NHDC Description

NHDC is extracted from immature bitter orange and belongs to the category of natural plant extracts. It is a sweetener that combines efficiency, natural origin, and low-calorie content. The entire extraction process utilizes edible alcohol and purified water, ensuring no chemical solvent residue remains. So it is safe and non-toxic.

As early as 1963, Horowitz discovered that it had a strong sweet taste, with a sweetness of 1500-1800 times that of sucrose, and a refreshing taste with a long-lasting aftertaste, without the unpleasant feeling of saccharin or stevia after use. NHDC was included as a supplementary variety in the "Hygienic Standards for the Use of Food Additives" by the Chinese Ministry of Health in 1997 and officially approved for use in the food industry.

NHDC Features

High-density sweetener with low-calorie: It has high sweetness, which is 1500 - 1800 times as sweet as sugar, and it's in a low-calorie form.
Good taste: It has a cool mint taste and lasts long.
Bitterness masking agent: Pharmaceutical companies are fond of the product as a means of reducing the bitterness of pharmacological drugs in tablet form, and it has been used for livestock feed as a means of reducing feeding time. It is also widely favoured for use in otherwise naturally bitter products.
Flavour enhancer: NHDC is used in a wide range of products and is indicated by the E number E 959. It is noted particularly for enhancing sensory effects (known in the industry as 'mouth feel'). An example of this is 'creaminess' in dairy foods, such as yogurt and ice cream.
Antioxidant: In more recent studies, NHDC indicates remarkable radical scavenging activity against stable radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a dependent manner. Especially, NHDC was the most potent inhibitor of H202 and HOCl.
