Products typically have fiber listed under the Carbohydrate section. You want grams of Soluble Fiber.

Keto or low carb breads normally have incredible amounts of soluble fiber.

Psyllium is an excellent fiber, but it doesn’t seem to produce SCFAs. It does lower cholesterol and keep you regular, though.

Inulin, FOS, modified or resistant wheat or corn starch / modified or resistant maltodextrin are all examples of soluble fiber that can help bacteria produce SCFAs.

Is “soluble fiber” the same as “dietary fiber”?

We buy keto breads and buns all the time. They taste a little “off”, but we like sandwiches and burgers, so they work.

It all goes back to the gut microbiota :-)
