2. AACC-Dietary Fiber Definition Committee, 2006. There is no FDA/USDA definition of dietary fiber. Current FDA rules, appearing in the CFR, pertain to what is measured and reported on the Nutrition Facts panel. The FDA in their rules on health claims refers to dietary fiber provided by whole cereals/grains, fruits and vegetables. In making laws to incorporate the amount of dietary fiber on the food label, the results obtained by approved AOAC methods has become the de facto definition of dietary fiber in the United States. This dietary fiber is the residue resulting after a food is treated with three hydrolytic enzymes, plus the material precipitated in 70% ethanol.
