Abstract

In this review, the application of dietary fiber in processed meat products is discussed. In recent years there has been a significant increase in awareness of the importance (and lack) of consumption of dietary fiber around the world. At the same time, knowledge concerning the application of dietary fiber ingredients in processed foods has been developing rapidly. Most processed meat products offer unique opportunities for dietary fiber inclusion, and there is great potential for new applications in this area.
