The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is reopening the comment period for the document requesting scientific data, information, and comments entitled "Evaluation of the Beneficial Physiological Effects of Isolated or Synthetic Non-Digestible Carbohydrates" that appeared in the Federal Register of November 23, 2016 (81 FR 84595). In the document, we requested scientific data, information, and comments to help us determine whether a particular isolated or synthetic non-digestible carbohydrate should be added to our definition of "dietary fiber" for purposes of being declared as dietary fiber on a Nutrition Facts or Supplement Facts label. We also announced in the document the availability for comment of a scientific literature review document that we conducted that summarizes clinical studies associated with 26 specific isolated or synthetic non- digestible carbohydrates. We are taking this action in response to requests to allow interested persons additional time to submit comments.
