What is the Ingredient NHDC?
NHDC is A high sweetness sweetener of natural origin, full name is Neohesperidin Dihydrochalcone, it is a dihydrochalcone compound. Its sweetness is about 1500-1800 times that of sucrose, but the heat is extremely low and almost not absorbed by human metabolism. NHDC has unique sweet characteristics - after the taste of the sweet release is slow, but durable, and with a slight cool feeling and a licorice like aftertaste, often used to improve food flavor.
NHDC as a food additive and food flavor is recognized by many countries and regions. In China, NHDC is included in GB2760-2011 standard; In the United States, it is classified as a Generally Recognized Safe Substance (GRAS) by FEMA; In the European Union, it is included in the list of food flavor enhancers; In Australia, it is approved as a "flavoring substance"
Today we'll going to learn more information about HNDC.
The NHDC Core advantages.
(1)High sweetness and low calories: very low amount can replace sucrose, suitable for low-sugar, sugar-free foods.
(2)Strong stability: high temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, suitable for baking, beverage and other processing environment.
(3)Flavor enhancement: Can mask bitter and metallic taste, and with sugar alcohols (such as erythritol) can improve the taste.
(4)High safety: Approved by FAO/WHO (JECFA), the European Union and other authorities as a food additive (E number: E959), the daily allowable intake (ADI) is 0-5 mg/kg body weight.
2. The NHDC Applications
|
The mainly applications of NHDC(Neohesperidin Dihydrochalcone) |
|
|
Food sweeteners/sweet enhancers |
Combined with sucralose, polyol sweeteners, saccharin, etc., it has a strong synergistic effect, which can improve sweetness, reduce the amount of sweetener, reduce cost, and make the sweetness more pure. Widely used in juice drinks, milk, fruit wine, desserts, baked goods, candy, chewing gum, sauces, low energy drinks, pickles, vinegar, betel nut, cold fruit, etc |
|
Sweeteners for functional foods/health supplements |
NHDC does not undergo heat conversion in the body, is a low caloric value sweetener, and has hypoglycemic, cholesterol-lowering, antioxidant and other physiological activities. Especially suitable for functional food, health products, dietary supplements and other health food as a sugar substitute |
|
Drugs and cosmetics raw materials |
The physiological function of NHDC determines the raw materials that can be used to manufacture drugs for lowering blood lipids and blood sugar, liver protection agents and stomach drugs. |
|
Taste modifier (bitter masking agent) and flavor modifier |
NHDC can act on bitter receptors when it is below the sweetness threshold, so as to improve the threshold of bitter taste, and the effect of bitterness is significantly better than that of general sweeteners. |
|
Food flavors and flavors |
The flavor type of NHDC is similar to maltol and ethyl maltol, and can produce obvious synergistic effects with maltol and ethyl maltol |
|
It has a wide range of uses in feed |
As a sweetener added to the feed can make the feed taste super sweet, can increase the appetite of baby pigs, significantly promote their growth and reduce the feed consumption per kilogram of weight gain, |
With the deepening of the global sugar reduction trend, NHDC is an ideal alternative to artificial sweeteners (such as saccharin and aspartame) due to its natural origin, high sweetness and versatility. In the future, it has broad application potential in the fields of health food and special medical food.
