Inulin Powder

Inulin Powder is a reserve polysaccharide in plants, mainly derived from plants, and more than 36,000 species have been found, including 11 families of dicotyledonous plants, such as Asteraceae, Platycodonaceae, Gentian family, and lilies and grasses in monocotyledonous plants. For example, Jerusalem artichoke, chicory tubers, the roots of tian zhu peony (Dali chrysanthemum), and the roots of thistle are rich in inulin, of which Jerusalem artichoke has the highest content of inulin.

In the United States in 2018, the Food and Drug Administration approved inulin as a dietary fiber ingredient.

As a prebiotic dietary fiber, inulin has a variety of health benefits. Inulin is a hypoglycemic agent. Inulin cannot be produced directly in the human body, nor can it be digested by human enzymes, so inulin can pass through most of the digestive system intact. When used as a sugar and fat substitute, inulin is not broken down into simple sugars through normal digestion, so it does not raise blood sugar levels, can reduce calorie intake, and help lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels.

1. Lower blood lipids

Inulin is very effective in improving vascular disorders. Inulin can not only reduce intrahepatic lipogenesis, but also increase the decomposition of blood lipids by extrahepatic tissues, promote the production of cytoplasmic gene intestinal peptides, regulate blood sugar and insulin levels, and reduce cholesterol levels.

2. Regulate blood sugar

Inulin is a hypoglycemic agent. Inulin is a carbohydrate that does not increase glucose in the urine. Eating or drinking inulin on an empty stomach can lower blood sugar levels. Inulin can regulate blood sugar levels without causing blood sugar spikes.

3. For weight loss

As a dietary fiber, inulin provides a very low energy value, so it can play a role in low-energy foods, maximizing the satisfaction of those who love desserts but are worried about gaining weight. People who are obese can use it with peace of mind.

4. Regulates gut flora

Inulin is a natural water-soluble dietary fiber that can hardly be hydrolyzed and digested by gastric acid and is only utilized by beneficial microorganisms in the colon, thereby improving the intestinal environment. Secondly, ingesting inulin can enhance gastrointestinal motility, improve gastrointestinal function, increase digestion and appetite, and many people who eat inulin obviously feel that their gastrointestinal function is enhanced, and their stools begin to flow.
