Xanthan Gum in oil industry :
In the oil industry, xanthan gum is used in large quantities, usually to thicken drilling mud. These fluids serve to carry the solids cut by the drilling bit back to the surface. Xanthan gum provides great "low end" rheology. When the circulation stops, the solids still remain suspended in the drilling fluid. The widespread use of horizontal drilling and the demand for good control of drilled solids has led to its expanded use. It has also been added to concrete poured underwater, to increase its viscosity and prevent washout.

Xanthan Gum Cosmetic Use
The cosmetic industry has also been able to see the properties of xanthan gum as a stabilizer and binder, that is, to prevent its components from separating. Xanthan gum can be found in:
• Toothpaste
• Bathroom gels
• Shampoos
• Creams and makeup
• Lotions and body ointments
Side effects of xanthan gum
• Xanthan gum, once digested, the body recognizes it as soluble fiber. Taken in excess can cause some side effects, such as gas, diarrhea or digestive discomfort. Do not eat more than 15 grams a day.
• In exceptional cases it can cause skin allergy.
• Avoid in case of intestinal problems or stomach pain , as well as in case of diabetes, since xanthan gum can reduce excess blood sugar levels.
• In case of pregnancy or lactation, consult before the doctor.
