National Starch Food Innovation has published a brochure entitled “Fiber 2.0: Invisible in Your Food, Easy on Your Digestive System,” which includes an overview of fermentable soluble fiber and discusses consumer perceptions on nutrition, along with emerging research on health benefits. The publication explains how fermentable fiber (prebiotic) has been shown to mitigate many digestive diseases and improve overall digestive health. Fiber classifications and definitions are also detailed, as well as information on “resistant starches,” a third class of fibers that many researchers have added to the two main classes of fiber: soluble and insoluble fiber.
