Product Overview
Grapefruit Pectin is a soluble fiber extracted from the peel and inner pith (albedo) of grapefruit, the layer left behind after the juice is pressed. Pectin is a structural carbohydrate found in the cell walls of citrus fruit, and grapefruit's thick pith yields a particularly high concentration of it, making citrus byproduct an efficient source for pectin extraction. The extracted pectin is dried and milled into a fine, off-white powder for use in dietary supplements, distinct from the higher-methoxyl pectin used as a food-industry gelling agent.
As a soluble fiber, grapefruit pectin dissolves in water to form a gel-like consistency, a property that makes it a recognizable ingredient in fiber and digestive health formulas as well as in classic weight-management fiber blends where pectin has a long history of consumer familiarity.*
Key Considerations for Grapefruit Pectin
- Soluble fiber that forms a gel-like consistency when mixed with liquid
- Commonly formulated into powders, capsules, or chewable fiber products
- Frequently paired with apple pectin or psyllium husk in combination fiber formulas
- Positioned in digestive health and heart health product lines given pectin's fiber classification
- Neutral, mildly tart flavor profile that blends well into flavored fiber drink mixes
Private label brands typically request grapefruit pectin either as a standalone fiber supplement or as one component in a broader soluble fiber blend alongside apple pectin, psyllium, or oat fiber. Because it disperses well in liquid, it is a strong candidate for powder-format products designed to be mixed into water or juice, and it can also be encapsulated for brands that prefer a capsule fiber product.
Health Genesis Corporation processes and packages Grapefruit Pectin at our FDA-registered, GMP-certified, NSF-certified facility in Davie, Florida. As a family-owned manufacturer with over 25 years of experience in fiber and food-ingredient supplements, we offer low minimum order quantities, flexible formulation support, and in-house label design for private label partners.
How is Grapefruit Pectin different from apple pectin?
Both are citrus-family or fruit-derived soluble fibers with similar gel-forming properties, but grapefruit pectin is extracted specifically from grapefruit peel and pith, giving brands a distinct sourcing story for citrus-focused or detox-positioned product lines.
Can Grapefruit Pectin be combined with other fibers in one formula?
Yes, it is commonly blended with apple pectin, psyllium husk, or oat fiber to create a multi-source soluble fiber product, and our formulation team can help design a custom blend for your brand.
What format options are available for private label Grapefruit Pectin?
We can supply Grapefruit Pectin as a bulk powder for mix-in products, encapsulate it into capsules, or incorporate it into a chewable format depending on your brand's product line.
