Definition clean up.

Not sure how good they could be but I would like to propose some definitions for Dietary fiber:

  1. A plant material that resists enzymatic digestion in humans and other monogastric species

  2. A plant material that resists digestion in the enzymatic digestive system in humans and other monogastric species

  3. A plant material which has resistance to enzymatic digestion in humans and other monogastric species

I got the human and monogastric species concept from Mößeler A., & Kamphues J. 2017.
The digestive processes in humans and other monogastric species like rat and pig are characterized by a predominantly enzymatic digestion within the small intestine and microbial fermentation located in the hindgut

Another definition suggested by @CropStoreDb

A plant material that resists enzymatic digestion in the digestive systems of humans and other monogastric species.

We think this definition could be more appropriate for CDNO, because plant inheres in the whole ontology and carbohydrate is the "genus" of this definition, according to Seppälä et al., 2017.

A carbohydrate that resists enzymatic digestion in the digestive systems of humans and other monogastric species.

It is also interesting that some lignin can be considered sources of dietary fiber.
