FOSLIFE®
Natural Sugar Replacement for Sweets, Bakery & Health Foods
Overview
FOSLIFE® is a naturally positioned sweet soluble fibre that can be used to replace or reduce sugar in a wide range of food products.
It provides a sugar-like sweetness profile while also contributing functional benefits such as bulking, moisture retention, texture and fibre enrichment.
For manufacturers looking for a natural sugar replacement, sugar substitute, low-GI sweetener, soluble fibre sweetener, or sugar-reduction solution, FOSLIFE® provides a functional alternative for food formulation.
Sweetness with More Functionality
Replacing sugar is not only about sweetness.
Sugar also contributes body, texture, moisture and mouthfeel to many foods.
FOSLIFE® is useful because it provides sweetness while also behaving as a functional food ingredient, helping manufacturers reduce sugar without relying only on high-intensity sweeteners.

More Than Just a Sweetener
FOSLIFE® is not simply another intense sweetener.
Because it is a sweet soluble fibre, it can provide some of the physical functionality manufacturers normally expect from sugar, including:
Sweetness
Bulk
Moisture Retention
Mouthfeel
Texture
Fibre Enrichment
That makes it particularly relevant for manufacturers who want to reduce sugar without treating sweetness as the only formulation requirement.
