Description
White, odorless, sweet-tasting powder.
Trehalose is a disaccharide, two simple sugars in one molecule. In trehalose , the two sugars are both glucose.
Trehalose, is 45% as sweet as sugar. It does not brown like sugar, and has a very low hygroscopicity (moisture attraction), so it stays free-flowing and dry.
It does not brown when heated, it does not promote bacterial growth or tooth decay as much as sugar, and it is less attractive to moisture.
Trehalose is found in honey, breads, beer, and seafood.
Uses
Trehalose is used in foods as a sweetener, a stabilizer and thickener, and a flavor enhancer. It is also used as a cryopreservation additive, where it protects cells from the effects of freezing and drying.
Trehalose, which is composed of two glucose molecules, is metabolized in an identical manner as other disaccharides (sucrose, maltose and lactose). After ingestion, trehalose is enzymatically broken down in the small intestine into two glucose molecules, which are then absorbed into the body by an active transport mechanism. Glucose is then utilized in the natural metabolic processes of life. Now trehalse has been shown to be a suitable energy source when consumed before,during and after exercise. The properties of trehalose, which make it particularly suited for products are:
-does not promote excessive insulin release
-lower peaker glucose and more sustained energy release
-empties quickly from the stomach
-low caries-promoting properties
-non laxative |
