What’s Organic Isomaltoligosaccharide?
Organic Isomaltoligosaccharide (IMO) is a naturally derived prebiotic fiber obtained from organic sources like corn and other plant-based materials. Known for its mild sweetness and exceptional digestibility, IMO is often used as a sugar substitute and fiber supplement. It offers numerous health benefits, including improved gut health, better blood sugar control, and reduced calorie intake. This product is organic, non-GMO, and free from artificial additives, making it an ideal choice for clean-label food and beverage formulations.
Production Process:
- Extraction: Isomaltoligosaccharide is produced through the enzymatic conversion of starch from organic plant sources, mainly corn or tapioca. This process involves breaking down the starch into shorter chains of sugar molecules.
- Purification: After the enzymatic process, the IMO is separated and purified to remove unwanted by-products.
- Drying: The final product is spray-dried into a fine, white powder, maintaining the integrity of the prebiotic fiber while ensuring easy incorporation into various formulations.
Key Features:
- Prebiotic Fiber: Promotes gut health by stimulating the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract.
- Low Glycemic Index: Has minimal impact on blood sugar levels, making it suitable for diabetic or low-glycemic diets.
- Reduced Caloric Content: Offers a sweet taste with fewer calories than regular sugar, making it a great choice for calorie-conscious consumers.
- Mild Sweetness: Provides a mild sweetness that is similar to sugar, with no bitter aftertaste often found in other sugar substitutes.
- Natural & Organic: Sourced from organic materials and produced using natural, non-GMO processes.
- Versatile: Suitable for a variety of applications, including beverages, snacks, protein bars, and baked goods.
