Q
does fiber provide energy
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Fiber is a crucial component of our diet, typically found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. While it's essential for digestive health, aiding in bowel movements, and may help in controlling blood sugar levels, it doesn't serve as a direct energy source in the way carbohydrates, fats, and proteins do. Most types of dietary fiber are not digestible by human enzymes, so they pass through the digestive system relatively intact. However, some fibers are fermentable and can be digested by bacteria in the large intestine, producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that the body can use for energy on a very limited scale. Despite this, the caloric contribution is minimal compared to other macronutrients, so fiber is not considered a significant energy source.
