweetness in sugar sources have become the first choice.

The research and development results of xos-oligosaccharide cake show that adding xos-oligosaccharide to the cake recipe can endow the cake with low-sugar and sugar-free properties, realize the functionalization of the product, and make the cake with soft taste, unique flavor and texture state Uniform, suitable for public taste, has broad market prospects, and has the effect of improving bifidobacteria in human intestinal tract;

The research and development of xos-oligosaccharide biscuits shows that adding xos-oligosaccharide can not only meet the requirements of the national standard of biscuits, but also give the biscuits a bright color, reduce the content of digestible sugar in the biscuits, and reduce the The calorie value of the product is increased, the functional edible value of the biscuits is improved, the consumer's demand for sugar-free shortbread biscuits is realized, and the market competitiveness of the product is enhanced.

At the same time, xos-oligosaccharides can reduce water activity, and adding xos-oligosaccharides to baked goods is beneficial to product moisture control and prolong shelf life.

3. Application of xos-oligosaccharides in functional health food

With the improvement of living standards, people's demand for functional food is increasing.

According to the analysis of experts, the focus of health food in the future is to develop health food for the prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer and diabetes, and the development of health food for regulating physiological functions is also becoming more and more intense. Xos-oligosaccharide is an ideal functional food additive, which can be widely used in the development and production of health food.

The metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in diabetics is disturbed to varying degrees, which causes a series of complications. Nutritional issues are particularly important in the control and treatment of diabetes. Dietary conditioning is the most basic treatment for diabetes.

The selection of sweeteners in auxiliary hypoglycemic health food is particularly important. The sweeteners used should not affect the patient's blood sugar level as a prerequisite, including no-energy or low-energy sweeteners or bulk sweeteners.

Xos-oligosaccharides are not hydrolyzed by human digestive enzymes, and their metabolism is independent of insulin. Therefore, xos-oligosaccharides do not affect the blood sugar of patients and can meet the needs of diabetic patients.
