1、 Characteristics as an energy source

Metabolic energy supply pathway

After entering the human body, it is hydrolyzed by trehalose in the small intestinal mucosa into two molecules of glucose, which directly participate in energy metabolism and provide basic energy for the body.

The energy supply process is smooth, and the glycemic index (GI) is only 45% of sucrose, avoiding severe fluctuations in blood sugar and suitable for people who need to control blood sugar.

Efficient energy conversion

1g trehalose can provide about 4kcal of energy, equivalent to glucose.

It can be directly used as an emergency energy reserve in living organisms (such as insects and microorganisms) to quickly respond to high energy consumption needs
