5 lip 2017 · Research into the analysis, physical properties and health effects of dietary fibre has continued steadily over the last 40–50 years. From the knowledge gained, countries have developed guidelines for their populations on the optimal amount of fibre to be consumed each day.
5 mar 2007 · Establishing a definition for dietary fibre has historically been a balance between nutrition knowledge and analytical method capabilities. While the most widely accepted physiologically-based definitions have generally been accurate in defining the dietary fibre in foods, scientists and regulators have tended, in practice, to rely on ...
Dietary fibre is often referred to as non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) fibre or as AOAC fibre. NSP fibre only includes polysaccharides of the plant cell wall components characteristic of plant foods, such as wholegrain cereals, fruits and vegetables (BNF website, FAO/WHO 2003, pdf).
12 kwi 2017 · Definitions and classification. The term ‘dietary fibre’ (DF) was first introduced in 1950s, referring to plant cell wall materials; later it was used to describe a class of plant-originated polysaccharides, which cannot be digested and absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract (van der Kamp, 2004).
With dietary fiber as part of the nutrition canon, advances in research and understanding of the kinds of materials and the many physiological benefits suggested a need to refine the definition of dietary fiber and to improve the methods required to measure it.
1 mar 2017 · Over the past decades, dietary fibre (DF) has been well studied with abundant evidence on its health benefits. Advances in nutritional studies always lead the way followed by the food...
12 mar 2018 · Dietary fiber (DF) is a nutritional concept comprising an array of plant-derived or eventually other carbohydrate oligomers and polymers not hydrolyzed by endogenous enzymes in the small intestine of humans (1).
