Fiber supplement manufacturing

Prebiotic and functional fiber, formulated for texture and a real gram claim.

Dietary fiber is added to supplements using ingredients like chicory root fiber (inulin and fructooligosaccharides), citrus fiber, and resistant starches. In a gummy the fiber is a large part of the mass, so the job is hitting the fiber gram claim, keeping the gummy texture right, and often sweetening sugar-free with allulose. HBM manufactures fiber gummies in Tampa Bay, FL.

Chicory root fiber and prebiotics

Chicory root fiber, supplied as inulin or fructooligosaccharides (FOS), is a common prebiotic fiber used to add several grams of dietary fiber per serving. It dissolves well and carries a mild sweetness, which makes it a natural fit for a gummy or a drink mix. HBM formulates around the fiber source you specify and confirms the fiber content on the finished product.

Fiber grams and gummy texture

Unlike a micro-dosed vitamin, fiber is dosed in grams, so it makes up a real share of the gummy and directly affects the set and chew. Hitting 3 g of fiber per serving while keeping a clean texture is a formulation balance HBM manages between the fiber, the pectin system, and the coating.

Sugar-free with allulose

Fiber gummies are often positioned sugar-free, so allulose is a common sweetener that gives sweetness and bulk without adding sugars. Combined with natural flavors and a natural colorant such as black carrot, HBM builds a clean-label fiber gummy with 0 g total and added sugars. Gummy MOQ is 300,000 units.
