The label claims 12g of dietary fiber, and yet also states it is "Not a significant source of dietary fiber.." Is this a labeling error?

Hi- my jar of Nutiva Hemp protein powder says it has 8g of fiber and does not make that same statement you mentioned but does say that it is 32% of your daily fiber requirements - which to me seems pretty significant. I love the stuff.

I'm sure the amount is correct; and it seems significant. I don't understand their interpretation.

This may be their way of getting around the FDA's "health claim" regulations. If they state it heals anything, does anything beneficially, or claim anything about your daily needs it would be considered a "medicine" by the FDA and regulated differently. But that's just my theory on this particular labeling, anyway. 12g is a good amount of fiber, and if you multiply that to your daily needs then it most certainly is enough for you... They probably just can't TELL you that on the label, thanks to the "oh so concerned with the general population" FDA.

The adequate intake of fiber for a female age 9-50 is 25-26 grams/day; a male age 14-50 is 38 grams /day. The labeling is correct.

I agree with this question label says 12g fiber then at the bottom says "not a significant" amount of fiber. IF it were only 8 it would still be a significant amount of fiber, but at 12 g (which would make it carb neutral as the verbiage states, so it would have to be equal to the number of carbs) then it's nearly half the recommended daily amount, which is by all means significant. Something is fishy.

Hello! The Yerba Prima Daily Fiber does not indicate that it is organic at all on the label. Hope this information is helpful! -Jessi V.

Very important question! Total there is 11g of carbs. Dietary fiber is 5g and 2g of sugar. I honestly can say that I swear by this stuff.

The company taped their company label over the nutrition section, but I was able to remove the portion about carbs and found the following:2 pieces contain Total Carbs 2gm (1% DV) There was an asterisk * after the DV, but the rest of the label was stuck on the package. However, if the total carbs are what you need to know, this should help. And, the gum tastes great, too!

It says "no added sugar" and on the nutrition label it says the sugar content is 5g.

The answer is: 1000mg. Also, I find that I do need supplementary fiber, but this BioForm product doesn't seem better than others- in fact, maybe not as effective. I' d like to hear what you think if you try it.

Fiber content is 0 grams. My husband is gluten intolerant, so we sacrifice fiber for digestive wellness.

Not really sure. I do know the FDA ruled that if a serving of food is less that 5 calories, companies can label it as 0 calories. Same with sugar and carbs (less than 1g), so maybe fiber they can do the same. Konjac noodles are 97% water and 3% fiber, so that would be my guess. Good question, I never thought about it. I might email miracle noodles and see if I can get an answer. I did just go to their website and saw nutritional information. Carbs is labeled as "&lt;1g-only fiber." So I'm thinking they just wanted to label everything as 0 this 0 that for marketing. But there is less than 1g of fiber per serving. Hope that helps.

According to the list of ingredients, the source of the fiber us "Inulin (a natural vegetable fiber)." Hope this helps!

This says it is gluten free, but it is NOT! My Chinese herbalist put me on this product at a reduced dosage and after a few days I began having gluten symptoms. I thought it was something else I ate, so I monitored everything I consumed carefully for a few more days while my symptoms worsened. Finally, I started inspecting labels on my supplements, and I discovered the barley grass in this product. I stopped taking it, and my symptoms cleared up. I also found this article online: http://glutendude.com/celiac-rant/gluten-free-probiotics/ referring to an article in the NY Times. If gluten is a concern, I would avoid this product and find one without barley grass (and it is the first ingredient listed). This says it is gluten free, but it is NOT!

Great observation...we have access to an unsweetened 5# bulk pack. I will be pulling a sample to verify that it is truly a no-added sugar item before listing. If it meets these standards I will direct you to the amazon code. Thank you for your suggestion. (give me till Friday this week to verify) Coleman Supply

If you see a bottle with no ingredients then it isn't a real skinny fiber product. You should not purchase it! The real product has it clearly listed on the bottle.

I recently purchased Nature's Plus Spiru-tein Gold, Banana Berry Blast. I haven't even opened it yet because it is based on Chia Rice and Peas and I am prone to IBS (I'm wary of any product that is lentil based). I usually get the regular Spiru-tein high protein sans the peas, and I loved it. Anyway, according to the label on this can, even though Carbs is at 19g. under sugar it is 0. Mixed with milk it goes up to 11g of sugar. I cannot vouch for its validity, that is just what the label states. But, all in all Spiru-Tein is a wonderful product and a life saver on a busy day. I am mostly concerned with the vitamin and protein rating. Mostly, the protein rating!
