Highly refined plant extracts engineered to the highest global pharmaceutical and nutraceutical standards.
Mapping the worldwide growth of low-GI food inputs and clinical nutrition enhancers.
The global demand for healthy, diabetic-friendly, and carbohydrate-controlled diets has accelerated the demand for functional flours. Specifically, Lonjevity Fibre Flour has transitioned from a specialty niche food ingredient into a core macro-ingredient for large-scale industrial bakery and medical meal-replacement formulations.
With diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases rising at unprecedented rates globally, national health organizations and regulatory bodies (including the US FDA, EFSA, and China's National Health Commission) are pushing for glycemic reduction in staple foods. Lonjevity Fibre Flour, high in resistant starches, soluble fructans, and prebiotic beta-glucans, enables commercial food manufacturers to lower the glycemic index of target products by up to 40% without compromising dough performance or sensory texture.
Currently, the market size for functional dietary fibers in grain-based products is expanding at a CAGR of 8.4%. Industrial bakeries are actively reformulating standard white flour with high-fiber functional mixtures to secure front-of-package claims such as "High Fiber," "Low Glycemic," and "Prebiotic Supporting."
Deciphering market dynamics and research insights steering functional food engineering.
Global consumers reject synthetic additives. Lonjevity Fibre Flour serves as a natural hydrocolloid, providing water retention and structure organically.
Scientific validation of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) generated by prebiotic grain fibers has elevated flour blends into preventive healthcare products.
Producers are combining fiber flour with plant-based proteins and adaptogenic botanical extracts to build complete meal replacements.
B2B importers require total traceability. GMP-certified, pesticide-free, and non-GMO agricultural raw materials are now non-negotiable standard requirements.

Our quality management workflow ensures every customer request matches analytical facts. Raw material inputs, intermediates, and final flours go through comprehensive audits:
Adapting functional fiber compounds to meet regional culinary and formulation habits.
Ideal for keto breads, low-carb wraps, and high-fiber hamburger buns. Our flour matches mechanical mixing tolerances needed for high-speed automated mixers while providing a light, consumer-friendly texture.
Perfect for traditional extruded pasta shapes and artisanal noodles. Improves structural integrity, ensures proper "al dente" bite profiles, and reduces cooking starch losses in boiling water.
Optimized for steamed buns (Baozi/Mantou) and dumpling wrappers. Enhances crumb color, prevents skin shrinking, and maintains freeze-thaw stability for commercial cold chain logistics.
Ensuring supply-chain reliability from seed selection to final flour refining.
UniCare invests 10% of our annual net profit into research and development. In addition to optimizing and developing the existing natural plant extraction processes, we have established a dedicated R&D department for natural fermentation products. By increasing investment in natural fermentation, we break through traditional extraction limits to improve yields and purity.
Furthermore, UniCare works closely with the Beijing University of Chemical Technology in the fermentation field, co-developing and scaling new health raw materials from pilot phases into stable mass production.
To control raw material quality at the source, our procurement system links directly to designated cultivation zones, making each production batch fully traceable. Raw material storage runs under strict quality management processes, monitoring moisture, ash, active content, and chemical residues.
To secure critical ingredients, UniCare collaborates directly with farmers to manage dedicated Ginkgo leaf, Epimedium, Phellodendron, and Olive leaf planting bases. Many of these sites operate strictly under GACP (Good Agricultural and Collection Practice) guidelines. By partner-breeding with specialized scientific seedling developers, we cultivate high-potency crops that lower raw material unit costs for our partners worldwide.
The technological evolution of functional fiber ingredients over the next decade.
Developing advanced enzymatic modifications to turn simple wheat starches into type-4 resistant starch (RS4), optimizing heat stability for commercial baking.
Tailoring fiber structures to selectively feed beneficial gut bacteria strains (like Bifidobacterium and Akkermansia muciniphila) for personalized health products.
Improving the ratio of soluble to insoluble fibers to optimize dough hydration speed, shelf-life, and gas retention in yeast-raised bakery products.
Streamlining raw material sourcing, customization, and logistics for large enterprises.
UniCare does not simply supply bulk ingredients; we engineer integrated solutions for food brands and pharmaceutical manufacturers worldwide:
Addressing technical and commercial inquiries from food scientists, procurement officers, and quality assurance leads.
Due to its high concentration of pentosans and soluble fibers, Lonjevity Fibre Flour absorbs up to 1.5 to 2 times more water than standard refined wheat flour. We recommend adjusting hydration levels upward by 5-10% and extending mixing times slightly to ensure complete gluten network hydration.
For optimal yeast-leavened baking results, a replacement level of 15% to 30% is ideal. For non-leavened formulations like crackers, cookies, or extruded pastas, replacement levels can reach up to 50-70% depending on the required binding agents.
We run incoming checks on agricultural inputs at our GACP-aligned farming sites. Every batch of refined flour is then tested in our central lab using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AA-7000) and ICP-MS systems, verifying that lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium levels fall well below strict EU and FDA thresholds.
The standard shelf life is 24 months from the manufacturing date. It should be stored in a cool, dry warehouse environment, away from direct sunlight and strong odors, with relative humidity kept under 60%.
Maximize formulation performance by blending clean fibers with standardized natural actives.
