What is the primary role of functional fiber?

  1. Absorbing nutrients

  2. Providing digestible carbohydrates

  3. Providing energy

  4. Providing nondigestible carbohydrates

The correct answer is: Providing nondigestible carbohydrates

Functional fiber plays a crucial role in supporting digestive health by providing non-digestible carbohydrates. These non-digestible carbohydrates help in promoting gut health, regulating bowel movements, and supporting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive system. Absorbing nutrients, providing digestible carbohydrates, and providing energy are not the primary roles of functional fiber.
