Coca-Cola Fiber+ is a diet variant of the soft drink Coca-Cola with added dietary fiber in the form of dextrin. It was developed by Coca-Cola Asia Pacific and launched locally in Japan during March 2017. The soft drink has been approved by the Japanese FOSHU as a functional beverage and is meant to serve as an option for health-conscious consumers who have varying desires when it comes to beverages, such as sweetened/non-sweetened, more/less caffeinated, or in the case of Coca-Cola Fiber+, having more fiber. According to Dr. David Machiels, product development director at Coca-Cola Asia Pacific, "Drinking one Coca-Cola Plus per day with food will help suppress fat absorption and help moderate the levels of triglycerides in the blood after eating. … so we hope people will drink it with meals." Coca-Cola Fiber+ is available in Japan, Taiwan, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Mongolia.
