So, what is pectina de fruta?
Pectina de fruta, also known as fruit pectin, is a natural plant-based ingredient derived from the cell walls of various fruits. It is commonly used as a thickening agent in food and beverage products, such as jams, jellies, and fruit-based desserts. Pectin is a soluble fiber that can help improve digestive health by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. It is also a low-calorie ingredient that can be used as a sugar substitute in some recipes. Pectina de fruta is a versatile ingredient that adds texture, flavor, and health benefits to a variety of food products.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
