Probiotic Fermented Milk Containing Dietary Fiber Has Additive Effects in IBS with Constipation C. MERCOLA 12/07/11 Dietary Fiber in Processed Pet Food. One of the reasons pet food manufacturers add dietary fiber to processed pet foods is to supply prebiotics, which can aid in the growth of friendly bacteria in the large intestine of dogs and cats.
According to PetfoodIndustry.com: "Prebiotics are food for probiotic, live microbial species that are capable of colonizing the intestine once ingested. Due to myriad issues, probiotics often struggle to colonize and remain colonized in the intestine. One method to overcome this problem is to use synbiotics, a combination of prebiotics and probiotics, which increases the persistence of the bacteria in the intestinal tract. Persistence is improved by providing a preferred food for the probiotic, thus promoting bacterial growth and enhancing colonization.
" Another reason dietary fiber is added to pet food is to increase satiety (a feeling of fullness) in dogs and cats, which helps with weight loss programs for overweight and obese animals.

FOOD NAVIGATOR 05/03/13 Health Canada approves Ingredion’s NUTRAFLORA prebiotic fiber as dietary fiber source. NUTRAFLORA is derived from sugar cane Health Canada has approved Ingredion’s NUTRAFLORA prebiotic fiber as a source of dietary fiber under its revised Fiber Policy for Labeling and Advertising of Dietary Fiber-Containing Food Products, introduced in February 2012.
This means NUTRAFLORA - a short-chain fructooligosaccharide (scFOS) manufactured from sugar cane via a proprietary bio-fermentation process using non-GMO ingredients - can be declared as a fiber source in food products in Canada. NUTRAFLORA can improve calcium absorption, digestive and immune health, said Ingredion, which has been marketing the prebiotic fiber via its GTC Nutrition business and its predecessors for more than 25 years in the US. Ideal for use in dairy products, beverages, cereals, kids’ nutrition products and dietary supplements, NUTRAFLORA also has sensory advantages such as flavor enhancement, fat-mimetic properties and improved mouthfeel, claimed Ingredion.
OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY 13/03/13 OSU turns winemaking waste into food supplements and flowerpots. CORVALLIS, Ore. – Researchers at Oregon State University have discovered how to turn the pulp from crushed wine grapes into a natural food preservative, biodegradable packaging materials and a nutritional enhancement for baked goods.
The United States wine industry creates a tremendous amount of waste from processing more than 4 million tons of grapes each year, mostly in the Pacific Northwest and California, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Wineries typically pay for the pulp to be hauled away, but a small percentage is used in low-value products such as fertilizer and cow feed. "We now know pomace can be a sustainable source of material for a wide range of goods," said researcher Yanyun Zhao, a professor and value-added food products specialist with the OSU Extension Service. "We foresee wineries selling their pomace rather than paying others to dispose of it. For example, they extracted dietary fiber from pomace and turned it into powders that can be added to foods.
AGRICULTURE CANADA 25/09/13 Recherche des céréales et lentilles promouvoir la santé et le bien-être de la population. Connaissez-vous le monsieur aux muffins?
Ou, dans le cas qui nous intéresse, la dame aux muffins. La Dre Heather Blewett d'Agriculture et Agroalimentaire Canada (AAC) devra bientôt effectuer la dure tâche de distribuer gracieusement des muffins à 40 personnes chanceuses de Winnipeg. Les muffins – qui auront chacun une teneur différente en lin – seront distribués lors d'une étude qui aura lieu cet automne à Winnipeg et à Toronto. L'étude aidera à évaluer la capacité du lin à faire baisser le taux de cholestérol à lipoprotéines de faible densité (LDL), soit le mauvais cholestérol.
Les résultats, s'ils sont positifs, pourraient aider à l'approbation par Santé Canada d'allégations santé qui porteraient sur la capacité des produits contenant du lin de réduire le taux de cholestérol. Quant aux muffins au lin ils sont, aux dires de la Dre Blewett, des plus savoureux! Le quinoa et l'amarante : Un nouveau lieu de culture?
