Inulin, derived from chicory root, is a prebiotic well-known for its ability to support the beneficial bacteria in the gut. It is a great source of plant polyphenols and with its high fiber content can assist in regulating digestion and maintaining healthy bowel movements. When inulin mixes with liquid, it forms a gel-like substance that can help lubricate the digestive system. It can also absorb toxins and waste as it passes through. Due to its fibrous composition, it maintains its form as it moves through the digestive tract while producing beneficial byproducts that aid in creating a healthy GI lining.
