Are you fulfilling your recommended fiber intake?

According to the American Heart Association, the daily value for fiber is 25 grams per day on a 2,000 calorie diet for adults. This number may also depend on age or sex:

- women under 50: 21 to 25 grams per day.

- men under 50: 30 to 38 grams per day.

Let's cross-check with the real deal: the average American eats only about 16 grams of fiber per day! Shocker, right? The numbers aren't so far off in Europe: a Public Health England survey found that only 9% of adults were achieving the daily intake goal.

Complementing your product development with prebiotic fiber, such as agave fructans, is a way to address this shortfall. Other benefits from formulating your products with agave fructans include sugar replacement, high solubility in cold water and added texture and softness to both food and beverage.
