Experts recommend a fiber intake of 27-45 g/day, depending on the population group concerned, well above what the population usually eats in general. Furthermore, the ingested fiber must be both soluble and insoluble, in the appropriate proportion.
It is often difficult to meet these recommendations, so fiber-enriched products are a good option.
At Quimidroga, we offer Nutriose®, a soluble fiber produced by Roquette, which in addition to the fiber enrichment capability, has the following characteristics and possibilities:
Nutritional
