What is it?

Apple fibre is a dietary fibre derived from the pulp and skins of apples. It contains 10% soluble fibres and 41% insoluble. The soluble fibre component pectin, can help regulate blood sugar levels, whereas the insoluble fibre component can cannot dissolve in water and passes through the digestive system largely intact, improving digestive health.

Apple fibre is primarily composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, which are all complex carbohydrates that provide bulk to stools and aid in digestion. It is often used as a functional ingredient in food products and dietary supplements due to its various health benefits.
