Cyclodextrin and the Shellfish Free Diet

Cyclodextrin is a cyclic oligosaccharide comprising sugar molecules bound in a ring. It is typically produced from starch through an enzymatic conversion process. This ingredient is valued for its ability to encapsulate active ingredients, stabilize flavors, and enhance the solubility of various compounds, making it a popular choice in both food and pharmaceutical industries. Cyclodextrins are commonly derived from corn starch, which may be a concern for individuals with corn allergies or those following a corn-free diet.
