Guar gum

Guar gum is a natural, gel-forming fiber extracted from guar beans, widely used as a thickening, stabilizing, and binding agent in food, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications.
Primary Uses and Benefits
Food Industry: Guar gum is extensively used as a food additive to thicken sauces, salad dressings, and soups. It acts as an emulsifier in processed cheeses, prevents crystal formation in ice cream, and serves as an effective gluten-free binder in baked goods.
Health and Wellness: Being a rich source of soluble fiber, it can normalize stool moisture content, offering relief for both constipation and diarrhea. It has also been shown to help lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels, which may be beneficial for individuals with diabetes or high blood pressure.
