What it is

Hydrolyzed guar gum is a soluble fiber derived from guar beans, a type of legume. It is produced by breaking down guar gum using enzymes or acids, which makes it more soluble and easier to digest.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add hydrolyzed guar gum to foods as a source of soluble fiber and to improve texture. It can act as a thickener and stabilizer. It is often found in beverages, dairy products, baked goods, and nutritional supplements.

Health notes

Hydrolyzed guar gum is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of dietary fiber, which can support digestive health. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar gums. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects at typical consumption levels.

Allergen info
