Recent studies confirm the low-glycemic carbohydrate Palatinose promotes utilization of body fat as an energy source and thus improves metabolic fat oxidation in comparison with other carbohydrates. It is therefore the only carbohydrate to provide a sustained supply of energy in the form of glucose while supporting fat mobilization. Not only can athletes profit from a sustained supply of energy in the form of glucose, they can also obtain a greater amount of energy from their own body fats. Whether for weight management or training, this sweetener opens up new product positioning for functional drinks.
