Formulation, characterization, and in vitro simulated gastrointestinal fluid analysis of chewable yogurt tablet incorporated with corncob fiber

This study formulates and evaluates a novel functional food, corncob fiber-infused chewable yogurt tablets, to enhance nutritional value. The tablets have the potential to alleviate gastrointestinal symptoms in the elderly and combat malnutrition in selective eaters, potentially replacing multiple s...
