Description

Inulin is a natural dietary fiber common in many foods including onions, garlic, agave, jicama and artichokes.

Inulin is not digested or absorbed, and because of this, it has a zero glycemic index and produces no effect on blood sugar levels.

Research shows that inulin helps to boost friendly bacteria in the gastrointestinal system promoting good digestive health. It also boosts calcium absorption and may help strengthen your bones.
