For household use, pectin is an ingredient in gelling sugar (also known as "jam sugar").In some countries, pectin is also available as a solution or an extract, or as a blended powder, for home jam making. Pectin can also be used to stabilize acidic protein drinks, such as drinking yogurt, and as a fat substitute in baked goods.
In medicine, pectin increases viscosity and volume of stool so that it is used against constipation and diarrhea. Pectin is also used in throat lozenges as a demulcent.
