Proven Effectiveness of FiberAid

Sensory Attributes-FiberAid when added to a nutritional beverage offers fiber enrichment at significant levels with minimal sensory impact.

Texturizing - In a sponsored study comparing fat free soft tortillas with and without FiberAid (3%), the tortillas with FiberAid retained the highest percentage of the initial moisture. This moisture retention attribute produced a better tasting product, improved dough rheology and increased product shelf life.
