What is Food Grade Xanthan Gum

 

 

Food grade xanthan gum is used in food production to improve the texture, consistency and shelf-life of foods such as salad dressings, soups, sauces and baked goods. It is particularly useful for those with coeliac disease or non-coeliac gluten sensitivity who must follow a gluten-free diet.

 

Benefits of Food Grade Xanthan Gum

 

 

Lowering or stabilizing blood sugar
A 2016 study found that food grade xanthan gum could lower the glycemic index of rice. After a group of people ate rice that was coated with food grade xanthan gum, their blood sugar levels were lower.
The benefits were most significant when participants consumed rice covered with xanthan, instead of using food grade xanthan gum before or after meals.
So foods containing food grade xanthan gum might offer the most potent blood sugar-lowering benefits.
Food grade xanthan gum may also stabilize blood sugar. A 2013 studytrusted source found that food grade xanthan gum mixed with beta-glucan (a type of sugar found in plants) could help prevent blood sugar spikes.

 

Reducing cholesterol
Some research suggests that, when taken in very high doses, food grade xanthan gum may lower cholesterol levels. A 1987 studytrusted source, for example, found that men who consumed food grade xanthan gum for about 3 weeks experienced a 10 percent reduction in cholesterol.
There is little evidence that food grade xanthan gum is beneficial on its own in the treatment of high cholesterol. A newer study has yet to be done to confirm these results.

 

Saliva substitute and treating dry mouth
Food grade xanthan gum may be a useful and safe saliva substitute for people who experience chronic dry mouth. Some varieties of toothpastetrusted source for dry mouths contain food grade xanthan gum to help lock in moisture.

 

Laxative
Because food grade xanthan gum helps to bind water, it may also help act as a laxative. The food thickener swells in the digestive tract, helping the intestines to remain moist and supporting gastrointestinal function.

 

Making it easier to swallow
Some diseases can make swallowing difficult, especially when the mouth and throat are dry. A 2014 studytrusted source found that food grade xanthan gum could help people with dysphagia, a swallowing disorder, safely swallow their food.
Food grade xanthan gum does this by thickening food and saliva, making it easier for both to move down the throat. This could reduce the risk of choking and make eating safer.

 

Treating cancer
Food grade xanthan gum may help treat some forms of cancer by slowing their growth. A 2009 studytrusted source, for example, looked at mice with melanoma, a type of skin cancer. Mice treated with food grade xanthan gum lived longer, and their tumors grew more slowly.

 

Role in gluten-free food
For people with celiac disease and gluten-sensitivity, foods containing gluten can cause intense stomach pain, diarrhea, and other unpleasant symptoms. Flour and other ingredients in many baked goods contain gluten.
Gluten-free products rely on substitutes that can make them resemble the texture, crumb, and flexibility of gluten-containing bread. Food grade xanthan gum thickens food and binds moisture, potentially improving the properties of gluten-free baked goods.

Physical And Chemical Properties Of Food Grade Xanthan Gum
 

 

Property

Effect

Viscosity

Food grade xanthan gum is an efficient thickener used in food systems. Concentrations as low as 0.1% by weight will cause a significant increase in viscosity.
Food grade xanthan gum imparts a relatively high viscosity at near-zero shear, which is typical during beverage storage, but shear thins dramatically to provide an appropriate thickness character when a beverage is consumed.

Pasting Properties

In a study, food grade xanthan gum increased hot paste viscosity and final viscosity while decreasing peak viscosity in starches.

Phase stability

Food grade xanthan gum is not an emulsifier but helps to stabilize an emulsion once it has been formed. It reduces the surface tension between the two immiscible substances, such as oil and water, preventing them from separating.
In a study, adding xanthan gum at 0.05% and above caused an increase in the viscosity and, hence, the stability of water-in-oil-in-water type emulsions.

Cloud stability

Since juice particles are negatively charged, adding food gums with a negative charge is expected to increase electrostatic repulsive forces between particles.
In a study, adding 0.4-0.5% by weight of xanthan gum to a non-centrifuged cloudy apple juice completely inhibited juice clarification, and turbidity was stable for extended periods of storage.

Foam Stability

Adsorption at fluid interfaces of whey proteins was improved by synergistic interactions with xanthan gum, resulting in better surface and viscoelastic properties of the film interface.

Water absorption

In a study, xanthan gum steadily increased the water absorption and mixing time of whole wheat dough. The highest water absorption, with a 20% increase, was noted for 1.0% xanthan gum.

Freezing properties

Food grade xanthan gum inhibits the formation of elongated ice crystals in frozen desserts, preventing growth in crystal size at low temperatures in abusive storage with temperature fluctuations.
In a study, adding xanthan gum reduced the size of ice crystals in a sugar solution.

 

Five Popular Uses for Food Grade Xanthan Gum
 
Gluten-free baking

In order to make gluten-free baked goods taste, look, and feel like their traditional counterparts, you often need to add a binding agent to the dough. In traditional flours, gluten is a natural binder that allows dough to stretch, roll, bend, and be shaped.
When used in gluten-free baking, food grade xanthan gum provides elasticity and stickiness to doughs and batters. Without the use of food grade xanthan gum as a binder, your cakes, breads, and crusts can crumble.
You can shop gums and other baking ingredients here.

Thicker sauces

Food grade xanthan gum increases a liquid's viscosity, meaning it is a "thickener." it's a great choice for thickening liquids to make them into flavorful sauces. You can use food grade xanthan gum for everything from the minor thickening of gravy to creating very thick syrups. Sauces thickened this way take on a texture similar to reduced liquid or fatty sauces. It increases flavor and clinginess, which helps the liquids to stick to food.

Gelatin substitute

Gelatin is a food derived from collagen and is a common gelling agent used in food. It can also be used as a stabilizer, thickener, and texturizer. Anyone following a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle might wish to avoid gelatin and gelatin-containing products. In many instances, food grade xanthan gum can replace gelatin to stabilize and thicken recipes.

Stable salad dressing

While food grade xanthan gum is not an emulsifier, it does help to prevent oil separation by stabilizing emulsions. It's a common ingredient in salad dressings for this reason. While under normal circumstances oil and vinegar would naturally separate, food grade xanthan gum prevents this separation. It also helps keep the spices and seasonings remain suspended.

Smoother ice cream

Small amounts of food grade xanthan gum can be used in ice cream to produce a smoother, creamier texture by preventing the formation of ice crystals. This helps the ice cream taste richer and high in fat without the use of heavy cream. This makes food grade xanthan gum a great addition to ice creams made from non-dairy milk, including soy, almond, or coconut milk. Food grade xanthan gum helps make the consistency of vegan ice cream more like its traditional counterpart.
