Natures Aid Inulin is pure inulin powder, a soluble prebiotic fibre extracted from chicory root to promote digestion, alleviate constipation and is also a great natural sweetener.
With its high fibre content and low calorie count, Inulin is a type of carbohydrate that cannot be broken down by your gut. Instead, it feeds the good bacteria in your colon - something that is often known as your 'Microbiome'.
The fibres that feed our good bacteria are also known as 'prebiotics', and a great deal of research is being carried out into how they work, and how they impact our health and bodies. With that in mind, we've created our Inulin 250g food supplement.
