Are fibers and cellulose the same?

Fibers and cellulose are related but not the same. Cellulose is a type of carbohydrate that forms the primary structural component of plant cell walls, while fibers refer to various materials, including cellulose, that provide strength and support in plants. In dietary terms, "fiber" often refers to plant-based substances, including cellulose, that aid digestion but are not fully broken down by the human body. Thus, cellulose is a specific type of fiber, but not all fibers are cellulose.
