Ammonium Glycyrrhizinate Powder

Product Description

What is Ammonium Glycyrrhizate?

Ammonium glycyrrhizate is a natural compound extracted from licorice roots. It is about 50 times sweeter than sucrose but has virtually zero calories. It not only provides sweetness but also possesses antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and is commonly used in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

Ammonium glycyrrhizate undergoes strict food-grade purification; it does not participate in human metabolism and does not cause significant fluctuations in blood sugar.

It is explicitly listed as a permitted sweetener in the EU, Japan, and China’s GB 2760 food additive standards, suitable for use in condiments, baking premixes, concentrated herbal tea, and functional candies. It exhibits good stability, is resistant to high temperatures and acids/alkalis, and its sweetness is not lost upon heating.
