Question 2: What is inulin? Inulin is not a powder literally extracted from chrysanthemum, but a polysaccharide stored in plants, mainly from plants. More than 36,000 species have been found, including Compositae, Campanulaceae and Gentianaceae in dicotyledonous plants 1 1 family, Liliaceae and Gramineae in monocotyledonous plants. Inulin is the highest quality, pure natural and soluble fructan mixture discovered by human beings so far.

Inulin has the effects of lowering blood sugar, treating constipation, enhancing metabolism, beautifying skin, eliminating eczema, improving blood vessels, reducing blood fat and cholesterol, losing weight and preventing colorectal cancer.
Inulin can generally be taken in warm water, about 10g a day, or in breakfast or milk.
Question 3: What is inulin? Inulin exists in the protoplasm of cells in colloidal form, which is different from starch. It is easily soluble in hot water, precipitated from water when ethanol is added, and does not react with iodine. Moreover, inulin is easy to hydrolyze fructan in dilute acid, which is the characteristic of all fructans. It can also be hydrolyzed by inulinase to produce sugar. There is a lack of enzymes to decompose inulin in humans and animals.
Inulin is another form of plant energy storage besides starch, an ideal functional food ingredient, and a good raw material for producing fructooligosaccharides, polyfructose, high fructose syrup, crystalline fructose and other products.
Kangqiyuan inulin has the functions of controlling blood lipid, lowering blood sugar, promoting mineral absorption, regulating intestinal microbial flora, improving intestinal health and preventing constipation.
Question 4: What is the difference between dietary fiber and inulin? Dietary fiber is indispensable for a healthy diet. Fiber plays an important role in keeping the digestive system healthy. At the same time, taking enough fiber can also prevent cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes and other diseases.
Dietary fiber is a kind of carbohydrate that human body can't digest. According to the solubility in water, it can be divided into two basic types: water-soluble fiber and water-insoluble fiber. Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are three common water-insoluble fibers, which exist in plant cell walls. Pectin and gum are both water-soluble fibers and exist in non-fibrous substances in nature. Common foods such as barley, beans, carrots, oranges, flax, oats, oat bran, etc. are rich in water-soluble fiber, which can slow down digestion, expel cholesterol as quickly as possible, help regulate immune system function and promote the discharge of toxic heavy metals in the body. Therefore, the blood sugar and cholesterol in the blood can be controlled above the ideal level, and it can also help diabetic patients improve their insulin levels and triglycerides.
Inulin is a soluble dietary fiber and one of the most soluble dietary fibers found at present, with excellent solubility.
Question 5: What is inulin? Which manufacturer produces inulin? Announcement of the Ministry of Health on Approving Inulin and Fructose as New Resource Foods (No.5, 2009)
-
Inulin and polyfructose were approved as new resource foods according to the Food Hygiene Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Measures for the Administration of New Resource Foods. When the above two new resource foods are used in food production and processing, they shall comply with the provisions of relevant laws, regulations and standards.
It is hereby announced.
Press release issued on 25 March 2009
Inulin is a mixture of natural fructans. Inulin products are refined from Jerusalem artichoke or chicory plants, and the polymerization degree is a mixture of more than 2~60 kinds of fructans. Inulin products are ideal ingredients for functional foods and good raw materials for producing products such as fructooligosaccharides, high fructose syrup and crystalline fructose.
Manufacturer: Zheng Sheng Nutrition Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise dedicated to bioengineering and human nutrition and health. It has core technologies and independent intellectual property rights in cell culture, biological separation and purification, plant extraction, development of biological separation equipment and application of biological nano-materials, and has a number of patents.

Question 6: What is inulin? Inulin, also known as bacteria in fire, is mainly processed from chicory, which has a good regulating effect on diabetic patients, hypertensive patients, obese patients and constipation patients.
Question 7: What are the benefits of inulin? What is inulin? Inulin is easily soluble in hot water, and then it can be decomposed into fructose when it comes into contact with acidic liquid (such as lemon juice), and it is easily soluble in water.
Question 8: What is inulin? Will you get fat after eating it? Hello;
I won't.
Inulin mainly promotes the absorption of vitamins and trace elements by regulating the movement of the stomach, so as to be healthy and energetic, thus promoting the consumption of energy in the body and achieving the purpose of losing weight. On the other hand, after ingesting inulin, blood sugar will drop, but it will not rise, so insulin in the kidney will not be secreted, and glucose will not be stored in cells, so the body will not get fat. On this basis, do some exercise properly and burn some fat to achieve the purpose of slimming.
Question 9: What is the difference between inulin and fructooligosaccharides? Inulin is a kind of stored polysaccharide in plants, which mainly comes from plants. Inulin is a mixture of natural fructans. Fructose units are linked by (2- 1) chains and terminated by glucose units. Generally, the average degree of polymerization (DP) of fructan in commercial inulin is 10-30. According to different polymerization degrees, inulin can separate fructooligosaccharides with an average polymerization degree of 2-9 and fructooligosaccharides with an average polymerization degree of more than 23. Inulin exists in almost all top plants, and it is another form of energy storage besides starch. We extract refined inulin products from Jerusalem artichoke, chicory and Pogostemon Pogostemonis, and the polymerization degree is a mixture of more than 60 kinds of fructans, which is an ideal functional food ingredient and a good raw material for producing products such as fructooligosaccharides, polyfructose, high fructose syrup and crystalline fructose.
Fructooligosaccharides are carbohydrates with 2 ~ 5 fructosyl fragments, a glucose group as the terminal group of the chain and a fructosyl → fructosyl bond as the backbone. That is to say, it refers to the mixture of triose (GF2), tetraose (GF3), pentaose (GF4) and hexose (GF5) formed by connecting D- fructosyl groups of sucrose with 1 bonds through β-2 and 1 ~ 4 fructosyl groups. Commercially available fructooligosaccharides generally contain a small amount of sucrose, fructose and glucose.
