However, as competition increases, statistics indicate that the leading makers of these healthy foods and drinks tend to rely on the same handful of time-tested maltodextrinsuppliers and manufacturers of corn syrup replacementsand healthful alternative sweetenerswho they have since consumer demand for natural, healthy and organic items began to take off. That's because the most trusted ingredient makers have not only been around for well over a decade, but the best continue to innovate.
