Gum arabic fiber is widely used in both the pharmaceutical and food industries as an emulsifier and stabilizer. Gum arabic is made of saccharides and glycoproteins and is fit to be consumed by humans.
The Acacia tree grows in a region that stretches from Senegal to Sudan in Africa, although it has been historically cultivated in Arabia and West Asia. Gum arabic, a complex mixture of polysaccharides and glycoproteins, is used primarily in the food industry.
Gum Arabic is traditionally used as a carbon source for bacteria in caecum. These healthy intestinal bacteria are useful in aiding digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Acacia gum is used in a variety of food, and medicinal products. In herbal medicine, the gum is used to bind pills and lozenges, and to stabilize emulsions. It is also used to produce a medium for applying essential oils, balsams, resins, camphor, and musk.
