Xylanase hydrolyzes xylans, indigestible components of plant fibers. Since humans lack the endogenous enzymes required to digest plant fibers, the supplementation of xylans provides humans with an additional source of nutrition and reduces the bulking effect of fibrous foods. Scientific evidence suggests that carbohydrolytic enzymes, such as hemicellulase, can be useful supplements for digestive support and general nutritional support.
