Maltodextrin...The Carbohydrate That's More Dangerous Than Sugar.

Glycemic Index:
Sugar...65
High Fructose Corn Syrup...87
Glucose...100
Maltodextrin...136

A Carbohydrate not classified as sugar, but acts like sugar in a much more deadly way because it spikes insulin....

Maltodextrin is a type of carbohydrate, but it undergoes intense processing. It comes in the form of a white powder from GMO rice, corn, wheat, tapioca or potato starch.

Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide derived from starch hydrolysis & used as a thickener & filler in processed food. On labels, it does not have to be listed as sugar or added sugar, even though it has a higher glycemic index & causes blood sugar to spike.

Labeled not only as Maltodextrin, but also Modified Food Starch, Modified Corn Starch & within the "blanket term" Natural Flavors.

Food manufacturers add the powder to a wide range of processed foods such as artificial sweeteners, baked goods, yogurt, beer, nutrition bars, weight loss supplements, cereals, meal replacement shakes, low fat & reduced calorie products, condiments, sauces, spice mixes, salad dressings, chips, pie fillings & snack foods.

Conditions Caused By Maltodextrin:

Altered Gut Bacteria
IBD Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Diabetes
Insulin Resistance
Hormonal Imbalance
Crohn's Disease
Ulcerative Colitis
Weight Gain
Gluten Contamination
GI Distress

Maltodextrin harms the mucosal epithelial layer in the intestines, the barrier which protects against gut permeability. This damage then leads to systemic inflammation & many forms of IBD Inflammatory Bowel Diseases like Crohn's & Ulcerative Colitis.
