Description
Dried inulin is a white amorphous powder. When the concentration of inulin solution reaches 10%-30%, the gel begins to form, and the concentration reaches 40%-50%, which can form a very solid gel. Inulin is hygroscopic and has the ability to bind free water, which can reduce water activity. This can be fully utilized in food processing to delay the evaporation of water, prevent products from becoming stale, and extend the shelf life and shelf life of food.
Advantages:
Dietary Fiber Supplement
Inulin promotes digestive health, increases satiety, and improves bowel function.
Blood Sugar Regulation
Inulin slows sugar absorption, helps stabilize blood glucose levels, beneficial for diabetics.
Enhances Mineral Absorption
Inulin improves intestinal absorption of calcium and magnesium, supporting bone health.
Prebiotic Properties
Feeds beneficial gut bacteria (e.g., Bifidobacteria), improving gut microbiome balance.
Low-Calorie Sweetener
Inulin provides mild sweetness without added calories, ideal for weight management.
Supports Immune System
A balanced gut microbiome is linked to enhanced immune function.
Cholesterol Reduction
Inulin may lower LDL ("bad" cholesterol), improving cardiovascular health.

Application
Based on its various health functions, inulin is widely used in consumer products around the world. Both from a nutritional point of view and from a technical point of view, the application of inulin has two major advantages: improving the acceptability of food and balancing the nutritional composition. At the same time, inulin has also been used in animal feed, animal food, cosmetics, medicine and other fields to a certain extent, and the development prospect is considerable.
Processing low-fat food (such as cream, spread food)
Inulin is an excellent fat substitute and forms a creamy structure when fully mixed with water, which makes it easy to replace fat in foods and provides a smooth taste, good balance and complete flavor. It can replace the fat with fiber, increase the tightness and taste of the product, and steadily improve the dispersion of the emulsion, and replace 30 to 60% of the fat in the cream and food processing.
Configure a high-fiber diet
Inulin has a good solubility in water, which allows it to be combined with water-based systems, rich in water-soluble dietary fiber, and unlike other fibers causing precipitation problems, the use of inulin as a fiber ingredient is very convenient, and can improve sensory properties, they can help the human body to obtain a more balanced diet, so it can be used as a high-fiber food ingredient.
Can be used as bifidobacterium proliferation factor, belongs to prebiotic food ingredients
Inulin can be used by beneficial bacteria in the human intestine, especially can make bifidobacteria multiply 5 to 10 times, while harmful bacteria will be significantly reduced, improve the distribution of human flora, promote health, inulin has been listed as an important bifidobacteria proliferation factor.
Used in milk drinks, sour milk, liquid milk
In milk drinks, sour milk, liquid milk to add inulin 2 to 5%, so that the product has the function of dietary fiber and oligosaccharides, but also can increase the consistency, giving the product more creamy taste, better balance structure and fuller flavor.
