What it is

This ingredient is a type of starch, typically corn or potato starch, that has been modified. Modification processes can involve chemical treatments, physical processes, or enzymatic reactions to alter the starch's properties. These changes make it more stable or functional in food applications.

Why it's used

Modified starches are added to foods to improve texture, stability, and mouthfeel. They act as thickeners, stabilizers, and emulsifiers. They are often used in processed meats, sauces, baked goods, and dairy products to prevent ingredients from separating and to achieve a desired consistency.

Health notes

Modified starches are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a source of carbohydrates and are digested like regular starches. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated modified starches and found them safe for consumption. There is no evidence to suggest adverse health effects from consuming modified starches at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Modified starches are not derived from major allergens. However, if the starch is derived from wheat, it may contain gluten. Consumers with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should check product labels for specific allergen information.
