| Vegetable cellulose | Even though the structures of cellulose and starch are very similar, you can digest starch, but not cellulose, because humans don’t produce the enzyme necessary for cellulose digestion — though many species of bacteria do. When you consume cellulose, it passes through your stomach and small intestine unscathed, and is eventually broken down by bacteria in the large intestine. They produce gases as a byproduct of cellulose digestion, which is why high-fiber foods can sometimes cause bloating. |
