Description
Dietary fiber is defined as complex carbohydrates that are resistant to the action of digestive enzymes, and therefore passes through the intestinal tract, unabsorbed. Dietary fiber includes substances such as cellulose, hemicellulose (xylans, galactans and mannans), pectins, gums, and lignin.Dietary fiber has many nutritional benefits for the health of the gastrointestinal tract. Insoluble dietary fiber, such as cellulose and many hemicelluloses, are not efficiently fermented in the colon. As a result, they provide fecal bulk, bind water, and help soften stools. Soluble dietary fiber, such as pectin, many gums, and some hemicelluloses, are fermented in the colon to varying degrees.This results in lower colonic pH (acidity) and the production of short chain fatty acids, which are important for the intestinal micro flora and the health of the mucosal cells. Short chain fatty acids also have a role in facilitating colonic water absorption. Many insoluble and soluble fiber types bind dietary cholesterol and bile acids in the intestine, and therefore play an important nutritional role in the enterohepatic circulation of cholesterol and cholesterol metabolism in general.Most types of dietary fiber, when hydrated, contribute substantially to the volume of stomach contents and help provide a feeling of fullness. The dietary fiber offered by the psyllium seed husks provides many nutritional benefits for the health and detoxifying properties of the gastrointestinal tract.Oat bran and rice bran are also well regarded for the roles they play in supporting the healthy structure and function of the gastrointestinal tract.
