I'm confused. If "these noodles are composed primarily of soluble fiber" why does the label state 0 Fiber?

Not really sure. I do know the FDA ruled that if a serving of food is less that 5 calories, companies can label it as 0 calories. Same with sugar and carbs (less than 1g), so maybe fiber they can do the same. Konjac noodles are 97% water and 3% fiber, so that would be my guess. Good question, I never thought about it. I might email miracle noodles and see if I can get an answer. I did just go to their website and saw nutritional information. Carbs is labeled as "&lt;1g-only fiber." So I'm thinking they just wanted to label everything as 0 this 0 that for marketing. But there is less than 1g of fiber per serving. Hope that helps.

It is so dilute that it is non detectable when sent for nutritional analysis. There are around 2 g of fiber used to make the whole bag.

My guess is that the FDA intention with that category is to identify how much of the specifically investigated forms of dietary fiber the product contains. Fiber is actually a complex cluster of different polysaccharides with similar digestive properties. They aren't committing to saying that everything in that cluster meets the recommended requirements for health intended by dietary fiber. The FDA labeling site doesn't mention glucomannen among it's recommended forms of dietary fiber. Great question by the way!

I am not on a gluten-free diet and am not an expert on the subject. If I were on a gluten-free diet I would contact the manufacturer. But I can tell you that the product does contain wheat and I would normally assume that the noodles are not gluten free. Still, I am reluctant to have anyone follow my advice on an important health issue.

my understanding is that it is neither. it is the whole components of whey, I suppose more like concentrate but since it is grass-fed, cold processed I will assume as I said, neither which is a good thing, it is far less processed than most whey isolates or concentrates, like eating a whole food instead of a packaged food. maybe someone else can be more precise.

I am allergic to soy and am glad to report there is NO soy in this product. However, the noodles you buy in the grocery stores are made from soy. Just be sure to let the noodles sit in whatever sauce you make for at least 10 minutes before you eat them. They alone have absolutely no taste. Hope this answers your question. Will be happy to answer any more if you have any.

I have not seen a separate label that you're referring to. It definitely says raw, unpasteurized, etc. on the jar label. The fact that it's pretty solid tells me that it has not been processed. That's all I can tell you. :-)

Sorry, I can't figure out a way to upload a picture of the labels. I can tell you that the primary ingredient is "Carbalose". This is a trademarked term. If you can't find the information you need on the web, maybe can try searching on that. As far as carbs are concerned, 1/3 cup of the mix has 16g of total carbs, 14g of which are insoluble fiber; 0g of sugars. Hope this helps.

The only ingredient listed on the label is "Soy Flour". The nutritional information is not legible.

If you look at the label, it says " sugar- 0 mg". Sugar is not listed as an additive.

I recently purchased Nature's Plus Spiru-tein Gold, Banana Berry Blast. I haven't even opened it yet because it is based on Chia Rice and Peas and I am prone to IBS (I'm wary of any product that is lentil based). I usually get the regular Spiru-tein high protein sans the peas, and I loved it. Anyway, according to the label on this can, even though Carbs is at 19g. under sugar it is 0. Mixed with milk it goes up to 11g of sugar. I cannot vouch for its validity, that is just what the label states. But, all in all Spiru-Tein is a wonderful product and a life saver on a busy day. I am mostly concerned with the vitamin and protein rating. Mostly, the protein rating!

A better question might be why are the others so expensive? I've seen a single package of ramen noodles (the 3oz size) listed for over $100.00, too, but it was still the same thing you can routinely find for less than a quarter. Prices are market driven (or wishful thinking?). This brand is what they say it is. The therapeutic designation means it is unadulterated, but it is a good idea to dilute it adequately before using it in any manner. If you're looking to ingest it, using orange blossom water is probably the safest way to go.

I agree with this question label says 12g fiber then at the bottom says "not a significant" amount of fiber. IF it were only 8 it would still be a significant amount of fiber, but at 12 g (which would make it carb neutral as the verbiage states, so it would have to be equal to the number of carbs) then it's nearly half the recommended daily amount, which is by all means significant. Something is fishy.

The item is not no-carb, and the label doesn't say zero sugar- it says low carb. It clearly says "7g net carbs" on the front, meaning that there are some carbs in a serving.

I have no idea, but perhaps there is a toll-free # on the bottle itself. I would also think that Amazon could answer this ? because they sell this product through their site. Best of luck to you. Fiber supplements help, portion control, and an increase in activity are very important and effective.

I primarily add wheat gluten to my bread recipes which provides the extra gluten that whole-grain loaves need to rise their highest. It's particularly helpful in loaves that use low-gluten or whole grain flours, such as rye, oat, or buckwheat. I have no idea what it will do for noodles. Give it a try, and let me know if it improves the noodles. I am sure it would improve the elasticity of the noodles.Gluten provides yeast bread's structure, and helps it rise and stay risen.

Certianly! I really enjoy these noodles. Covenient and handy to have on hand. Not needed but sometimes I occasionally add some small chunks of chicken or beef. Cook the vegetable packet enclosed a little before adding noodles.Gives it even better flavor.I've got my neighbors turned on to these now. I highly reccomend these.Seasoning is perfect for me. Although delicicious ,too much pasta is not great for proper diet.Some sodium but not lethal-ENJOY!

Fiber content is 0 grams. My husband is gluten intolerant, so we sacrifice fiber for digestive wellness.

0 net carbs, same amt. fiber as carbs. making it 0, use it for baking low carb bread, carefull tho , use too much and bread will taste like card board.
