Neotame

• sweet taste

The sweetness of neotame is 8000-10000 times higher than that of sucrose, that is, it is 8000 times of sucrose at 5% sweetness and 10000 times of sucrose at 2% sweetness.As a kind of functional sweeteners, neotame has no adverse effect on human health and plays a beneficial role in regulating or promoting.

• characteristic

• Pure sweet, fresh and natural, similar to aspartame, but with high safety;
• Its sweetness is about 8000 times higher than that of sucrose, and the cost of equal sweetness is lower than that of aspartame;
• The nutrients are easily absorbed by the human body;
• Low energy or no energy, can be used for diabetic patients, not cause dental caries, can promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria;
• It will not cause tooth decay and blood sugar fluctuation. It is the preferred sweetener for health food.
• In acid condition, neotame has the same stability as aspartame. In neutral pH range or instantaneous high temperature, neotame is much more stable than aspartame, which greatly expands its application fields, such as in baked food.
