Isomaltooligosaccharide is a type of starch sugar that occurs in nature as a component of amylopectin or polysaccharides. It is only found in small amounts in some fermented foods such as soy sauce and rice wine. Because it can promote the significant proliferation of bifidobacteria in the human body, has the function of water-soluble dietary fiber, low caloric value, and anti-caries properties, it is a widely used functional oligosaccharide.
Isomaltooligosaccharide is difficult to digest by gastric enzymes, has low sweetness and low calories, and basically does not increase blood sugar and blood lipids.
Isomaltooligosaccharide can promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria in the intestine, inhibit the formation of harmful intestinal bacteria and putrefactive substances, increase vitamin content, and improve the body's immunity.
Maintain the balance of normal intestinal bacterial flora, especially in the elderly and infants. Bifidobacterium can inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria and spoilage bacteria, and prevent constipation and gastrointestinal disorders.
Reduce blood cholesterol levels and prevent and treat high blood pressure.
Prevent dental caries. Isomaltooligosaccharide is not utilized by Streptococcus dental caries and is not decomposed by oral enzymes, thus preventing dental caries.
