ABSTRACT:
The tendency of an orally-ingestible dietary fiber composition to cause excessive flatulence upon oral administration is reduced considerably by the incorporation therein, in addition to other dietary fiber components, a flatulence-reducing amount of chitosan, or by administering such a flatulence-reducing amount of chitosan concurrently with the other dietary fiber components, illustratively the usual antihyperlipidemic pharmaceutical dietary fiber composition or dietary supplement composition. A preferred dietary fiber composition according to the invention incorporates a plurality of dietary fiber components other than chitosan, preferably acacia gum, pectin, and guar gum, together with a flatulence-reducing amount of chitosan.
