According to the online survey, more than 70% of consumers think that Nutrition Express Gel is a normal phenomenon, but more than 60% of consumers say they will not buy it again. Experts advise children to drink less drinks with many additives.
Regarding the nutrition fast line "Latex Gate", Wahaha issued a statement saying that products with milk as the main raw material, such as liquid dairy products or milk-containing drinks, are rich in protein, and protein in milk has the same physicochemical properties of gelation and film formation as other protein. Due to the high content of protein in the products of Nutrition Express, the gel after dehydration is a normal protein gel phenomenon.
Is the gel phenomenon in the nutrition express line caused by the high content of protein as explained by Wahaha Company? By comparison, it was found that the content of protein in the nutrition express was lower than that of protein in the milk beverage.
According to the nutrient composition table of the three drinks used in the experiment, the protein content of boxed milk is the highest (3.0g per100ml), followed by the protein content of bagged yogurt (2.9g) and protein Nutrition Express (1.0g), which is the lowest among the three drinks. On the contrary, milk and yogurt with high protein content do not gel. The content of protein in Nutrition Express is not high, but there are 1 1 additives, including guar gum and xanthan gum.
Baidu Encyclopedia shows that cationic guar gum is a water-soluble polymer, which belongs to natural galactomannan, one of quality improvers and natural thickener. Cationic guar gum is proved to be non-toxic by animal experiments.
Xanthan gum is the best biological adhesive in the world, which integrates thickening, suspension, emulsification and stability. It is completely soluble in most water-based systems, but due to its strong hydrophilicity, if it is directly added into water without enough stirring, the outer layer will absorb water and swell into micelles.
