Use of erythritol

Introduction: erythritol is a newly developed 4-carbon sugar alcohol, which can be produced by glucose fermentation and is a white crystalline powder What are the uses of erythritol? Erythritol is the only functional sugar alcohol produced by microbial fermentation in the world Based on the good health effect of erythritol, high thermal stability, low moisture absorption and low freezing point, it is widely used in many fields, such as food, medicine, chemical industry and so on So what are the uses of erythritol? Next, let's introduce Baibai safety net in detail Erythritol white crystal, slightly sweet, relative sweetness 0.65 It's cool The calorific value is low, about one tenth of that of sucrose Soluble in water (37%, 25 ℃), it is easy to crystallize due to its low solubility (compared with sucrose), so it is suitable for foods with sucrose taste, such as chocolate and table sugar Not degraded by enzymes, it can only be excreted from blood to urine through the kidney (easily absorbed by the small intestine), not involved in sugar metabolism and blood sugar change, so it is suitable for diabetic patients to eat Not fermenting in colon, can avoid gastrointestinal discomfort No dental caries Melting point 126 ℃ Application of erythritol low calorie sweetener; diluent of high sweetness sweetener It can be used for chocolate, baked products, candy, table sugar, soft drinks, etc., with a consumption of 3% In GB 2760-2014, it can be used appropriately in various foods according to production needs Erythritol is anti caries Erythritol is not used by human oral bacteria, so it will not produce acid substances to cause harm to teeth, which will lead to tooth caries and inhibit the growth of oral bacteria, so as to protect teeth The above is a small compilation of knowledge about the use of erythritol I hope it can help you who are interested Do you want to know more about erythritol?
