MALTODEXTRIN are widely used in the food industry as thickeners, stabilizers and humectants. Because it can be quickly dissolved and digested, it is often added to a variety of foods, such as beverages, candy, condiments, dairy products and baby food, to increase the taste and improve the texture of the food.
The method of preparing MALTODEXTRIN usually involves enzymatically decomposing starch into smaller sugar molecules, and then purifying and drying to obtain a pure MALTODEXTRIN product.
MALTODEXTRIN is safe under normal use and has no obvious toxicity. However, for people with diabetes, liver dysfunction, or abnormal glucose metabolism, excessive intake of MALTODEXTRIN may cause blood sugar to rise. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to reasonable control of intake during use and follow the advice of doctors or health experts.
It is worth noting that although MALTODEXTRIN is widely used in the food industry, it is still recommended to check the product label when buying food and avoid excessive intake.
