Healthy For You

Flavors from Florida, Inc. is currently developing a number of "Healthy for You" beverages using a natural low glycemic sweetener derived from sucrose and classified as a sugar which improves the taste and texture of foods and beverages.  This sweetener/carbohydrate is found naturally in sugar cane molasses and honey and it is certified GRAS by the FDA. It is made by an enzymatic non-GMO rearrangement and it's generic name is isomaltulose. It is different from traditional sugars because it is very low glycemic and insulinemic and it uniquely supplies the body with energy over a longer period of time and promotes metabolic fat oxidation and weight control. Hydrolysis and absorption in the body is complete, but much slower compared to sucrose and other sugars which is helpful in suppressing one's appetite.  In addition to the other positive attributes, it doesn't promote tooth decay.

This sweetener's broad range of nutritional benefits, which have been substantiated with clinical studies, make it suitable for numerous applications in the health and wellness sectors of the marketplace. 

If you are interested in receiving more information on this functional carbohydrate/low glycemic sweetener or finished samples of beverage applications utilizing this ingredient (note below) and technical information,  please contact us at the phone numbers or email address listed below.

Flavors From Florida's R & D and Sales Staff will be happy to answer your questions and help to design a beverage base that will meet your specific requirements.
