Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between NHDC and other sweeteners?
Like other highly sweet glycosides, such as glycyrrhizin and those found in stevia, NHDC's sweet taste has a slower onset than sugar's and lingers in the mouth for some time. Unlike aspartame, NHDC is stable to elevated temperatures and to acidic or basic conditions, and so can be used in applications that require a long shelf life.
What fields is NHDC mainly used in?
Mostly used in feed additives, to improve feed palatability. It is also used in medicines to mask bitterness, and increasingly in various foods and beverages to enhance overall flavor profiles.
Can I get some sample for test?
Sure, we can supply samples free for your test. Normally a 10g sample bag is sufficient for evaluation.

Yes. The NHDC is packed in 25kg cardboard drums with inner 1kg/Aluminium foil bags, then securely wrapped in protective film. This packaging is fully suitable for long-distance land and sea transportation. During shipping, ocean transit standard procedures are observed.
