Americans generally consume about half the recommended daily dietary fiber requirement. A 2,000-calorie daily diet would call for 28 grams of fiber, the equivalent of a combination of one cup of cooked beans, two cups of brown rice, one cup of broccoli and one banana. Not all fibers are created equal, however. Bruce Hamaker, Distinguished Professor, and Thaisa Cantu-Jungles, Research Assistant Professor, both in the Department of Food Science at PurdueUniversity have launched a project to compare the gut-health impact of whole-food fibers and inulin.
