Polydextrose can use as a functional food additive, may supplythe needs of food fiber for human body. the internationalnutriology experts have listed it as "the seventh nutrient". It isan important raw material to produce health-care food of low heat,low fat, low cholesterol and low natrium. Polydextrose can also beeaten directly after melt into milk or water.

n1.To adjust the metabolizing of fat nClinic experiments showthat a proper sum of soluble fibre in small intestines can producea layer of membrane, which can prevent the absorbing of fat in thealimentary canal and accelerate the excretion of lipoid compounds,so that it is able to adjust the sum of fat in blood and preventblood vessel disease in heart and brain. n2.To improve themetabolizing of glucide nsoluble fibres can reduce the absorptionof glucide, while they themselves can not be absorbed. Low-sugarand low-heat food is helpful to diabetics. n3.To cure constipationand prevent diarrhea nsoluble fibres can preserve moisture,accelerate the peristalsis of intestines, soften and enlargedejecta, and in the end expedite excretion. Obvious curative effectcan be seen after 3 days` use. n4. To enhance immunity abilitysince soluble fibres are good at preserving moisture, they candilute the consistence of the harmful things in intestines andexpedite excretion. Clinic practice proves that soluble fibres canprevent and cure cancer, particularly colon cancer, in some ways.n5.To control the excessive taking of food nSoluble fibres can helppeople to prevent excessive taking of food and accumulation of fat.Polydextrose is a new star among food additives. It brings a neweffective way to health-care food industry, and it is called "the7th nutriment" which is essential to people`s body. In recentyears, as one of the indispensable components of many foodstuffsand health-care food, meal fibres are more and more attractive topeople. Among food additives, soluble meal fibres can be used asthickness-adding additives, fill-in additives, and formulaadditives. It is an important raw material to produce health-carefood of low heat, low fat, low cholesterol and low natrium. It canplay some important roles in foodstuff, such as taking on necessarysize, improving oily mouth feeling of food, etc. With low freezingpoint, and it can be used to make cold meal and sweet snack. Itwill never lead to decayed tooth. In wet tender food, soluble mealfibres can increase its freshness and tenderness. Polydextrose canalso be eaten directly after it is melt into milk or water.
