Fibersol® soluble fiber
Breko supplies Fibersol®-2 for dietary supplement applications
Dietary fiber is an essential component of a healthy diet. It supports digestive health, helps regulate blood sugar levels, and plays a role in weight management. Despite its vital functions for our well-being, it is often challenging to consume adequate amounts of fiber in a modern diet.
According to data from the German National Nutrition Survey II, the average fiber intake was more than 10 grams below the recommended daily intake of at least 30 grams set by the German Nutrition Society (DGE). This shortfall is one of the reasons for the increasing prevalence of digestive issues and gastrointestinal disorders.
As a result, fiber supplementation in the form of dietary supplements is becoming increasingly important.
What is Fibersol®-2?
Fibersol®-2 is a state-of-the-art soluble fiber that is gaining significant importance in the dietary supplement industry due to its remarkable properties. Derived from corn starch, Fibersol®-2 is a resistant dextrin specifically designed to promote health and well-being. With its low viscosity and exceptional solubility, Fibersol®-2 can be seamlessly incorporated into a wide range of dietary supplements.
Fiber as a Dietary Supplement
Increased fiber intake has been linked in epidemiological studies to a reduced risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension, obesity, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, certain gastrointestinal disorders, and some types of cancer. Prebiotic fibers are also associated with a healthy gut microbiome and overall health benefits.
With Fibersol®, it is easy to create fiber-enhanced supplements in a variety of popular formats, including:
- Powders
- Stick packs
- Gummies and chews
- Liquids
- Tablets
- Capsules

How Fibersol®-2 Benefits Your Gut
In the stomach and small intestine:
The branched structure of Fibersol®-2 is resistant to human digestive enzymes and is not absorbed during its short transit through the stomach and small intestine.
The advantage? Fibersol®-2 does not cause a rise in blood sugar levels.
In the large intestine:
The fiber that we cannot digest passes through the stomach and small intestine into the large intestine. There, it serves as a food source for certain types of bacteria (prebiotics) and can effectively promote the growth of a variety of beneficial bacteria (either naturally occurring or taken as probiotics). These include, for example, bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria. By promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, Fibersol®-2 indirectly reduces the presence of undesirable bacteria. Additionally, secondary and tertiary nutrients from fermentation byproducts, such as short-chain fatty acids, can contribute to maintaining good gut and overall health.
Result – less discomfort:
The production of short-chain fatty acids also lowers the pH in the large intestine.
