Chicory Extract Powder

Chicory Extract Powder – Premium Prebiotic Fiber from Xi'an Linnas Biotech

Xi'an Linnas Biotech Co., Ltd. manufactures pharmaceutical-grade Chicory Extract Powder standardized to contain ≥90% soluble dietary fiber through advanced hot water extraction and spray drying technology. Our product delivers 1.5 kcal/g compared to sucrose's 4 kcal/g, making it an ideal solution for sugar reduction and clean label formulations. Available in specifications ranging from 10:1 to 50:1, this brown-yellow powder is certified under ISO, HACCP, HALAL, and KOSHER standards. With a degree of polymerization from 2 to 60, our inulin-rich product addresses critical industry needs: mouthfeel engineering in low-sugar products and effective prebiotic support for gut microbiome optimization.

High-Purity Inulin for Advanced Formulation Needs

Our extract, which comes from the roots of Cichorium intybus L., is enzymatically purified to extract premium inulin. This water-soluble fructan serves multiple functions in your formulations.

It acts as a fat mimetic in dairy alternatives. The long-chain molecular structure provides creaminess without added lipids. Your low-fat products maintain desirable texture profiles.

Unlike other fiber sources, our powder dissolves completely in beverages. You avoid gritty sedimentation while achieving fiber fortification claims. This solubility advantage streamlines beverage development.

Technical Specifications & Quality Parameters

Active Compound Profile

Our extract contains concentrated inulin as the primary bioactive component. This prebiotic fiber efficiently nourishes good gut flora.

Sesquiterpene lactones such as fraxin and chicoryin are examples of secondary chemicals. They add to the hepatoprotective qualities. Chlorogenic acid and other phenolic acids have antioxidant properties.

Quercetin is one of the flavonoids that improve the nutritional profile. You receive a complete spectrum of chicory's beneficial compounds in every batch.

Clean Label Solution for Modern Formulations

Chicory Extract Powder from Linnas solves the texture challenge in sugar-free products. High-intensity sweeteners often create a hollow mouthfeel. Our inulin provides bulk and body.

Your formulations meet clean label standards naturally. Texture modification does not require artificial additions. Customers are aware that chicory root fiber is a healthful component.

Stevia bitterness is covered up by the powder. With lower-calorie drinks, you get superior sensory characteristics. This versatility supports innovation across product categories.

Gut Microbiome Support Through Prebiotic Action

In the upper gastrointestinal system, inulin is difficult to digest. It travels undamaged to the colon, where it is fermented by helpful bacteria.

Bifidobacteria and other probiotics are fed by this selective fermentation. Your products provide scientific evidence to support claims about digestive wellbeing. The effect of inulin in enhancing the makeup of gut flora is confirmed by research.

Frequent eating encourages the absorption of minerals, especially calcium and magnesium. Beyond improving digestive health, prebiotics also improve nutrition.
