Antioxidative Perspectives; Antioxidants play an essential role in protecting the human body against oxidative processes. Most insoluble dietary fibers show little antioxidative activity – or none at all. Initial in vitro studies have demonstrated that caromax fiber works as an efficient scavenger against free radicals and other reactive substances.; Digestive Perspectives; caromax possesses a high content of insoluble dietary fiber and is especially rich in lignin. Its physiological properties (water-holding capacity and resistance to human digestive enzymes) contribute to an improved intestinal motility and bowel function.; A natural solution for healthy food; Carob powder is an excellent substitute for cocoa and chocolate because it contains in its composition the theobromine, which presents side effects like headache, inappetence or allergies.
