Fermentable fibres and prebiotic evidence
Explore materials for which fermentation and evidence at the intended intake are relevant selection questions.
This group does not confer a prebiotic claim on every listed grade. Review ingredient identity, composition, study conditions and the proposed intake. Digestive tolerance and demonstrated health benefit are separate questions.
Materials to explore
Ingredient information
Chicory Inulin
A chicory-root fructan fibre with chain-length-dependent solubility, body and texture functionality across beverages, dairy, bakery and nutrition products.
Ingredient information
FOS and Oligofructose
Short-chain fructan fibres with high solubility, mild sweetness and a role in the dissolved-solids phase of foods and beverages.
Ingredient information
Galacto-Oligosaccharides (GOS)
Soluble galactose-based oligosaccharides for nutrition products and foods where fibre is incorporated into the dissolved carbohydrate phase.
Ingredient information
Xylo-Oligosaccharides (XOS)
Short xylose-based oligosaccharides for soluble fibre-containing nutrition formulations, with composition defined by chain distribution and purification.
Ingredient information
Arabinoxylan and AXOS
Cereal-derived arabinoxylan fibres and their shorter-chain oligosaccharides, with distinct hydration, viscosity and formulation profiles.
Ingredient information
Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum (PHGG)
A soluble guar-derived fibre with low viscosity for beverages, nutrition powders and foods where fibre enrichment needs limited textural impact.
Ingredient information
Acacia Fibre
Soluble fibre from acacia gum, with a low-viscosity profile for beverages, nutrition powders and foods where fibre enrichment needs to preserve a light texture.
Ingredient information
Resistant Dextrin
A starch-derived soluble fibre with a low-viscosity profile for beverages, nutrition powders and foods where dissolved fibre is preferred to particulate bulk.
Ingredient information
Polydextrose
A soluble glucose-based polymer used for fibre contribution and bulk in foods where the balance of solids, sweetness and texture is being reformulated.
Ingredient information
High-Amylose Maize Resistant Starch
A granular maize-derived resistant starch for fibre enrichment in foods where a particulate starch format is compatible with the product.
