Candy is a favorite leisure food by many people, but traditional candy is high-sugar high-energy food, eating too much easy to lead to obesity and cardiovascular disease, causing damage to people's health. With the continuous improvement of food industry and people's living standards, people's consumption concept and diet structure are also changing, especially in recent years, the sub-healthy population caused by the micro-ecological imbalance of the intestines and the "three high" population caused by unreasonable diet gradually increased, people are increasingly eager to eat healthier low-sugar and nutritious food. As a result, healthy foods for sub-healthy populations with micro-ecological imbalances and sugar-reducing or low-sugar foods for the "three-high-one-super" population have become the fast-growing points of people's consumption. And probiotics in the sub-healthy population, "three high one super" population, micro-ecological imbalance in the diet has played a health role has been well known, with probiotics as the main raw materials of functional candy has become a hot spot for consumption in all countries.
the physical properties of
prebiotics in the world, the concept of prebiotics is determined by GR. Gibson et al. (1995) proposed that food ingredients that are not easily digested can improve the health of the host by selectively stimulating the growth and activity of one or more bacteria. Probiotics mainly refer to some ionose, such as low-poly isograin, low-poly fructose, low-poly semi-lactose and so on. Because probiotics cannot be decomposed, absorbed and utilized by the human body, probiotics can be decomposed and utilized by colonic groups after reaching the colony through the digestive tract, thus promoting the growth of colonic microbiomes, which is of great significance in improving intestinal micro-ecology, promoting lipid, protein and mineral metabolism. In recent years, due to its prominent role in intestinal health, probiotics have become the darlings in the field of functional food research and development, including probiotics of food, medicine, health care products have entered the market, and the continuous expansion of the industry has further promoted the development of functional food industry.
polysaccharide probiotics are mostly water-soluble, low viscosity, refreshing taste and low sweetness. Compared with sucrose, the sweetness of low-poly fructose is about 40% to 60% of sucrose, the low-polysaccharide is about 40%-50%, and the low-poly semi-lactose is about 25%. Probiotic acid stability and thermal stability is better, storage stability is also very good, no bad texture and flavor, can be used in candy instead of sucrose.
physiological function of probiotics
the physiological function of probiotics is mainly achieved by promoting the reproduction of beneficial bacteria in the intestines and optimizing the balance of the microbiome.
improve the function of the gut microbiome. The largest bacterial bank in the human body, more than 95% of human bacteria concentrated in the large intestine, the content of bacteria up to 1012cfu/ g or more, metabolic activity is very vigorous. Human trials have shown that all kinds of polysaccharides can greatly promote the proliferation of Bipolithyl bacteria in the E. coli, for example, Mitsuoka (1987) on 23 elderly patients (50-90 years old) The results of the two-week, daily feces collection bacteriological test by adding low-poly fructose Neosugar G15g to the daily diet showed that Bipolibial bacteria in the stool were 10 times higher after consumption of low-poly fructose than before the test.
low sweetness and low calories. Low poly fructose is only 1/3 sweetness of sucrose, in the human body is not broken down by alpha-amylase, sucrose conversion enzyme and maltosease, can not be used as an energy source, will not make blood sugar values rise, so it is very suitable for diabetics and obese people to eat.
improve lipid metabolism and lower lipids and cholesterol. Both animal and human experiments have shown that eating low-poly fructose has some effect on blood sugar, blood pressure, lowering serum cholesterol and increasing HDL/LDL ratio. Bipolico can produce bile acid hydrolytic enzyme, will bind to bile acid free, and free bile acid can inhibit the growth of pathogens, at pH of 6.0, bile acid can be combined with cholesterol to produce precipitation, with the urination excluded from the body. Bipoacteria and poly fructose themselves can also absorb cholesterol and be removed with the urination, thus effectively regulating blood lipids. In addition, lysosaccharides are fermented by Bipolac acid, which inhibits cholesterol-producing enzyme activity and thus the synthesis of cholesterol.
produce organic acids, lower intestinal pH, inhibit corruption, and prevent constipation. Low-poly fructose, low-polysoamed maltose, low-polylactic lactose and other non-digestible or difficult to digest ionized sugar food directly to the large intestine, in the colon by the coli group fermentation as an energy source. Bipolims, lactic acid bacteria and other beneficial bacteria fermentation of carbohydrates, can produce organic acids, organic acids can reduce the intestinal pH, can effectively inhibit the production of intestinal corruption products, and promote intestinal peristalsis and promote deferment.
improve immunity, inhibit and prevent tumors. A large number of animal test results show that Bipolithic bacteria in the intestines in large numbers of reproduction, can play an anti-cancer role. This anti-cancer effect is attributed to Bipolithic cells, cell wall components and extracellular secretions, so that the body's immunity is improved. For example, sterile mice fed a monokine of B ambigus had a longer lifespan than uns treated sterile mice. Low poly fructose has the function of whole intestine, it can make the intestinal corruption bacteria inhibited, corruption products significantly reduced and discharged in a timely manner, thus reducing the occurrence of colorectal cancer.
promotes the absorption of mineral elements such as calcium. Edible functional probiotics can promote the absorption of calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron and other mineral elements, for promoting the growth of children and prevent bone loss in old age, has been confirmed by many studies. Feeding mice with a feed containing 10% per cent per cent polyfluucose showed that low fructose promoted the absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc, and prevented bone loss due to lack of estrogen, niness (1999) reported test results on adolescent volunteers showed that the juvenile solar eclipse low fructose 15g, calcium absorption of up to 26%, youth chrysanthemum powder 40g, calcium absorption of up to 58%.
The application characteristics of probiotics in candy
Probiotics not only have anti-caries, promote the proliferation of beneficial bacteria in the intestine and other physiological functions, but also have a series of good physical and chemical properties, such as mild sweet taste, acid-resistant heat, low viscosity, good moisturizing, low moisture activity, etc., applied to candy has the following characteristics:
reduce the sugar content in candy. The low-poly isoglytic maltose and ghucose in probiotic products can be used as food raw materials in all kinds of candy, replacing sucrose in ordinary candy with 1:1, which is an important filling substance of candy products, and can reduce the sweetness of traditional candy to a certain extent.
to prevent hard sugar back to sand, hair, etc. Most of the probiotics have excellent moisturizing properties, can effectively inhibit crystal formation, so it can prevent the sugar body in hard candy back sanding and hiccups, to ensure the soft candy softball taste, to prevent excessive surface water loss hardening and so on.
prevent the formation of caries. Probiotics cannot be decomposed and utilized by harmful microbial mutation streptococcus in the mouth, so they can reduce the acid production of mutant streptococcus and carbohydrates in the mouth, preventing the damage of acids to teeth and the formation of tooth decay.
important raw materials for the development of sugar-free candy. With the function of low-polysomylassam and ionized fructose to inhibit crystal formation, and sugar alcohol (e.g. erythrusol, etc.) reasonable ratio, can make good performance and taste of sugar-free candy, high probiotic content, has a very obvious regulation of human intestinal health, enhance the body's immunity effect.

The prospect of the use of probiotics in candy
Obesity and digestive health are the health issues of greatest concern to people, especially digestive health, which is the fundamental and basic basis for ensuring good physical functioning, as well as the first and most important step to ensure good health. As one of the most effective and safest functional ingredients for regulating intestinal health, probiotics are gradually becoming familiar in all areas of food. Foreign countries have already started the study of sugar-free and healthy candy, and there are a lot of functional candy to enter the market, to probiotics and other development of functional candy is one of the most important categories. In recent years, the market for functional confectionery has developed rapidly, and through the excellent promotion of probiotics to the intestines, with other functional ingredients, it can effectively promote the absorption of the remaining active substances, such as the combination of probiotics and minerals. With the enhancement of people's health consciousness, the application of functional ingredients represented by probiotics in candy will have a very broad prospect for development.
