So, what is inuline?

Inuline is a natural dietary fiber found in a variety of plants such as chicory, artichokes, and asparagus. It is a white, odorless powder that is commonly used as a functional ingredient in food products due to its ability to improve texture, increase fiber content, and promote gut health. Inuline is a prebiotic fiber that helps feed beneficial bacteria in the gut, supporting digestion and overall health. This versatile ingredient is also used in the production of cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels. As a low-calorie, low-glycemic sweetener, inuline is a popular ingredient in health-conscious food products.
