What it is
Tapioca soluble fiber is a dietary fiber derived from tapioca, which comes from the cassava root. It is produced through a process that isolates and modifies the soluble fiber components of tapioca starch.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add tapioca soluble fiber to foods as a source of dietary fiber, often to improve the nutritional profile of products. It can also function as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria. It is frequently found in beverages, snack bars, and baked goods.
Health notes
Tapioca soluble fiber is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Soluble fibers can help with digestion and may contribute to feelings of fullness. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated soluble fibers, but specific evaluations for tapioca soluble fiber may vary. Research on the health effects of specific fiber types is ongoing.
Allergen info
Tapioca is not one of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
