The fiber opportunity in fiber
Novozymes Saphera® Fiber is a beta-galactosidase that converts lactose into galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) fiber.
As a conversion of lactose into GOS – and not an added ingredient – the enzyme simultaneously reduces sugar and calories while increasing fiber (fiber generated has the caloric value of 2 kcal/g whereas sugar has 4 kcal/g). This provides innovation opportunities for brands such as:
Fiber enrichment and sugar reduction
Same sweetness and sensory experience that consumers expect
Cleaner label and natural positioning
Stable and easy-to-handle liquid formulation
