Non-gmo Soluble Vegetable Fiber

Soluble vegetable fiber is a type of dietary fiber that dissolves in water. It is typically derived from plant sources like corn, chicory root, or tapioca. The fiber is often processed to make it soluble, meaning it can be easily incorporated into liquid foods and beverages.

Manufacturers add soluble vegetable fiber to foods for its health benefits and functional properties. It can act as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria, and can contribute to a feeling of fullness. It is often found in products like syrups, baked goods, and beverages where it can add fiber content without significantly altering taste or texture.

Soluble vegetable fiber is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of dietary fiber, which is important for digestive health. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated dietary fibers and their health benefits. While generally considered beneficial, high intakes of fiber can sometimes cause digestive discomfort in some individuals.
