Fibers are plant-based foods that cannot be easily digested or absorbed by the human body. Plant-based fibers are a complex form of carbohydrates and intake of these fibers does not increase the blood sugar level. Fiber is one of the essential nutrients in food and is found in wheat, vegetables, grains, fruits, legumes, and other plant-based food items. There are two types of fibers, soluble and insoluble, which are available in all fiber-rich diets. Insoluble fibers are those which do not dissolve in water and remains unchanged and move through the intestines without providing any calories to the body. Insoluble fibers help prevent constipation as it works as absorbing fluid in the stomach that sticks to other by-products in the intestine and speeds up waste processing capabilities of the stomach. Insoluble fibers are used as a substitute to reduce the calorie content in bakery products as insoluble fibers have properties of wheat flour and sugar. Beverage manufacturers are also moving towards high fiber usage in manufacturing low acid beverages such as Ultra Heat Treated (UHT) milk, creams, soya milk, flavored milk, and other dairy products.
