Fibre is crucial to the human diet, yet studies show that our diets increasingly lack this critical component as we consume more processed foods. Indeed, average fibre consumption has fallen to around 15g/day – far short of the 25-30g recommended daily intake.
Fibre is a complex family of components from many sources and with many different characteristics. Polydextrose adds to the variety of dietary fibres available for a balanced diet and facilitates the development of new fibre-rich foods with excellent sensory properties.
As a soluble fibre, polydextrose may be partially or completely fermented by the resident colonic microflora, offering additional digestive health benefits.
Our soluble fibre ingredients provide an easy and tasty way to put fibre back into consumer diets. Though not intended as a replacement for wholegrains, fruits and vegetables in the daily diet, our ingredients can boost the fibre content of almost all food applications.
