Detailed Description
In the human food industry, agar is used mainly as a gelling agent and in a secondary way as a stabilizing agent and for controlling viscosity. It is used as an additive, not as a nutrient. The gelling power of agar is so high that it is used at 1% maximum concentration; for viscosity control and as a stabilizing agent the proportion used is 1/100 or less. For this reason the ingested quantities are very small and, because agar is not easily digested by the human body, its calorie contribution is negligible and thus agar can be used in special diet food. Agar digestion by the human body is imperfect, studies have shown that less than 10% of the polysaccharide is assimilated. Therefore due to the small proportions in which it is used in human food, its importance as a nutrient is very small.
