Yes, amylose is a type of dietary fiber, specifically a component of starch. It is a linear polymer made up of glucose units and contributes to the dietary fiber content of foods when not fully digested by human enzymes. While amylose itself is not classified as soluble or insoluble fiber, it plays a role in the overall fiber profile of carbohydrate-rich foods. Foods high in amylose can have health benefits, such as improved gut health and blood sugar regulation.
