Description
This prebiotic is made from ground chicory root (inulin powder), which feeds your healthy gut bugs and allows for them to perform at their optimum, which in turn contributes to improved digestion, immunity and overall health.
Benefits may include:
-Improved digestion
-Assistance with constipation
-Improved blood sugar levels
-Assistance with weight management
Unlike probiotics, which contain live organisms, prebiotics are specialised plant fibres that act as food for our gut microbiome.
Prebiotics are found in many fruits and vegetables, especially those that contain complex carbohydrates, such as fibre and resistant starch. These carbohydrates are not digestible by the body, and are therefore able to pass through the stomach and make their way to the large intestines virtually intact, where they are then consumed by our good gut bugs. This process allows for the production of short-chain fatty acids that then nourish the cells lining the colon allowing for optimal gut function and a host of health benefits associated with this.
Maxi Prebiotic (MaxiFos) has a pleasant flavour with a mild sweetness with the benefit of no added sugar. It can be sprinkled over food, or added to hot or cold beverages.
It also has a very low glycemic index, making it safe for those with diabetes or monitoring their blood glucose levels.
