Abstract: The utilization of sugar beet fiber (SBF) and rice-based distillers dried grain (RB-DDG) as a source of food ingredients is a prime focus of this short study. SBF and RB-DDG are extracted from waste sugar beet pulp produced in the sugar industry and grain-based distillery respectively. The mixture of SBF and RB-DDG has been given the name HNFP (Healthy nutrients-rich fine powder). The oven drying, grinding, mixing, and mesh screening were used for the preparation of HNFP from the two raw industrial wastes. HNFP has components, Carbohydrates, proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals. Which has the potential to be utilized as an essential food ingredient. The prepared HNFP has obtained results that show cation exchange capacity, water holding capacity, and oil binding capacity as 0.5 mEq/gm, 8.5 gm/gm, and 1.95 gm/gm respectively, or the average swelling capacity 12 ml/gm was obtained. These properties complete the requirements of good food ingredients for the human gut system. This communication is the first article that represents an idea that will analyze the use of HNFP as a food additive extracted from sugar beet fiber with a combination of high nutrients rich rice-based distillers dried grain (RB-DDG).
