According to the households budget data, and literature mean values of dietary fiber and its fraction in food products food intakes of these compounds were calculated and compared to recommendations taking into consideration main sources of them. The obtained results indicated that the mean dietary fibre intake was 23.7 g/per person/day (19.9-28.5 g/per person/day). Dietary food intake depended on type of household, and was less dependent on year. The mean soluble fibre intake was 8.8 g/per person/day (7.2-10.5 g/per person/day) and insoluble fibre was 14.9 g/day/person (12.1-18.0 g/per person/day).
