Product Specification Of Guar Gum Powder Food Grade
Guar Gum is a natural product that is made from guar beans. It is a dietary fiber that helps to promote digestive health and can also be used as a thickening agent in many food and beverage products. Guar Gum is a highly soluble fiber and is low in calories, making it an ideal addition to any healthy diet. It is also gluten free, making it an ideal choice for those with gluten sensitivities. Guar Gum can be used in a variety of recipes, adding a subtle sweetness and texture while still providing nutritional benefits.
Gum arabic is unique among the natural gums because of its extreme solubility in water and its lack of taste. As a food additive, it has been extensively tested and appears to be one of the safest for human consumption. In beverages, gum arabic helps citrus and other oil-based flavors remain evenly suspended in water.
In confectionery, glazes and artificial whipped creams, gum arabic keeps flavor oils and fats uniformly distributed, retards crystallization of sugar, thickens chewing gums and jellies, and gives soft candies a desirable mouth feel.
In cough drops and lozenges, gum arabic soothes irritated mucous membranes. Many dry-packaged products, such as instant drinks, dessert mixes and soup bases, use it to enhance the shelf life of flavors. In cosmetics, too, it smoothes creams, fixatives and lotions.

Gum Arabic Properties:
*SOLUBILITY
Can yield solutions up to 55% concentration. Gum Arabic is truly soluble in cold water. Other gums are either insoluble in cold water or form colloidal suspensions, solutions not true.
*VISCOSITY
A 20% aqueous solution will give less than 100 cps, i.e. Gum Arabic is not very viscous at such concentrations. High viscosity is obtained only at concentrations of 40% - 50%
*FILM-FORMING
Gum Arabic's superb film-forming properties make it ideal for some confectionery coatings and lithographic plate solutions.
*EMULSIFIER
Gum Arabic produces highly stable emulsions making it very useful in the preparation of oil-in-water food flavour emulsions, particularly for citrus oils.
*COLOR
Colorless (top quality) to pale straw color (average quality).
*TASTE
Gum Arabic has no off-taste. The taste of flavouring products co-spray dried with Gum Arabic is not affected or dulled by Gum Arabic as the carrier.
*FIBER
Nutritional experts can regard Gum Arabic as 95% "Soluble Fiber," according to the latest evidence.
*CALORIC VALUE
Officially recognized in the U.S.A. as being under 1 Kcal per gram.
Generally defined as POLYSACCHARIDE DIETARY FIBER WITH REDUCED CALORIC INTAKE.
*CHOLESTEROL REDUCER
Human dietary intake studies have indicated a reduction in blood cholesterol levels when above average amounts of Gum Arabic (25 grams per day) are ingested in solution.
*TOXICOLOGICAL STATUS
"ADI not specified" (JEFCA + EEC):
"Generally Recognized as Safe" (GRAS) (USA).
