Basically, dietary fiber passes through the small intestine undigested by enzymes and is a kind of natural and necessary laxative. Dietary fiber is understood to be all of the components of a food that are not broken down by enzymes in the human digestive tract to produce small molecular compounds which are then absorbed into the bloodstream. These components are mostly celluloses, hemicelluloses, pectin,gums, mucilages, lignin and lignin material varying in different plants according to type and age. These fibers differ significantly in their chemical composition and physical structure and subsequently their physiological function. Those skilled in the art have attempted to identify fibers (or fiber systems) which will normalize bowel function, alter glucose absorption, lower serum cholesteroland/or serve as an indirect energy source for the colon.
There are many publications relating to dietary fiber.

w o 93/00019 2 1 0 0 9 7 1 PCT/US92/03801 solubility, fiber can be divided into soluble and insoluble components based on its capacity to be solubilized in a buffer solution at a defined pH. Fiber sources differ in the amount of soluble and insoluble fiber they contain. As used herein and in the claims "soluble" and "insoluble" fiber is determined using American Association of Cereal Chemists ( M CC~ Method 32-07 and wherein by weight at least 70% of the fiber source comprises total dietary fiber. As used herein and in the claims "total dietary fiber" or "dietary fiber" is understood to be the sum of the soluble and insoluble fiber determined by M CC Method 32-07. As used herein and in the claims a "soluble" dietary fiber source is a fiber sourcein which at least 60% of the total dietary fiber is soluble fiber as determined by M CC Method 32-07, and an "insoluble" dietary fiber source is a fiber source in which at least 60% of the total dietary fiber is insoluble dietary fiber as determined by M CC Method 32-07. Examples of soluble dietary fiber sources are gum arabic, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, guar gum, citrus pectin, low and highmethoxy pectin, barley glucans and psyllium. Examples of insoluble dietary fiber sources are oat hull fiber, pea hull fiber, soy fiber, beet fiber, cellulose, and corn bran.
"Applications of Soluble Dietary Fiber", FOOD TECHNOLOGY, January 1987, pages 74-75, teaches that the use of gum arabic and low viscosity grades of carboxymethylcellulose will allow the introduction of soluble dietary fiber intoa liquid food, but that: "It is virtually impossible to formulate a good tasting, high fiber drink using insoluble forms of fiber." The dietary fiber system of the present invention succeeds in overcoming this hurdle by providing a unique blend of soluble and insoluble fibers.

Furthermore, it is clear that certain beneficial effects of increased fiber consumption may result from chemical and/or physical properties of the intact fiber (e.g. water holding capacity and absorption of bile acids). Fibers vary significantly in their fermentability. As used herein and in the claims the term "non-fermentable" is understood to refer to dietary fibers which have a relatively low fermentabilityof less than 40%, preferably less than 30%, and the term "fermentable" is understood to refer to dietary fibers which have a relatively high fermentability of greater than 60%, preferably greater than 70%. Examples of fermentable dietary fiber sources are gum arabic and guar gum. Examples of non-fermentable dietary fiber sources are carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), oat hull fiber an corn bran.
As used herein and in the claims fermentability is determined by the following method, which is also described in "FERMENTABILITY OF VARIOUS FIBER
SOURCES BY HUMAN FECAL BACTERIA IN VITRO1 31' at AMERICAN JOURNAL OF CLINICAL
NUTRITION, I991; 53: 1418-1424. A healthy human donor serves as a source of fecal material from which an inoculum is prepared. For 8 days before the onset of the experiment, the fecal donor should consume more than 20 9 of total dietary fiber per day. This level of consumption may be ensured by consumption of commercial products containing mixtures of soluble and insoluble fibers. An inoculum is prepared from fecal material by mixing 20 9 of feces with 180 9 of an anaerobic dilution solution and then by blending the mixture and filtering itthrough cheese cloth. The anaerobic dilution solution is prepared as presented below. The inoculum is prepared under carbon dioxide to maintain anaerobiosis.

Fermentation should be stopped after 24 hours by refrigerating the sample.
After refrigeration, the sample is mixed with four volumes of 95% ethanol, allowed to precipitate for 1 hour, and then filtered through Dacron (pore size 20-70 ~m). The Dacron and residue are dried at 570 C, the residue is scraped into a preweighed vial and, after drying at 570 C, the residue is weighed. It is understood that the residue comprises a mixture of microbial mass and non-fermentable dietary fiber and it is assumed for the purpose of the present invention that if the residue is by weight x% of the starting material, then thestarting material comprised at least (100-x)% fermentable dietary fiber.
These properties of fiber solubility and fermentability, are useful in identifying fibers for the treatment and/or prevention of certain conditions.
For example, the purpose of the fiber in some nutritional products is to normalize bowel function. As used herein to phrase "normalize bowel function"
refers to the treatment and prevention of constipation or diarrhea.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
At page 161 of a report entitled PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS AND HEALTH
CONSE~UENCES OF DIETARY FIBER, prepared for the Center For Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Food and Drug Administration, Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. by Life Sciences Research Office, Federation of American Societies For Experimental Biology, Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A., (June 1987) it is estimated that the dietary fiber in a recommended diet would comprise approximately 70-75% insoluble fibers and 25-30% soluble fibers. The report , ':
. .
.
w o 93/00019 2 1 0 0 ~ 7 1 PCr/US92/0380i states that this is approximately the ratio found in a diet containing a wide variety of foods. Based upon this published report a decision was made to evaluate the use of a fiber blend having a 75/25 ratio of insoluble and soluble fibers with the soluble portion further described as fermentable and non-fermentable. Potential insoluble fibers included pea and/or oat hull fiber while the soluble components could be gum arabic (fermentable) and/or guar gum (fermentable).
The feasibility/optimization work occurred in two main phases using a 1250 kcal nutrient base formulation containing canola oil as 50% of the oil blend.
The recipe for the base formulation is presented in TABLE II. The procedure for preparing the base formulation is set forth in the paragraphs immediately following TABLE II. The batches produced during these initial phases of the investigation were of relatively small sizes, for example 11.3 to 22.7 kg. The bill of materials and mixing procedure were developed for a 456.3 kg. A person of ordinary skill in the art should have no difficulty in scaling the amounts ofthe ingredients depending upon the batch size.

Batches of the base formulation were prepared using pea and/or oat hull fiber as the insoluble fiber fraction while using sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and Nutriloid FiberPlus~, which is a proprietary guar gum/gum arabic blend supplied by TIC Gu~s, Inc. of Belkamp, Maryland U.S.A., as the soluble components. Formulat;ons for these experimental batches are shown in Table II.
Guar gum is a high-molecular weight hydrocolloidal polysaccharide made up mainly of galactan and mannan units combined through glycosidic linkages, which may be described chemically as galactomannan.
6um arabic, also known as acacia, is an emulsifier, stabilizer and thickener. It is obtained from dried exudates of various acacia trees.
Chemically, gum arabic is a heterogenous polysaccharide with slightly acidic characteristics, mainly in the form of its potassium salt.
Sodium carboxymethylcellulose is a white, odorless, tasteless, nontoxic solid, for which the only solvent is water. It is understood that a sodium -carboxymethylcellulose used in the practice of the present invention preferably has a viscosity in a 1% solution in water of not greater than 15 cps. Such a low .

The oat hull fiber used in the practice of the present invention is understood to comprise ground up oat hulls. Preferably in the practice of thisinvention the oat hulls have been subjected to a bleaching treatment in a reaction medium comprising an aqueous solution of strong alkali and hydrogen peroxide at a controlled pH in the range of about 11.2 to about 11.8 until substantially all of the polysaccharide in the substrate has been made availableas a water soluble fraction, and recovering the water-insoluble polysaccharide fraction from the reaction medium.

WO 93/00019 ` PCr/US92/03801 2100~71 Samples from experimental series A1-A4, containing 15% to 20% FiberPlus~, exhibited gross destabilization (extreme graininess and creaming) and were not subjected to physical stability testing. Samples from series B1-B8 and C1-C8 were prepared with several factors theorized to be significant in the destabilization observed in samples A1-A4 including FiberPlus/CMC level,nutrient base, oil blend and insoluble fiber source (pea/oat). Initial visual evaluation of this sample set indicated that samples containing the lower level of FiberPlus~ exhibited a slightly less grainy, but still significant appearance.
Additionally, pea fiber was determined to be unacceptable for future consideration as it settled rapidly in samples containing this fiber source. Asnone of the samples from the series B1-B8 and C1-C8 were judged to be aesthetically acceptable, no physical stability testing was conducted. The visual results were used as a basis for the experimental design of the subsequent Phase Two work.
PHASE TWO: Insoluble~Soluble Blends (Individual Soluble Components) As a result of poor stability attributes observed in Phase One material containing Nutriloid FiberPlus, two experimental designs were conducted to determine which ingredients were causing problems within the base formula system.
It was theorized that the soluble fiber source was among the significant factorsinfluencing physical stability. Two experimental designs were employed to determine which of the soluble fiber sources caused destabilization and if otherfactor(s) effected stability as well. Products in experimental design number one were manufactured with S.O grams of fiber per 237 mL (8 oz) serving. Of these 5.0 grams, 75% of the fiber blend consisted of oat hull fiber, and the remaining25% consisted of either 15% gum arabic or guar gum and 10% CMC. All of the fiber ,;

w 0 93/00019 1 , PCT/US92/03801 Results from the first experimental design (Table V) used to evaluate sample set Dl-D8 indicated that destabilization exhibited as increased viscosityand decreased color was caused primarily by the presence of guar gum. This was consistent with Phase One observations in that FiberPlus~ contains guar gum.
Increasing CMC induces an increase in Agtron rating with only a slight increase in viscosity. Gum arabic increases cause a slight color decrease with a minimalviscosity increase, while guar gum is seen to decrease color about 10 Agtron units and increase viscosity more than 10 cps.
In experimental design two insoiuble fiber was present as oat hull fiber from D.D. Williamson or Canadian Harvest at a concentration of 75% of the total dietary fiber (TDF) in each batch. These oat hull fibers are essentially the same, although these suppliers are believed to process oat hull fiber in a slightly different manner. In Table IV "FIF/FIW" refer to whether the whether the fiber was added to the product as part of the fat (FIF) blends or in water (FIW) blends.

WO 93/00019 2 1 ~ 0 9 i' 1 PCI/US92/03801 A repeat of the guar evaluation in the second experimental design confirmed the Design One observation as well as indicating that pH was also a factor in stability (Tables VI ~ VII). In Tables VI and VII "GRAIN" is a qualitative description of protein stability with 1 being best and 6 being worst (i.e.
significant flocculation), and "AGTRON" is a color scale that goes from 1 to 100with 1 being very dark and 100 being white. Results of the second design indicated maximum stability (lowest viscosity) was obtained at high pH (6.8) when guar gum was eliminated from the formulation. The source of oat hull fiber (Williamson versus Canadian Harvest) appeared to be insignificant in effecting product ~uality although slight viscosity increases were noted with oat hull fiber from Williamson. Minor increases in color were induced by decreasing potassium levels, changing from FIF to FIW and increasing pH. None of these factors, were viewed to be significant. Successful prototypes were generated during the Phase II work containing 75% oat hull fiber/15% gum arabic/10% CMC
represent optimized samples based on original product requirements.
At this point it was concluded that the base formulation containing a blend of oat hull fiber, gum arabic and sodium carboxymethylcellulose appeared to yield optimum physical stability. ~:
In order to further evaluate the use of a fiber system comprising oat hull fiber, gum arabic and sodium carboxymethylcellulose three replicate sample sets were manufactured according to the Bill of Materials set forth in TABLE VIII
using the method set forth in the paragraphs which immediately follow TABLE VIII.

For each of the replicate batches a portion of the batch was packaged in 0.23 kg metal cans (labeled as "M" in Table XII) and a portion of the batch was packaged in one liter plastic containers (labeled as "P: in Table XII).
As indicated in Table XI the physical stability of the retorted batches varies depending upon the levels of fibers present. In general, batches containing various levels of soluble fiber (CMC and gum arabic) exhibited similar viscosities as long as the CMC content did not exceed 10% by weight of the fibersystem. Physical stability was not tested for variations 4 and 5 of replicate sets G and H due to the presence of gross destabilization believed to have been caused by the high level (20%) of CMC. Batches containing 7.5% CMC exhibited slightly lower viscosities than samples containing 10% CMC, due to CMC acting asa "gum" or stabilizer which influences viscosity based on concentration. As gumarabic imparts very little viscosity, variations in gum arabic concentration were not observed to significantly effect replioate sample viscosity. Viscosities ofall replicate batches were observed to range from 20 to 35 cps which is satisfactory for both oral intake and tube feeding. Container type was not observed to cause significant product differences.
Several batches (e.g. G1, J1, J7) containing oat hull fiber from Canadian Harvest exhibited poorer stability (high grain/darker color) when compared to anequivalent formulation containing oat hull fiber from Williamson. The reason forthis variation between the suppliers is not known. Therefore, it is preferred that oat hull fiber from Williamson, (their stock number 782 with a brand name of "BETTER BASICS") be used in the practice of a preferred embodiment of this invention.

Basically, dietary fiber passes through the small intestine undigested by enzymes and is a kind of natural and necessary laxative. Dietary fiber is understood to be all of the components of a food that are not broken down by enzymes in the human digestive tract to produce small molecular compounds which are then absorbed into the bloodstream. These components are mostly celluloses, hemicelluloses, pectin,gums, mucilages, lignin and lignin material varying in different plants according to type and age. These fibers differ significantly in their chemical composition and physical structure and subsequently their physiological function. Those skilled in the art have attempted to identify fibers (or fiber systems) which will normalize bowel function, alter glucose absorption, lower serum cholesteroland/or serve as an indirect energy source for the colon.
There are many publications relating to dietary fiber.

As used herein and in the claims "soluble" and "insoluble" fiber is determined using American Association of Cereal Chemists ( M CC~ Method 32-07 and wherein by weight at least 70% of the fiber source comprises total dietary fiber. As used herein and in the claims "total dietary fiber" or "dietary fiber" is understood to be the sum of the soluble and insoluble fiber determined by M CC Method 32-07. As used herein and in the claims a "soluble" dietary fiber source is a fiber sourcein which at least 60% of the total dietary fiber is soluble fiber as determined by M CC Method 32-07, and an "insoluble" dietary fiber source is a fiber source in which at least 60% of the total dietary fiber is insoluble dietary fiber as determined by M CC Method 32-07. Examples of soluble dietary fiber sources are gum arabic, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, guar gum, citrus pectin, low and highmethoxy pectin, barley glucans and psyllium. Examples of insoluble dietary fiber sources are oat hull fiber, pea hull fiber, soy fiber, beet fiber, cellulose, and corn bran.
"Applications of Soluble Dietary Fiber", FOOD TECHNOLOGY, January 1987, pages 74-75, teaches that the use of gum arabic and low viscosity grades of carboxymethylcellulose will allow the introduction of soluble dietary fiber intoa liquid food, but that: "It is virtually impossible to formulate a good tasting, high fiber drink using insoluble forms of fiber." The dietary fiber system of the present invention succeeds in overcoming this hurdle by providing a unique blend of soluble and insoluble fibers.

Furthermore, it is clear that certain beneficial effects of increased fiber consumption may result from chemical and/or physical properties of the intact fiber (e.g. water holding capacity and absorption of bile acids). Fibers vary significantly in their fermentability. As used herein and in the claims the term "non-fermentable" is understood to refer to dietary fibers which have a relatively low fermentabilityof less than 40%, preferably less than 30%, and the term "fermentable" is understood to refer to dietary fibers which have a relatively high fermentability of greater than 60%, preferably greater than 70%. Examples of fermentable dietary fiber sources are gum arabic and guar gum. Examples of non-fermentable dietary fiber sources are carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), oat hull fiber an corn bran.
As used herein and in the claims fermentability is determined by the following method, which is also described in "FERMENTABILITY OF VARIOUS FIBER
SOURCES BY HUMAN FECAL BACTERIA IN VITRO1 31' at AMERICAN JOURNAL OF CLINICAL
NUTRITION, I991; 53: 1418-1424. A healthy human donor serves as a source of fecal material from which an inoculum is prepared. For 8 days before the onset of the experiment, the fecal donor should consume more than 20 9 of total dietary fiber per day. This level of consumption may be ensured by consumption of commercial products containing mixtures of soluble and insoluble fibers. An inoculum is prepared from fecal material by mixing 20 9 of feces with 180 9 of an anaerobic dilution solution and then by blending the mixture and filtering itthrough cheese cloth. The anaerobic dilution solution is prepared as presented below. The inoculum is prepared under carbon dioxide to maintain anaerobiosis.

The Dacron and residue are dried at 570 C, the residue is scraped into a preweighed vial and, after drying at 570 C, the residue is weighed. It is understood that the residue comprises a mixture of microbial mass and non-fermentable dietary fiber and it is assumed for the purpose of the present invention that if the residue is by weight x% of the starting material, then thestarting material comprised at least (100-x)% fermentable dietary fiber.
These properties of fiber solubility and fermentability, are useful in identifying fibers for the treatment and/or prevention of certain conditions.
For example, the purpose of the fiber in some nutritional products is to normalize bowel function. As used herein to phrase "normalize bowel function"

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
At page 161 of a report entitled PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS AND HEALTH
CONSE~UENCES OF DIETARY FIBER, prepared for the Center For Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Food and Drug Administration, Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. by Life Sciences Research Office, Federation of American Societies For Experimental Biology, Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A., (June 1987) it is estimated that the dietary fiber in a recommended diet would comprise approximately 70-75% insoluble fibers and 25-30% soluble fibers. The report , ':
. .
.
w o 93/00019 2 1 0 0 ~ 7 1 PCr/US92/0380i states that this is approximately the ratio found in a diet containing a wide variety of foods. Based upon this published report a decision was made to evaluate the use of a fiber blend having a 75/25 ratio of insoluble and soluble fibers with the soluble portion further described as fermentable and non-fermentable. Potential insoluble fibers included pea and/or oat hull fiber while the soluble components could be gum arabic (fermentable) and/or guar gum (fermentable).
The feasibility/optimization work occurred in two main phases using a 1250 kcal nutrient base formulation containing canola oil as 50% of the oil blend.
The recipe for the base formulation is presented in TABLE II. The procedure for preparing the base formulation is set forth in the paragraphs immediately following TABLE II. The batches produced during these initial phases of the investigation were of relatively small sizes, for example 11.3 to 22.7 kg. The bill of materials and mixing procedure were developed for a 456.3 kg. A person of ordinary skill in the art should have no difficulty in scaling the amounts ofthe ingredients depending upon the batch size.

The protein in water slurry is then added to the blend, the protein-in-fat slurry is then added to the blend. During the blending process the various components of the fiber system, which were varied in the experimental protocol were added to the blend.
The pH of each batch was then adjusted to be in the range of 6.75 to 6.85 by adding a sufficient amount of potassium hydroxide to the blend.
PHASE ONE: Insoluble/Soluble Blends with Nutriloid FiberPlus~
Batches of the base formulation were prepared using pea and/or oat hull fiber as the insoluble fiber fraction while using sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and Nutriloid FiberPlus~, which is a proprietary guar gum/gum arabic blend supplied by TIC Gu~s, Inc. of Belkamp, Maryland U.S.A., as the soluble components. Formulat;ons for these experimental batches are shown in Table II.
Guar gum is a high-molecular weight hydrocolloidal polysaccharide made up mainly of galactan and mannan units combined through glycosidic linkages, which may be described chemically as galactomannan.
6um arabic, also known as acacia, is an emulsifier, stabilizer and thickener. It is obtained from dried exudates of various acacia trees.
Chemically, gum arabic is a heterogenous polysaccharide with slightly acidic characteristics, mainly in the form of its potassium salt.
Sodium carboxymethylcellulose is a white, odorless, tasteless, nontoxic solid, for which the only solvent is water. It is understood that a sodium -carboxymethylcellulose used in the practice of the present invention preferably has a viscosity in a 1% solution in water of not greater than 15 cps. Such a low .

WO 93/00019 ` PCr/US92/03801 2100~71 Samples from experimental series A1-A4, containing 15% to 20% FiberPlus~, exhibited gross destabilization (extreme graininess and creaming) and were not subjected to physical stability testing. Samples from series B1-B8 and C1-C8 were prepared with several factors theorized to be significant in the destabilization observed in samples A1-A4 including FiberPlus/CMC level,nutrient base, oil blend and insoluble fiber source (pea/oat). Initial visual evaluation of this sample set indicated that samples containing the lower level of FiberPlus~ exhibited a slightly less grainy, but still significant appearance.
Additionally, pea fiber was determined to be unacceptable for future consideration as it settled rapidly in samples containing this fiber source. Asnone of the samples from the series B1-B8 and C1-C8 were judged to be aesthetically acceptable, no physical stability testing was conducted. The visual results were used as a basis for the experimental design of the subsequent Phase Two work.
PHASE TWO: Insoluble~Soluble Blends (Individual Soluble Components) As a result of poor stability attributes observed in Phase One material containing Nutriloid FiberPlus, two experimental designs were conducted to determine which ingredients were causing problems within the base formula system.
It was theorized that the soluble fiber source was among the significant factorsinfluencing physical stability. Two experimental designs were employed to determine which of the soluble fiber sources caused destabilization and if otherfactor(s) effected stability as well. Products in experimental design number one were manufactured with S.O grams of fiber per 237 mL (8 oz) serving. Of these 5.0 grams, 75% of the fiber blend consisted of oat hull fiber, and the remaining25% consisted of either 15% gum arabic or guar gum and 10% CMC. All of the fiber ,;
w o ~3tOO019 PCT~US92/03801 components were added individually as opposed to being added as a preblended ingredient such as FiberPlus~.

w 0 93/00019 1 , PCT/US92/03801 Results from the first experimental design (Table V) used to evaluate sample set Dl-D8 indicated that destabilization exhibited as increased viscosityand decreased color was caused primarily by the presence of guar gum. This was consistent with Phase One observations in that FiberPlus~ contains guar gum.
Increasing CMC induces an increase in Agtron rating with only a slight increase in viscosity. Gum arabic increases cause a slight color decrease with a minimalviscosity increase, while guar gum is seen to decrease color about 10 Agtron units and increase viscosity more than 10 cps.
In experimental design two insoiuble fiber was present as oat hull fiber from D.D. Williamson or Canadian Harvest at a concentration of 75% of the total dietary fiber (TDF) in each batch. These oat hull fibers are essentially the same, although these suppliers are believed to process oat hull fiber in a slightly different manner. In Table IV "FIF/FIW" refer to whether the whether the fiber was added to the product as part of the fat (FIF) blends or in water (FIW) blends.

WO 93/00019 2 1 ~ 0 9 i' 1 PCI/US92/03801 A repeat of the guar evaluation in the second experimental design confirmed the Design One observation as well as indicating that pH was also a factor in stability (Tables VI ~ VII). In Tables VI and VII "GRAIN" is a qualitative description of protein stability with 1 being best and 6 being worst (i.e.
significant flocculation), and "AGTRON" is a color scale that goes from 1 to 100with 1 being very dark and 100 being white. Results of the second design indicated maximum stability (lowest viscosity) was obtained at high pH (6.8) when guar gum was eliminated from the formulation. The source of oat hull fiber (Williamson versus Canadian Harvest) appeared to be insignificant in effecting product ~uality although slight viscosity increases were noted with oat hull fiber from Williamson. Minor increases in color were induced by decreasing potassium levels, changing from FIF to FIW and increasing pH. None of these factors, were viewed to be significant. Successful prototypes were generated during the Phase II work containing 75% oat hull fiber/15% gum arabic/10% CMC
represent optimized samples based on original product requirements.
At this point it was concluded that the base formulation containing a blend of oat hull fiber, gum arabic and sodium carboxymethylcellulose appeared to yield optimum physical stability. ~:
In order to further evaluate the use of a fiber system comprising oat hull fiber, gum arabic and sodium carboxymethylcellulose three replicate sample sets were manufactured according to the Bill of Materials set forth in TABLE VIII

For each of the replicate batches a portion of the batch was packaged in 0.23 kg metal cans (labeled as "M" in Table XII) and a portion of the batch was packaged in one liter plastic containers (labeled as "P: in Table XII).
As indicated in Table XI the physical stability of the retorted batches varies depending upon the levels of fibers present. In general, batches containing various levels of soluble fiber (CMC and gum arabic) exhibited similar viscosities as long as the CMC content did not exceed 10% by weight of the fibersystem. Physical stability was not tested for variations 4 and 5 of replicate sets G and H due to the presence of gross destabilization believed to have been caused by the high level (20%) of CMC. Batches containing 7.5% CMC exhibited slightly lower viscosities than samples containing 10% CMC, due to CMC acting asa "gum" or stabilizer which influences viscosity based on concentration. As gumarabic imparts very little viscosity, variations in gum arabic concentration were not observed to significantly effect replioate sample viscosity. Viscosities ofall replicate batches were observed to range from 20 to 35 cps which is satisfactory for both oral intake and tube feeding. Container type was not observed to cause significant product differences.
Several batches (e.g. G1, J1, J7) containing oat hull fiber from Canadian Harvest exhibited poorer stability (high grain/darker color) when compared to anequivalent formulation containing oat hull fiber from Williamson. The reason forthis variation between the suppliers is not known. Therefore, it is preferred that oat hull fiber from Williamson, (their stock number 782 with a brand name of "BETTER BASICS") be used in the practice of a preferred embodiment of this invention.
