Water Soluble Dietary Fiber Market Analysis:

• The market for water-soluble dietary fiber is growing robustly due to growing consumer awareness regarding health benefits and rising attention towards digestive health. Various products derived from plant sources cover psyllium, inulin and pectin and find strong applications in functional foods and supplements.
• Further, the market is driven by the increasing incidences of digestive disorders and obesity, as well as the adaptation of these fibers in the formulations of recently defined weight-management products. The food and beverage industry remains one of the key consumers as manufacturers continue to innovate to keep up with the demand for healthier foodstuffs.

Water Soluble Dietary Fiber Market Overview

• Water-soluble dietary fibers are carbohydrates, which are water-soluble, non-digestible, and may or may not be fermentable in the digestive tract, meaning that they do not get broken down by human enzymes, for example, in the small intestine. They include well-known fibers such as pectin, inulin, beta-glucans, and gums. Water-soluble fibers are converted to a gel-like consistency when in the digestive tract, and that is part of the reason for their health benefits.
• Water-soluble dietary fibers boost digestion, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels, promote fullness, and help control weight gain. Many of them also function as prebiotic fibers that feed beneficial bacteria in the gut.
