Healthy dietary fiber Organic Tapioca Resistant Dextrin

Resistant dextrin

Resistant dextrin is also a Dietary Fiber sourced from corn or tapioca. It is made via conversion of the digestible glucose constituents in corn starch into non digestible ones.  It has been available in the United States since 1999.  Soluble Corn Fiber is up to 90% fiber and used for fiber enrichment of a variety of foods. Because it can often replace the functionality of sugar, it is often used for sugar and calorie reduction. It is soluble, meaning it dissolves in water, and is stable in heat so it can be used in hot beverages, baking, or cooking.

Resistant dextrin ferments at a slower rate than maltodextrin, which helps minimize many of the negative side effects (e.g. bloating and flatulence) that are experienced with the Soluble Fiber . Unlike maltodextrin, Resistant Maltodextrin can be used as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of good bacteria in the intestine. It may be better at regulating blood sugar levels during and after meals by not causing as steep of a blood sugar spike when compared to regular maltodextrin. More importantly, Indigestible Maltodextrin does not alter insulin levels, so may be a better alternative than regular maltodextrin for individuals living with diabetes.

Bailong is the leading production enterprise of Fructo-Oligosachharide Powder 95% (FOS), Isomalto-Oligosaccharide Powder (IMO), Xylo-Oligosaccharide Powder and syrup (XOS), Polydextrose Powder and syrup, Resistant Dextrin Powder and syrup,  Allulose Crystal and syrup and Galacto-Oligosaccharide Powder and syrup (GOS) in China. Those products can replace sugar and be applied in healthy food, functional beverages, baby food etc.

Functional characteristics：
1. Good processing stability.
The resistant dextrin has processing characteristics such as heat resistance, acid resistance, and freeze resistance, and the viscosity of the aqueous solution is very low, and the variation of the viscosity value with changes in the shear rate and temperature is small.
 
2. Good dissolution, sweet and odorless.
Does not affect the finished product flavor, can modify the bad flavor, has the function to improve the taste.
 
3.Low calories, suitable for weight loss people.
Resistant dextrins supply very low, long-lasting energy, increase satiety, delay hunger, and have some effect on weight control. Resistant dextrin has a high tolerated dose, a threshold of 45 grams per day, no symptoms of gastrointestinal discomfort, and no diarrhea at doses of 100 grams per day.
 
4. Adjust blood sugar.
The resistant dextrin is mainly suitable for diabetics to eat by mainly absorbing glucose and inhibiting the activity of amylase, delaying the degradation of starch and absorption of glucose, and inhibiting the increase of blood glucose after meals.
 
5. The benefits of Prebiotics reduce the burden on the intestines and prevent intestinal diseases.
In China, resistant dextrin was identified as a prebiotic product by the “Public Nutrition Improvement Microecological Project” at the end of 2008. Its goal is to increase the use of prebiotics in China to improve intestinal dysbacteriosis, which has been identified as a key sub-health factor. Resistant dextrin ferments in the colon to produce exercise fatty acids, inhibit the growth of spoilage bacteria; as a substrate to promote the proliferation of probiotics, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria, repair intestinal epithelial barrier function, inhibiting tumor cell proliferation, inhibiting carcinogenic chemical activity and antioxidant .
 
6. Prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
The health effects of the intake of resistant dextrin on serum have been confirmed in mice, chickens, dogs, pigs, and humans. The results show that continuous intake of resistant dextrin can reduce serum cholesterol and neutral fat concentration and body fat , To meet the needs of various hyperlipidemia patients in improving lipid metabolism.
