Product Description

What is isomaltooligosaccharide?

Isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO) is a type of oligosaccharide, which is a short-chain carbohydrate composed of glucose units. It is derived from starch and consists of a mix of glucose molecules linked together in various configurations.

IMO is often classified as a prebiotic fiber because it resists digestion in the human gastrointestinal tract and selectively stimulates the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the colon, such as bifidobacteria. It serves as a food source for these beneficial gut bacteria, promoting their proliferation and enhancing their overall health benefits.

IMO is commonly used as a functional ingredient and sweetener in food and beverage products. It has a mildly sweet taste and a similar texture to sugar. It can be found in various food products, including confectionery, baked goods, dairy products, and beverages, as a low-calorie sweetener and a source of dietary fiber.

The benefits of our isomaltooligosaccharide powder

Isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO) offers several potential health benefits, including: 

Prebiotic Effects: IMO acts as a prebiotic fiber, selectively stimulating the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the gut, such as bifidobacteria. By nourishing these beneficial gut bacteria, IMO helps maintain a healthy gut microbiota and supports overall digestive health.
 

Caloric Reduction: Compared to regular sugar, IMO provides fewer calories. It is not fully digested or absorbed by the body, resulting in a reduced caloric content. This makes it an appealing option for individuals aiming to reduce their calorie intake.
 

 

Dental Health: IMO is non-cariogenic, meaning it does not promote tooth decay. Unlike traditional sugars, it is not metabolized by oral bacteria to produce harmful acids that damage tooth enamel. As a result, IMO can be used as a tooth-friendly sweetener alternative.
 

 

Weight Management: IMO has been investigated for its potential to support weight management. It provides a mild sweetness and can be used as a low-calorie sweetener option to reduce overall calorie intake while still satisfying the taste for sweetness.


 

The application of isomaltooligosaccharide powder

Isomaltooligosaccharide (IMO) has a wide range of applications across various industries.

Here are some of the most common applications of isomaltooligosaccharide powder:

Food and Beverage Industry: IMO is commonly used as a functional ingredient and sweetener in food and beverage products. It can be found in a variety of food items, including baked goods, confectionery, dairy products, beverages, nutritional bars, and dietary supplements. IMO provides sweetness, texture enhancement, and potential health benefits as a prebiotic fiber.

Nutritional Supplements: IMO is often incorporated into dietary supplements, particularly those aimed at digestive health, gut balance, and prebiotic support. It can be used as a standalone ingredient or as part of a prebiotic blend to enhance the nutritional profile of the supplements.

Animal Feed: IMO is utilized in the animal nutrition industry as a functional ingredient in animal feed formulations. It can serve as a source of dietary fiber, prebiotic support, and energy for beneficial gut bacteria in livestock and poultry, promoting digestive health and overall animal well-being.

Pharmaceutical and Medical Applications: IMO may have potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry as an excipient or functional ingredient in the formulation of certain medications. It is also being studied for its potential therapeutic benefits in various health conditions, particularly those related to gut health and digestive disorders.

Personal Care and Cosmetics: IMO can be found in certain personal care and cosmetic products, including skincare formulations, oral care products, and hair care products. It may serve as a moisturizing agent, texture enhancer, or potential prebiotic for promoting a balanced skin microbiome.

Fermentation and Food Processing: IMO can be utilized as a substrate for fermentation processes, such as the production of probiotics, enzymes, and organic acids. It serves as a fermentable carbohydrate source for the growth of specific microorganisms and can contribute to the production of desired end products.

It's important to note that individual responses to IMO may vary, and more research is needed to fully understand its benefits and potential side effects. As with any dietary component, it's recommended to consume IMO in moderation and consult with a healthcare professional if you have specific dietary concerns or health conditions.
