What Does NSP Stand For?
NSP stands for Non Starch Polysaccharide
NSP, or Non Starch Polysaccharide, refers to a category of carbohydrates that are not digestible by human enzymes. These polysaccharides are found in plant cell walls and include fiber components such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectins.
