Health Benefits of Soy Fiber
 Natural source of dietary fiber
 It may enhance the following
health benefits:
 Normal bowel function

Why soy fiber?
 Quality and Consistency
 Uniform particle size = easy incorporation into
both liquid and dry formulations
 No off-flavors or odors
 Retain and control moisture
 Provides texture to baked products
 The dietary fiber
contained in 4 of our
cookies is equivalent to
consuming about 3
oranges or 1.5 heads of
iceberg lettuce.
 The purpose of our experiment was to create an
acceptable high fiber cookie using soy fiber.
 One serving is 2 cookies
 Each cookie contains 2.5 grams of fiber
