 What is Coconut Fiber? Coconut fiber is a product derived from fresh coconut meat. It is considered a functional food because it contains health benefits beyond its nutritional content. Coconut fiber has all the benefits of other dietary fibers and many advantages that other fibers don't have. What Advantage Does Coconut Fiber Have Over Other Fibers? Aloha Nu Coconut Fiber has many advantages over other dietary fibers such as wheat bran, oat bran, rice bran, flax, soy, and psyllium. Higher fiber content than other dietary fibers. The same volume of coconut fiber contains over twice as much fiber as ground flaxseed and six times as much as oat bran. You get more health-promoting fiber for a fraction of the cost. Taste is far superior to other dietary fibers. Aloha Nu Coconut Fiber has a mild, nutty coconut flavor. This is one dietary fiber you don't need to force down with strong flavored and overly sweetened juices. It's so good you'll enjoy adding it to foods and beverages. Dissolves easily in liquids. Coconut Fiber is finely ground so particles dissolve easily in liquids so there is no unpleasant gritty taste of texture. Easy to swallow. Coconut Fiber has a higher water absorption capacity than wheat and oat bran, but does not thicken or gel. This makes it easy to use and pleasant to eat. Does not interfere with mineral absorption. Most all fibers made from seeds and grains (flaxseed, soybeans, wheat, oats, etc.) contain phytic acid. Phytic acid binds to calcium, zinc, and other important minerals and pulls them out of the body, reducing mineral absorption. Coconut fiber does not contain mineral robbing phytic acid. Contains health promoting medium chain fatty acids (MCT's) This is the only dietary fiber supplement that contains natural MCT's. MCT's help promote a healthy intestinal environment by supporting friendly - rather than harmful - gut bacteria. Nutrition Facts Serving Size: 1 Heaping Tbsp.
