ABSTRACT:
A particulate fiber composition containing at least one first dietary fiber, coated by an insoluble dietary fiber or a dietary fiber with low solubility, serving to prevent dissolution of the fiber composition in the oral cavity and during passage through the esophagus. The fiber composition has one or several inserted additional layers of at least one second dietary fiber between the at least one first dietary fiber and the coating of the insoluble dietary fiber/dietary fiber of low solubility. The different properties of solubility and fermentability of the fibers are utilized for the production of multilayer particles. The dietary fiber composition can be used as a supplement applied in pharmaceuticals and food products where high fiber content and small calorie content is given a high priority. Furthermore, the dietary fiber supplement can be applied for replacement of part of the sugar in sugar coatings of generally known cereals.
