Abstract
The invention relates to citrus fibers in dry form having a water holding capacity (WHC) of at least 35 mL of water per gram of anhydrous (0% moisture) fibers. Said fibers also have a swelling factor (SV), wherein when applying a gravitational force (G-force) on an aqueous medium containing 1 wt % of said fibers dispersed therein, the WHC varies with the G-force according to Formula (1) wherein DF is a decay factor of at least 500.
