Bakers work to increase consumer intake of this
critical carbohydrate while maintaining great taste.
by Donna Berry
Dietary fiber is essential for health and provides a host
of benefits, such as boosting gut health and helping
lower cholesterol and improve blood sugar levels. But
fewer than 10% of US adults are getting the recommended
daily amount, according to Dietary Guidelines for
Americans, 2020-2025.
Bakers can help by bulking up batters and doughs
with fiber ingredients, but the challenge lies in maintaining
palatability and avoiding a finished product that
tastes like cardboard.
In 2016, the US Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) defined fiber, and since then, the agency has recognized
additional nondigestible carbohydrates as fiber.
The dietary fibers that can be declared on Nutrition
Facts labels include certain naturally occurring fibers
that are " intrinsic and intact " in plants and added isolated
or synthetic nondigestible soluble and insoluble carbohydrates
that have beneficial effects to human health.
In addition, fiber is recognized as being part of the
solution to the obesity epidemic. That's because some
fibers may be used to reduce sugar and thereby calories.
" The FDA fiber regulation includes calorie values for
dietary fiber, " said Julia DesRocher, technical expert,
bakery, Tate & Lyle. " Insoluble fibers have zero calories
per gram and soluble fibers have 2 calories per gram
for labeling and claims, unless a lower value is allowed
through a petition process and FDA review of applicable
data. "
To date, there is only one exception to this rule for
soluble fiber, and that is polydextrose. Polydextrose may
be claimed as 1 calorie per gram because of extensive
FDA-accepted clinical data demonstrating that it is metabolized
at a lower level.
" It doesn't sound like a big difference, but it's half
the calories, " Ms. DesRocher said. " If you want to drive
down calories, that could be advantageous, and it is
unique compared to other fibers. "
That can make or break the calorie count on a 100calorie
snack pack making a " high fiber " claim. In the
United States, products that contain at least 2.5 grams
of fiber per serving (10% of the Daily Value) may claim
they are a " good source of fiber. " Those with at least 20%
of the Daily Value, 5 grams or more, may make a " high
fiber " claim.
Toolbox of options
Bakery is a great place for fiber claims because it is a
relatively easy vehicle for boosting fiber. Brook Carson,

Chicory root fiber can
not only increase fiber
content of sweet baked
goods like cookies and
muffins but also help reduce
sugar and calories
in these applications.
