Scientists Create 'Invisible Fiber' That Can Make Cakes And Pizzas Better For You
Scientists from RMIT University in Australia have developed a modified starch product that can be added to food without affecting its taste, color, or texture.
It's called FiberX, and it's been produced from native starches including wheat, corn, and cassava. Like actual fiber, it resists digestion in the human gut, allowing microorganisms in our colon to ferment it and potentially improving the digestive process.
