- A soluble dietary fibre derived from corn.
- Can bind fat up to 9 times its weight.
- Has the unique ability to form a very stable fat–fibre complex with fat droplets in the stomach
- This fat–fibre complex is resistant to the lipolytic activity of pancreatic lipases.
- It passes intact into the large intestine so that the micro flora is unable to ferment either the fat or the fibre
- Thus reduces the absorption and bioavailability of dietary fat
- GRAS status by US FDA
- Causes significant reduction in body weight without any diet or lifestyle changes
- Shows significant reductions in blood lipid levels and increases in adiponectin levels in obese type 2 diabetic individuals with hypertriglyceridemia
- Reduces both saturated and trans fatty acids, resulting from preferential binding with saturated fats
