Organic Trehalose Powder

What is Organic Trehalose Powder?

Organic Trehalose Powder is a naturally occurring disaccharide derived from certified organic non-GMO starch via enzymatic conversion. This versatile sugar substitute delivers ≥98% trehalose purity with a low glycemic index (GI=65), exceptional heat/acid stability, and unique bioprotectant properties. Ideal for stabilizing sensitive compounds in functional foods, supplements, and cosmetics.

Key Highlights

• Bioprotectant Power: Preserves protein/cell structure during freeze-drying/heat stress
• Clean Sweetness: 45% sweetness of sucrose, no aftertaste
• Stability Champion: Resists hydrolysis at pH 3–10 and ≤150°C
• Low Glycemic Impact: GI=65 (vs. sucrose GI=65)

Key Features & Benefits

1. Molecular Protection

• Protein Stabilization: Prevents denaturation in vaccines/enzymes
• Cellular Integrity: Protects probiotics during lyophilization
• Flavor Lock: Reduces volatile loss in spray-dried flavors

2. Functional Performance

• Texture Modifier:
  • Inhibits ice crystal growth (ice cream)
  • Maintains moistness in baked goods
• Maillard Control: Delays browning at high temperatures
• Humectancy: Retains water activity (↑ shelf life)

3. Health & Safety

• Tooth-Friendly: Non-cariogenic (does not feed oral bacteria)
• Diabetic-Safe: Slow glucose release → ↓ insulin spike
• Prebiotic Potential: Feeds Bifidobacteria at 5–10% concentration

4. Clean-Label Advantage

• Non-GMO Project Verified: Enzymatic synthesis (no solvents)
• Allergen-Free: Gluten/soy/nut-free, Kosher/Halal certified
