What is organic crystalline fructose?
Organic Crystalline Fructose is a natural, high-purity sweetener derived from organic fruit sources such as corn or other fructose-rich crops. It is a monosaccharide, meaning it is a simple sugar, making it an ideal choice for individuals seeking a lower glycemic index alternative to traditional sugars. This crystalline form of fructose is highly soluble in water, has a clean, sweet taste, and is commonly used in food, beverages, and dietary supplements as a natural sweetener or to enhance flavor without adding excessive calories.
Production Process:
- Sourcing: Derived from organic fruits or organic corn, grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers to ensure the highest quality.
- Extraction: The fructose is extracted through a natural enzymatic process that isolates it from other sugars, producing a highly concentrated and pure form.
- Crystallization: After extraction, the fructose undergoes a crystallization process, resulting in fine white crystals with a purity of at least 98%.
- Quality Control: The final product is rigorously tested for purity, moisture content, and microbiological safety to ensure that it meets strict organic standards.
Key Features:
- High Purity: Typically contains over 98% fructose, providing a highly concentrated sweetening effect.
- Low Glycemic Index: Fructose has a low glycemic index, making it a suitable option for individuals managing blood sugar levels.
- Natural Sweetener: Provides a naturally sweet taste without the need for added chemicals or artificial sweeteners.
- Highly Soluble: Easily dissolves in both hot and cold liquids, making it ideal for use in beverages and smoothies.
- Low Calorie: Contains fewer calories per gram compared to sucrose, making it a popular choice in low-calorie and sugar-free formulations.
- Versatile: Ideal for use in a variety of food products, beverages, and supplements to reduce sugar content while maintaining sweetness.
