Dietary fiber continues to be a nutrient of concern in the US diet with usual intakes only about ½ of recommended levels and only 5% consuming the recommended amount. Novel fibers that can be added to functional beverages & foods have allowed manufacturers to formulate products with fiber blends known to improve gut and metabolic=health. For this webinar we will first update new findings on fiber chemistry, fiber's impact on gut health via the microbiome, and fiber supplements that can be incorporated into foods and beverages. Additionally, we will present new research on the effects of proprietary fiber blends on gut health, especially the microbiota and their implications on prevention of diabetes.
