Why our Inulin versus others?
- Circle K certified (Kosher Certified)
- GRAS, USDA approved
- Certified by Halal Correct
- Inulation has an Average Chain Length of 8-13 monomers
- Inulin chain length can vary between 2-60 monomers
- Complies with GMO Labeling regulations All fructans (inulin/oligofructose) in this product can be analyzed by the following methods: (AOAC 997.08), (AACC32-31), (AOAC 999.03), (AACC32-32).

|
Inulin in Lipid Control
- Serum and LDL cholesterol
- Serum triglycerides
- Cholesterol synthesis
- HDL/LDL ratio
- Biosynthesis of fatty acids
|
Inulin in Calcium Supplementation
- Calcium absorption and balance
- Bone loss
- Bone density
|
Inulin in mineral bioavailability
- Several animal (rodents) and human studies have demonstrated significant improvement of mineral balance, particularly (Ca++, Mg++) and bone density with inulin.
Immuno-stimulant
- Reduction in toxic and carcinogenic bacterial metabolites
- Reduce eczema
- Control allergies & asthma
- Regulate autoimmune conditions
- Activate the ACP stimulation (improve macrophage activity)
Excellent Nutritional Properties:
- Inulation has by nature an average degree of polymerization of 8 to 13 (chain length) and a molecular weight of about 1600.
- Low Calorie: Not digested by human digestive system and contributes only about 1.6 kcal/g.
- Soluble dietary fiber: Anti-constipation, colonic pH reduction, cholesterol and triglyceride reduction.
- Diabetic friendly: Glycemic index of zero, no influence on blood glucose, no stimulation of insulin excretion.
- Stimulates bifidus: Preferred food for bifidobacteria. Inhibition of other harmful bacteria, reduction in toxins and carcinogens, activation of immune system, synthesis of vitamins, improved mineral absorption.
- Non-Digestible: Inulation - Inulin (Prebiotic) is neutral in odor and taste and only has 1.6kcal/g. It is a soluble dietary fiber, resisting digestion by mammalian alimentary secretions, alpha-amylase, and disaccharides such as maltase, isomaltase, sucrase and lactase.
