Product Overview

Our Citrus Pectin is a high-purity, natural water-soluble dietary fiber extracted from the peels of fresh citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, grapefruits)-sustainably sourced from food-grade citrus processing byproducts to minimize waste. Presented as a fine, off-white to light yellow powder with a mild, neutral taste, it is available in two primary types: High-Methoxyl (HM) Pectin (for gel formation in high-sugar foods) and Low-Methoxyl (LM) Pectin (for gelation with calcium ions, ideal for low-sugar/low-calorie products).

Compliant with international standards (FCC, USP, EU Food Additive E440), it serves as a versatile ingredient in food manufacturing, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceuticals-valued for its functional properties (thickening, gelling, stabilizing) and health benefits (gut support, cholesterol management).

Citrus Pectin Characteristics
Core Advantages & Functional Benefits
Two Key Types for Targeted Applications:

High-Methoxyl (HM) Pectin: Requires sugar (≥55%) and acidic conditions (pH 2.8-3.5) to form firm, stable gels. Ideal for jams, jellies, and confections. Acts as a thickening agent for smoothies and dairy without altering flavor.

Low-Methoxyl (LM) Pectin: Forms gels with calcium ions (no sugar required) at a wider pH range (2.5-6.5). Perfect for low-sugar jams, diet beverages, and vegan desserts.

Health Benefits:

Gut Health Support: Acts as a prebiotic to feed beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus.

Cholesterol Management: May reduce LDL cholesterol by 5-10% through binding bile acids.

Blood Sugar Regulation: Slows carbohydrate absorption to stabilize post-meal glucose levels.
