The relatively high IDF percentage in TNF suggests possible applications in dietetic–physiological products. The intake of this kind of fibre is linked to a sensation of satiety, since the fibre absorbs water and takes up space in the stomach and diminishes the need to consume more food. TNF also has a high water-holding capacity (WHC: 8.01 g/g) and oil-holding capacity (OHC: 6.92 g/g)
