Claim:
A drink, which comprises 2 to 20% by weight of water-soluble dietary fibers, on the basis of the drink, said water-soluble dietary fibers being composed of water-soluble and hardly fermentable dietary fiber and water-soluble and fermentable dietary fiber, wherein said water-soluble and fermentable dietary fiber is present in a proportion of 0.1 to 3 parts by weight per part by weight of the water-soluble and hardly fermentable dietary fiber, wherein said water-soluble and hardly fermentable dietary fiber comprises depolymerized sodium alginate, and wherein said water-soluble and fermentable dietary fiber is at least one selected from the group consisting of indigestible dextrin, molecular weight-reduced guar gum and depolymerized hemicellulose, wherein a 5% by weight aqueous solution at room temperature of said water-soluble and hardly fermentable dietary fiber has a viscosity of 20 mPa·s or lower, and a 5% by weight aqueous solution at room temperature of said water-soluble and fermentable dietary fiber has a viscosity of 20 mPa·s or lower.
