Orange Powder

Orange powder is a natural dietary fiber, which is a powder processed from orange pulp. Orange powder has many functions and effects, including:

Improving intestinal health: The dietary fiber in orange powder can promote intestinal peristalsis, improve constipation problems, and also help prevent diarrhea.

Enhance immunity: Orange powder is rich in vitamin C and other nutrients, which can enhance human immunity and improve resistance.

Prevent colds: The vitamin C in orange powder can help enhance human immunity and is helpful in preventing colds and other respiratory diseases.

It should be noted that although orange powder has many functions and effects, it is not suitable for everyone. Some people may be allergic to orange powder, or people with diseases such as diabetes should consume it under the guidance of a doctor.

   

Oligofructose

Fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS), also known as oligofructose or fructo-oligosaccharide, is a natural active ingredient and an excellent water-soluble dietary fiber. It is a kind of prebiotic. The sweetness of oligofructose is 30%-60% of that of sucrose, and it is more refreshing and pure than the sweetness of sucrose. At the same time, oligofructose cannot be directly digested and absorbed by the human body, but can only be absorbed and utilized by intestinal bacteria, so it will not cause obesity.

 

Advantages:

  1. Regulating intestinal health: Oligofructose is a recognized bifidobacterial factor that can effectively promote the proliferation of beneficial bacteria, such as bifidobacteria, and can significantly inhibit the proliferation of harmful bacteria , reduce the formation and accumulation of harmful substances in the intestine, and has the function of regulating intestinal health, which can effectively prevent constipation and diarrhea and improve the body's immunity.
  2. Lowering blood sugar: Oligofructose is an indigestible oligosaccharide in the body and cannot be hydrolyzed by the digestive enzymes in the human body. It can reach the colon intact and be fully metabolized by the microorganisms in the colon. It can also produce short-chain fatty acids, increase the secretion of digestive tract hormones, and improve insulin sensitivity, thereby achieving the purpose of lowering blood sugar.
 
 

 

 

 

  1. Promoting calcium absorption: Oligofructose is a water-soluble dietary fiber that cannot be digested and absorbed by the stomach and small intestine.  After entering the large intestine, it ferments to produce organic acids, which lowers the pH of the intestine, forms an acidic environment, acidifies the contents of the lumen, increases calcium solubility, and promotes calcium absorption in the body.
  2. Improve blood lipid health: Studies have shown that the intake of oligofructose has a good adsorption effect on cholesterol, which can reduce the absorption of cholesterol by the gastrointestinal tract, reduce serum cholesterol and blood lipid concentration, and improve blood lipid health.
     

Inulin

Inulin is a water-soluble dietary fiber. It is another form of energy storage in plants besides starch. It is a type of fructan. Since it is mainly derived from plants, it is very common. For example, wheat, onions and bananas all contain inulin.

First, as a prebiotic, inulin can promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, regulate the intestinal flora, promote digestion, increase appetite, and enhance the body's immunity. Due to its good regulation and balancing ability, inulin can solve many common digestive problems, such as constipation.

Secondly, as a dietary fiber, inulin is not easily decomposed by gastric acid after ingestion, which can significantly increase satiety and thus reduce the total food intake. Experiments have also shown that adding inulin to daily diet can reduce weight by 2-16 catties within a 12-18 week observation period, and the effect is still very obvious.

In addition, inulin can generate short-chain fatty acids, which in turn absorb intestinal fat, which is very helpful for controlling blood lipids. Studies have found that adding 9g of inulin to cereal breakfast can reduce cholesterol by 8.2% and triglycerides by 26.5% after 4 weeks. In addition, inulin can also increase sensitivity to insulin, thereby lowering blood sugar. Finally, inulin has a little-known effect, which is to regulate emotions and relieve depression! It is reported that inulin contains oligofructose, which can activate neurocytokines, reduce damage to neurons, and has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on mild and moderate depression and anxiety.

Although inulin has many benefits, you should pay attention to the dosage. If you take it for a long time and in large quantities, it is easy to cause stomach discomfort, even cramps and diarrhea! Generally speaking, taking about 12g a day will have a better health care effect. In addition, it is not recommended for patients with irritable bowel syndrome and those who are allergic to inulin.

 

Sorbitol

The chemical name is 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexanehexol, and the chemical formula is C6H14O6. It is widely distributed in the fruits of plants in nature and is often used in food as a sweetener, loosening agent and moisturizer, etc.

Sorbitol has a refreshing sweet taste, which is 60% of the sweetness of sucrose. Its calorific value is similar to that of sucrose, and its combustion heat is -3025.5KJ/mol. 1g of sorbitol produces 16.7kJ of heat in the human body. Eating too much sucrose can cause dental caries in children, and it has great health hazards for patients with diabetes, obesity, etc. However, sorbitol is not used by some bacteria and is an important raw material for producing sugar-free candies and various anti-caries foods. Sorbitol in the metabolic process is not controlled by insulin and has no effect on blood sugar levels. Sorbitol liquid with a content of 69 to 71% (water as solvent) is mostly used in the food industry.
