Dietary Fiber in Food Systems
Fiber-enriched foods are one of the most rapidly growing segments in the food industry today. With increasing consumer awareness about health and wellness, and the importance of fiber in the diet, there has been an increase in supply of healthy fiber ingredients. Development of fiber-enriched foods poses a lot of challenges to the food scientist. As new ingredients emerge, there is a need to understand their functionality and their effects on formulation. This short course will provide you up-to-date information on different fiber ingredients, their functionality in food systems, and the health, analytical and regulatory aspects of different classes of fibers.
