IMPORTANCE OF DIETARY FIBER
Research shows that the recommended dietary fiber intake is 14g/1,000 kcal, which means 25g on average for adult female or 38g for male. Research also shows that most adults only consume about half of the recommended intake, 13.5g and 18g, respectively, which results to fiber intake gap. Lack of fiber can mean an unhealthy digestive system, which can lead to both short and long-term health complications. "Short-term effects may be in noticable things such as an increased risk of constipation and blood markers such as blood glucose, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides can be affected," said Edward Giovannucci, M.D., professor of nutrition and epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. "In the long term, one puts themselves at higher risk of heart disease, diabetes and perhaps colorectal cancer." To avoid these negative impacts resulted from lack of fiber, then you are encouraged to consume more fiber every day. Fiber cannot be produced naturally by the human body, thus fiber supplement is needed to reach the fiber intake need. Fiberfit is the perfect solution for you to fulfill the daily fiber needs. Fiberfit is a Digestion-Resistant Maltodextrin (DRM) or commonly known as Soluble Dietary Fiber derived from corn starch or cassava starch. Fiberfit is one of the pioneers of DRM Dietary Fiber product in South East Asia.
