caromax fiber is a dietary fiber produced from the pulp of the carob fruit. Its mild and patented manufacturing procedure preserves the high quality of its nutritionally essential components. The result is a product with a total dietary fiber content of more than 80 %.caromax fiber’s unique composition is characterized by its high content of dietary fiber (especially lignin), polyphenols and pinitol, which is the general basis for a variety of health perspectives.

    Physiological Activity

    Antioxidative Perspectives

    Antioxidants play an essential role in protecting the human body against oxidative processes. Most insoluble dietary fibers show little antioxidative activity – or none at all. Initial in vitro studies have demonstrated that caromax fiber works as an efficient scavenger against free radicals and other reactive substances.

    Digestive Perspectives

    caromax possesses a high content of insoluble dietary fiber and is especially rich in lignin. Its physiological properties (water-holding capacity and resistance to human digestive enzymes) contribute to an improved intestinal motility and bowel function.

    Lowering cholesterol

    caromax fiber has a high content of insoluble fiber, tannins and polyphenols help the absorption of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It is a recommended product when we require a low sugar diet. caromax fiber may be effective in the prevention and treatment of hypercholesterolemia
