Info from the Fineli people on how to use their table! This makes sense!       09/28/06 08:36 AM Edit Reply Quote Ulrika Reged: 08/20/06 Posts: 581 Loc: Uppsala, Sweden For those of you out there who do want fiber info, I'm going to post a clarification on this here. It seems "fiber" is hidden under more names in the table on http://www.fineli.fi/index.php?lang=en than just total fiber and water insoluble. Total fiber = cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, plant gums and pectin (by the AOAC method). Of these plant gums and pectin are regarded as soluble fiber. BUT they also have values for "polysaccharides, non-cellulosic, water-soluble post and that is ALSO soluble fiber. I.e. total amount of SF = (polysaccharides, non-cellulosic, water-soluble) + (total fiber - water-insoluble fiber) This seems to make sense. As a comment on Sand's post saying the peeled pear has more fiber than the unpeeled I can just say READ AGAIN! The difference is that for the unpeeled pear the fiber is given for 100 g of pear out of which only 88% is considered edible. Whereas the peeled pear has info for 100 g out of which 100% is edible. I.e. no seeds et.c. That's why peeled pear has more fiber per 100 g in the table than unpeeled pear. Hope this clarifies things for all of you who want to use the table above. /Ulrika, IBS-D Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
