A shelf-stable, ready to use, water-like composition for humans/animals;
as an adjunct to fiber-water, and/or safe drinking water, consumed
directly, tube feedings, or in the preparation/reconstitution of
food(s)/beverage(s). Fortified Fiber-Water is fiber-water, with added
delivery systems: Encapsulations/particles, of different size(s),
shape(s), material(s), colors, non-visible, serving one or more
functions: improved taste, odor-masking; controlled release applications;
bio-availability of actives, avoid hygroscopicity; minimized
interactions, improved thermal, oxidative, and shelf-life; decorative.
Viscosity changing elements, (with one or more viscosity changing
additives, with or without encapsulations, particles) to enhance delivery
of active medicants/ingredients of categories: pharmaceuticals,
nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, therapeutics, diagnostics, etc.
Composition ensures hydration, simultaneously providing soluble fiber
(fiber-water), with additives contained within the delivery systems,
having the ability to target specific health goals/needs: weight loss,
diabetes, cholesterol/heart, gastrointestinal tract
disorders/improvement, osteoporosis, cancer, pain, stress, relaxant,
