Inulin Powder 2.5kg

Product Description

Inulin powder has taken the country by storm after appearing in the BBC programme, “ How To Stay Young”, where its was highlighted for its numerous health benefits, including being a natural antidote to visceral fat. Not only that, Inulin is high in fibre, low in calories, & has been suggested it can help reduce blood fat & triglycerides levels, as well as cholesterol & constipation.

Inulin is a soluble fibre found in foods such as chicory root, asparagus, bananas, wheat & more, but the concentration of inulin in these foods is low. Inulin is non-digestible, so it passes through the stomach, & small intestine, into the large intestine where it feeds the good bacteria in the large intestine. The inulin becomes intestinal microflora or bifidobacterium.

Not only can it be used to promote good health, it has a range of other uses in the kitchen. Inulin powder can be used while baking to help preserve the moisture in cakes, & biscuits, & can also be used as a binding agent. Alternatively inulin can be made into a syrup but mixing it with hot water, & applying heat. A popular way inulin is also used is in shakes & smoothies, where it helps to make the drink thicker, more satisfying, as well as giving all the health benefits that comes with inulin.

The recommended daily dosage for normal dietary purposes is 10-14 grams daily, but for treating constipation, 20-40 gram should be used for 19 days.
