Description
Inulin from chicory root 300 g - Five Transformations
Inulin from chicory root is a natural dietary fiber that has many health benefits.
Inulin has many health-promoting properties, including:
- Supports digestion . Inulin is a prebiotic, meaning it feeds beneficial gut bacteria such as bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. These bacteria aid in digestion, nutrient absorption, and protect against infection.
- It helps maintain a healthy body weight . Inulin may increase feelings of fullness, which may help reduce calorie intake.
- Lowers cholesterol . Inulin may help lower LDL cholesterol, or "bad" cholesterol.
- Supports liver function . Inulin may help protect the liver from damage.
Chicory inulin is often added to food products as a sugar substitute because it has a slightly sweet taste. It's safe for people with diabetes and insulin resistance because it has a low glycemic index. It's also a source of vitamin K, folate, potassium, calcium, and iron.
Consumption in excessive amounts may cause a laxative effect.
