General comment Maltodextrin is a white powder made from corn rice potato starch or wheat. It is a type of carbohydrate that undergoes intense processing. It is added to many foods to improve their texture taste or shelf-life. The FDA considers it safe but it can cause spikes in blood glucose levels. It is widely used as a filler preservative or thickener in foods and beverages. It is made by taking starches from processed and packaged food and breaking them down via a process known as hydrolysis.
