The study of the dietary fiber’s and different functional food ingredients’ interaction

AbstractThe aspects of dietary fibers’ and different food ingredients’ interaction are considered in this article; in particular, the questions of dietary fibers’ interaction with the main foodstuff components (proteins, fats, vitamins, etc.), especially functional purpose; and the interaction of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), which is part of dietary fiber, with the main foodstuff components – protein, vitamins and antioxidants (tocopherol, and riboflavin). It was found that with increasing of MCC content in the diet, there was increase of vitamins sorption(especially tocopherol), with its maximum at 3 g of MCC. This is probably due to the relatively high porosity and properties of MCC to absorb and retain water, lipids and other food ingredients. These findings point to the need to consider the possibility of sorption of polysaccharides and, in particular in the preparation of starch-rich foods and dietary recommendations for their use.

Keywords:dietary fiber, dietary fiber interaction with macro-and mikroingrediens, sorption capacity, proteins, vitamins, antioxidants
