Why Five10Fibre™ matters…

Five10Fibre™ is a functional food ingredient derived from the fibre-dense parts of the natural sugar cane plant, using a proprietary production process. Cane fibre is prized as a form of nutrient-rich, insoluble, non-fermentable fibre with a high fibre content (about 99%).

Five10Fibre™ In its natural state, Five10Fibre™ is neutral in colour and odourless, it can be carefully milled into fine powders to individual customer specifications for particle size, making it suitable for a wide range of food and beverage applications.

Food producers who use Five10Fibre™ can be assured of these health claims:

The Story behind Five10Fibre™

It was in 510 BC, that the Emperor Darius of what was then known as Persia, invaded India where he found “the reed which gives honey without bees”. The secret was cane sugar. This discovery was kept a closely guarded secret by the Emperor whilst the finished product was exported for a rich profit. Merchants began to trade in sugar from India, which was considered a luxury and an expensive spice.

From a nutritional standpoint, just adding 5 to 10 grams of quality dietary fibre a day to a person’s food intake will improve his/her overall health in the long run.
