ABSTRACT:
An ingestible, high-density compressed-tablet fiber-composition having a high dietary fiber content is prepared by blending at least one high fiber source with a microcrystalline cellulose compression aid; mixing water with the blend at a rate ratio of about 1.5:1 to about 2.5:1 based on the weight of water to the weight of the blend, for a time sufficient to form a cohesive, deformable, plastic mass; drying the plastic mass and milling the dried product to recover granules having a particle size of about 125 to about 840 microns; blending the granules with a tableting lubricant and compressing into a high-density, high fiber tablet.
