Fiber Index Fit™

Fiber Index Fit™ evaluates fiber in the context of the food that contains it. It looks beyond fiber quantity alone to characterize a food's fiber profile through Fiber Index Score™, Fiber Index Grade™, and Fiber Index Class™.

Fiber Index Fit™ Assessment

Fiber Index Fit™ evaluates fiber in the context of the food that contains it, then translates that information into a simple three-step framework: Score & Grade. Classify. Fit.

​

Together, these steps help characterize a food's Fiber Index profile and consider how that profile may fit different nutritional priorities and eating or activity occasions.

Fiber Index Fit™ scores and grades fiber in the context of the food that contains it.

FI Score™ begins with the relationship between dietary fiber and available carbohydrate and incorporates defined nutritional factors to create a standardized Fiber Index profile.

​

FI Grade™ translates that score into a familiar A+ through F scale, making different Fiber Index profiles easier to recognize and compare.

Fiber Index Fit™ classifies a food's Fiber Index profile

FI Class™ represents increasing potential for fiber-associated moderation of carbohydrate digestion and absorption:

​

FAST™ → lower potential
BALANCED™ → intermediate potential
SLOW™ → higher potential

​

Potential, not prediction.

Fiber Index Fit™ helps you determine if a food is a good fit for your day.

Different priorities can call for different FITs.

​

Sometimes carbohydrate availability is the priority. At another occasion, a stronger fiber context may be preferred. And sometimes the right FIT is somewhere in between.

​

Fiber Index Fit™ helps connect the food's FI Class™ to the nutritional priority of the occasion.

​

Different foods. Different priorities. Different occasions. Different FITs.
