The invention relates to a
chicory root polysaccharide, an extraction method thereof and a preparation method of a hypoglycemic beverage containing the
chicory root polysaccharide, and belongs to the technical field of
biotechnology, beverage and food.The preparation method of the
chicory root pure
polysaccharide comprises the steps that chicory roots are smashed, mixed into a solution according to a certain material-
liquid ratio and extracted with hot water to obtain chicory root crude polysaccharide, residues are removed, and the chicory root polysaccharide is obtained. Performing
alcohol precipitation, concentration,
protein removal and the like to obtain pure polysaccharide of the chicory roots; the preparation method of the
sugar-reducing beverage containing the chicory root polysaccharide includes the steps of formula weighing, primary mixed sterilization, secondary mixed sterilization, filling and the like. According to the invention, non-
inulin micromolecular polysaccharides are extracted from chicory roots, and the functions of the non-
inulin micromolecular polysaccharides are researched to prove that the new polysaccharides have hypoglycemic activity, so that the chicory roots have the hypoglycemic activity; and by utilizing the characteristic of reducing
blood sugar of the chicory root polysaccharide, the
blood sugar reducing beverage taking the chicory root polysaccharide as the main component is researched and developed, the
blood sugar reducing value of the chicory root polysaccharide is fully utilized, and the health of a
human body is benefited.
