a new kind of sweetener made from purified glucose as material via
hydrogenation refining ,concentrating .When it was absorbed by
human body ,it spreads slowly and then oxidizes to fructose ,and
takes part in fructose metabolization. It doesn't affect blood

diabetics. With high-moisture-tatiblizing , acid-resistance and
non-ferment nature ,it can be used as sweetener and monisturizer
