Supports proper digestion

Inulin is a dietary fiber naturally found in many fruits and vegetables. It positively affects the digestive system. By consuming inulin, you can support proper digestion and reduce the risk of constipation. Inulin helps to dissolve the stool mass and thereby increases the frequency of bowel movements. It also regulates intestinal function and reduces the risk of constipation by improving digestive comfort. By supporting the maintenance of a normal mucosa in the colon, inulin reduces exposure time to potentially carcinogenic substances [5, 6].

Reduces constipation

Inulin is a type of soluble fiber that belongs to fructans and has a prebiotic effect by nourishing the beneficial bacteria in our gut. Gut bacteria use inulin to produce short-chain fatty acids that provide nutrition for the cells in the intestines, offering numerous health benefits for our body. By dissolving the stool mass, inulin helps to increase the frequency of bowel movements and regulate intestinal function. It reduces the risk of constipation by improving digestive comfort [5, 6].

Regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels

Consumption of fiber lowers glucose levels and also decreases the absorption of cholesterol by reducing the total level and the LDL fraction in the blood. By increasing the feeling of fullness, inulin helps to better control appetite and calorie intake, facilitating the process of losing weight and reducing body fat [1-4].

Increases feeling of fullness

Inulin increases the feeling of fullness, which can be helpful in weight loss. By increasing the feeling of fullness, inulin helps to better control appetite and calorie intake, facilitating the process of losing weight and reducing body fat [3, 4].

Research on inulin

Several studies have investigated the health effects of inulin. One study showed that inulin-type fructans can improve blood sugar control in people with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes [1]. Another meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found that inulin can lower blood lipid profiles in both people with normal lipid levels and those with high lipid levels [2]. Another study showed that acute supplementation of inulin-type fructans reduces appetite sensations [3]. Another randomized controlled study found that consumption of inulin and beta-glucan reduces appetite and energy intake in healthy women [4]. There are also studies showing that inulin affects the composition of gut microbiota and can have positive effects on gut health [6, 7].
