China Food Grade L-Arabinose Powder Arabinose

L-arabinoseThe development of food ingredients for a healthy diet to prevent further increase of obesity and diabetes numbers has top priority. L-Arabinose can play an important role in the management of blood glucose and insulin levels related to sucrose intake. The addition of L-Arabinose to a sugar containing diet has the following direct benefits: 1)up to 60% reduction of the glucose peak level related to sucrose consumption, 2) up to 60% suppression of the insulin peak level related to sucrose consumption, 3)a sustained release of glucose to the body over a longer period of time. A low glycemic diet may have benefits like reduction of heart disease, lowering of blood cholesterol, management of body weight and composition, and prevention of type 2 diabetes. A low insulinic diet may lead to lower fat storage and prevention of pre-diabetes incidence. Sustained glucose release over a longer period of time has advantages for athletes and other people that value a responsible and healthy diet.
