Function
L-Malic Acid as an Acidulant:
L-Malic acid is particularly beneficial in the food industry, especially for products containing fruit ingredients such as jelly, where it helps maintain the natural color of juices. In healthy beverages, L-Malic acid combats fatigue and supports liver, kidney, and heart health.
Pharmaceutical Applications:
In pharmaceuticals, L-Malic acid enhances the stability and absorption of medications. When added to composite amino acid injections, it directly participates in the Krebs cycle, reducing the metabolic loss of amino acids, and assisting in the compensation for liver deficiencies. It also aids in the treatment of uremia and hypertension, and mitigates the damage caused by anticancer drugs to normal cells.
Additional Uses:
L-Malic acid is also employed in skin disinfectants, air purifiers, and deodorizers, further showcasing its versatility and efficacy across various applications.
