Definitions regulations and health claims associated with dietary fibre and wholegrain foods
bookPart
Consumers worldwide are becoming increasingly interested in healthy eating, and have consequently (re)discovered the value of wholegrain-based and fibre-rich products. Governments and industry associations are developing regulations and guidelines for labelling, while authorities and scientific bodies are issuing and renewing dietary guidelines for recommended intake and assessing the numerous health claim proposals submitted by the industry. After a short outline on definitions and related analytical methods, this chapter presents an overview of the current state of affairs. © 2013 Woodhead Publishing Limited. All rights reserved.
