Allulose Reduces Obesity!

Under the catalysis of dopamine, people have always found it difficult to resist the "temptation of sugar". Sugar can provide energy for the body's metabolism, and its sweetness can bring people a pleasant mood and help relieve stress. In daily diet, most foods cannot be separated from sugar seasoning, but sugar is also a "sweet killer". Excessive intake of sugar will have a significant impact on human health. It will not only increase the risk of heart disease and cancer, but also increase obesity, osteoporosis, and cause dental caries. It will also accelerate skin aging and wrinkles.

In recent years, with the increasing improvement of people's living standards, excessive intake of high-sugar and high-fat foods, diabetes, hypertension and other diseases are common all over the world. Therefore, it has become crucial to find suitable low-calorie food supplements, and rare sugars with multiple functions have gradually come into people's view.

Rare sugars refer to monosaccharides and their derivatives that rarely exist in nature, which can improve the dietary health of specific groups of people. More and more research results show that rare sugars play an important role in human health. For example, D-allulose has the property of inhibiting cancer and tumors; D-tagatose has a positive impact on dental health by inhibiting the biofilm formed by pathogenic bacteria such as actinomycetes.

Among rare sugars, D-allulose is deeply loved by people because of its special taste and unique physiological functions. And the sweetness of allulose is about 70% of sucrose, but the calories are much lower than sucrose, only 1/10 of sucrose. The US Food and Drug Administration has confirmed it as a generally recognized safe food and it has attracted much attention as an ideal substitute for sucrose.

D-allulose is a rare sugar with almost zero calories, mainly derived from wheat, sugarcane, etc. So far, researchers have been able to prepare D-allulose by two methods: chemical synthesis and biotransformation.

Chemical synthesis method.

The chemical synthesis method uses glucose as the raw material and uses molybdate as a catalyst for high-temperature catalysis to obtain the crude product D-allulose, and then the crude product is cooled and crystallized by an organic solvent to obtain pure D-allulose. Because the purification of intermediate products by chemical synthesis is complex and the environmental pollution is serious, it is not the main method for industrial preparation of D-allulose.

Biotransformation method.

Biotransformation method refers to the method of using biological enzymes to catalyze substrates to generate target products. D-fructose can be converted into D-allulose under the catalysis of D-allulose 3-epimerase.

As a hot new sugar substitute category, D-allulose has high research value and application value. It can be used alone or in combination with other sugar substitutes (stevioside, erythritol, xylitol, etc.) in various fields such as food, medicine, daily chemicals and biology. In addition, in products in different fields, it can show excellent properties that other sugar substitutes do not have.

Researches on D-allulose in China started late, but they have developed rapidly in upstream gene mining and engineering cell construction. Today, with the development of global diseases such as diabetes and obesity, and people's in-depth research on the physiological functions and applications of D-allulose, D-allulose will surely have a broader market value.
