arabic
Gum arabic or gum acacia is a tree exudate obtained from the stems
and branches of Acacia senegal. Gum arabic consists mainly of high
molecular weight polysaccharides and their magnesium, calcium and
potassium salts which of hydrolysis yield galactose, arabinose,
glucuronic acid and rhamnose.
Gum arabic is the gum that is exuded from certain trees, such as
the Acacia senegal tree. It's a source of dietary fiber that can
dissolve in water. Gum arabic tends to make people feel full, so
they might stop eating earlier than they otherwise would. This
might lead to weight loss and reduced cholesterol levels.
Gum arabic is primarily used as an emulsifier, stabilizer, or
thickener in foods and beverages. Emulsifiers help bind water and
oil molecules, creating a smooth, homogeneous solution.
Besides the many uses of the resin, the Gum Arabic tree is also
rich in natural tannins, and the wood and bark have long been used
for dyeing textiles and tanning leather. Gum Arabic Extract
produces a clear tan or sandy brown color on fibers that have been
treated with alum.

emulsifiers, and stablizers. Because they are considered inert
substances, they are also used in diet products and medicines. Gums
are also used for the following: Disperse fat and proteins in dairy
products.
