What it is

Soluble tapioca fiber is a type of dietary fiber derived from the starch of the cassava root, commonly known as tapioca. It is produced through a process that modifies the tapioca starch to make it soluble and resistant to digestion, allowing it to pass through the digestive system largely intact.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add soluble tapioca fiber to foods primarily as a source of dietary fiber and to provide a slightly sweet taste. It also functions as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria. It is commonly found in snack bars, baked goods, and confectionery products.

Health notes

Soluble tapioca fiber is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of prebiotic fiber, which may support gut health. Some studies suggest prebiotic fibers can aid in mineral absorption. JECFA has evaluated soluble tapioca fiber and found it to be safe. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Soluble tapioca fiber is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is also gluten-free.
