The inulin we use in several of our products is a natural prebiotic. It’s extracted from the agave plant. The inulin stimulates the development of the beneficial microorganisms in the gut. In food production, it’s used as a structure-building ingredient, while in the intestinal microbiome, it feeds the good bacteria. The white in color, slightly sweet plant substance is resistant to the stomach and small intestine digestive acids. Since the inulin is a soluble fiber (on the way through the body, a gel is created), it doesn’t break down in the upper gastrointestinal tract and reaches the large intestine intact.
