Fiber, when fed to animals or man, will generally cause increased excretion of bile acids. The level of bile acid excretion appears to be a function of the structure of the fiber. Fiber binds bile acids and bile salts in vitro. The extent of binding is characteristic for each type of fiber and each substrate. Bile acid binding may be one mechanism of the physiological action of fiber.
给动物或人类喂食纤维时，通常会导致胆汁酸排泄增加。胆汁酸排泄水平似乎是纤维结构的一种函数。纤维在体外能结合胆汁酸和胆盐。结合程度因每种纤维类型和每种底物而异。胆汁酸结合可能是纤维生理作用的一种机制。
