Made from the polymerization of glucose and sorbitol, low-energy dietary fiber
Good heat resistance and stability, easy-to-process formula
As a mid-chain dietary fiber, regulate the intestinal flora
Commonly used in beverages, bakery products, and confectionery
Polydextrose is a soluble dietary fiber and prebiotic with over 90% fiber content and only 1 kcal/g. It dissolves easily in water, mimics sucrose's texture, and effectively replaces sugars and fats while improving mouthfeel.
Available in powder, granule, and liquid forms, it supports low glycemic response, satiety, weight management, and digestive tolerance. Ideal for food, beverages, health products, and pharmaceuticals, it enables “high dietary fiber” claims and offers a cost advantage over similar ingredients.
Key benefits include low calories, bulking, browning reaction, moisture retention, texture improvement, and compatibility with clean label and diabetic-friendly products. It remains stable across temperatures and pH levels. Commonly used in baked goods, beverages, dairy, confectionery, snacks, and condiments.
