The Leader of the "Healthy Sugar" Trend--Crystalline Fructose

Nowadays, low sugar and low calories have become the consensus of global consumers and the food industry. How to "reduce sugar" has also become a hot topic in the innovation and development of the functional beverage industry. Whether it is the health upgrade of traditional carbonated drinks or the introduction of new functional drinks, the core appeal of "sugar reduction" cannot be avoided.

As a new natural sugar source made from corn or sucrose through hydrolysis and conversion, "crystalline fructose" has low caloric value, high sweetness, good taste, and fruity aroma. It is metabolized faster in the body than glucose, is easily absorbed and utilized by the body and has a low glycemic index. It is suitable for patients with glucose metabolism and liver dysfunction to supplement energy. It is not easy to cause dental caries. Therefore, it is also suitable for diabetics, obese patients and children. Based on this, crystalline fructose has become a new option of many beverage companies. Unique nutrition and health properties.

Compared with white sugar, it has the advantages of low glycemic index, anti-caries, high sweetness, cold sweetness, enhanced flavor, moisturizing, not easy to crystallize, strong permeability, and high solubility in food manufacturing.

Compared with synthetic sugar substitutes, crystalline fructose has more natural advantages in nutrition and safety. It can be said that crystalline fructose is one of the healthiest and safest sugars known in the world and is a nutritional functional sugar product.

Advantages of Crystalline Fructose:

Low GI, stable blood sugar elevation.

After crystalline fructose is absorbed by the human body, its metabolism does not depend on insulin and can be directly absorbed by the intestines, effectively reducing insulin secretion and stabilizing the rise in blood sugar. It is suitable for people with diabetes and those with high blood pressure.

Strong moisture absorption performance.

Among sugars, fructose is the most hygroscopic. After crystalline fructose absorbs 6%-12% of water, it no longer releases or absorbs water. It can inhibit dehydration and starch aging of baked products, maintain a soft taste, and extend shelf life.

Prevent tooth decay.

Its application in the food and beverage industry solves health problems such as dental caries caused by the use of white sugar in products. Crystalline fructose is not easily converted into acid by oral streptococci and can inhibit the production of glucan by the bacteria, thus inhibiting the occurrence of dental caries. It is suitable for the health upgrade of the products of various food companies.

Enhance flavor.

Compared with other sweets, the sweetness peak of fructose appears early. When other flavor peaks in the food appear, the sweetness of fructose has subsided. This will not cover up other flavors of the food and can be harmonious with various different flavors. The original flavor of other fruits will not be covered or confused by the addition of fructose. This property makes crystalline fructose widely used in the food and beverage industry.

Achieve healthy product upgrades.

In the field of baking food production, crystalline fructose is one of the few natural sugar substitutes on the market that can perfectly replace white sugar (including sucrose, beet sugar, etc.) to produce the Maillard reaction. It has natural and healthy quality advantages and can promote the health upgrade of baked products.

Crystalline fructose is deeply involved in the health industry chain.

1. As a source of ingredients in food production and processing.

2. As the main raw material for special nutritional foods.

3. Used as high-grade nutritious food or cooking sweetener in family life.

4. In terms of medical treatment, it is listed in the pharmacopoeia of some European and American countries. It is used as a sugar substitute by diabetic patients to adjust nutritional balance in the form of oral administration or injection.

5. Used in various special dietary products for special groups of people.

Crystalline fructose leads a new era of functional drinks.

Currently, the international community is paying more and more attention to "sugar" in beverages, and the use of "healthy sugar" in beverages has become a trend. More and more food and beverage companies are using crystalline fructose in new product development to improve product competitiveness while ensuring product safety and taste.
