HERBACEL

Herbacel® AQ® Plus citrus fiber is obtained from freshly harvested apples (resp. citrus fruits) which are gently dried after extracting the juice (and oils). Non-fibrous compounds such as plant-specific sugars, coloring and aroma components are carefully removed during several washing steps, whereby the natural cell wall structure is practically maintained. This results in neutral sensory properties as well as high water-binding and retention capacity and furthermore it improves the nutritional physiological quality of the product. These high-swelling fruit fibers ensure longer periods of satiety, are beneficial for improving gut motility and stimulate digestion.

Herbacel® Classic citrus fiber is obtained from freshly harvested apples (resp. citrus fruits) which are gently dried after extracting the juice (and oils). Carefully selected raw material is mechanically cleaned and milled to defined particle sizes. Herbafood offers a wide selection of different fruit fibers in various particle sizes – from fine powder to coarse granules. The Classic fibers are characterized by the individual fruit-specific aroma which is mainly due to the high amounts of secondary plant substances as well as the remaining plant sugars. The proportion of soluble fibers, particularly pectin, is about one third, thus providing a balanced ratio of soluble and insoluble dietary fibers in terms of nutritional physiology.
