Organic Inulin Powder | 250g | Prebiotic Fibre Supplement | Soluble Fibre Powder for Gut Health & Digestion | by Clearwave Health

I ordered this inulin to take together with probiotics to restore my gut health after a virus with intestinal symptoms.I did not have any intestinal discomfort, but I had trouble with sleep, so I was choosing gut probiotics with proven effect on sleep and brain work, and taking them with inulin for better effect.I took probiotics on empty stomach in the morning with a spoonful of inulin.Inulin is PREbiotic, which is a food for good healthy microbiome. The goal was to provide my probiotics with suitable food to consume, to give them best conditions for reproduction.I made some research and found out that when people say that “prebiotics are good for gut health” it does not describe precisely how it works.To make prebiotics work for good you need to have healthy microbiome in your gut that will feed on prebiotics (or if you have a goal to improve it, take prebiotics together with PRObiotics).And you also have to provide facilities in which good microbiome will consume prebiotics and work and reproduce, and the bad microbiome will not.To provide such facilities I refrained from coffee and food for 1,5-2 hours after I took the probiotics, because gastric juice prevents the newborn microbiome to reproduce and work.I found in my research that it is a MUST to refrain from sweet food or simple carbohydrates at least 2 hours after probiotics, because sugars are consumed by bad microbiome and if you feed it, it will reproduce more quickly and displace the new good microbiome, so all your probiotic effort will be in vain.Consuming protein food is better, still not perfect because of gastric juice, but not boosting bad microbiome, so proteins are ok in an hour after probiotics.So after taking probiotics with inulin for 2 or 3 weeks I got my sleep back. I also felt more effect from the supplements I was taking, I guess that’s because they started to absorb better in the intestines.Inulin is a white powder with consistency of a flour, does not have any particular taste or smell. Easily dissolves in water, comfortable to take.I took 1 bottle of 0% Actimel with no added sugar after probiotics and inulin. It felt more comfortable and helped me not to feel hungry (if I did not take actimel, I started feeling hungry in 30 min). The bottle is very small, also has probiotics and has no sugars which is really important.

This is a very good product and service.

This product dissolved well in hot drinks like tea and coffee. It tastes good with lemon and sparkling water. It helped my digestion but isn't a subtitute for dietary fibre. Would rather this came in a tin because the pouch was a pain.

This powder, which is tasteless can be added to breakfast cereal or mixed successfully into a glass of water/juice or morning beverage.If never taken before, start with the smaller amount and build it up, as it can cause flatulence until your body becomes used to it (common side effect).After a fortnight’s use, there has been a slight difference noted in my bloated abdomen - inasmuch as it’s slightly flatter and I am feeling more energetic. You must however drink plenty of water while using Inulin.As an organic product it comes in a resealable 250g pouch (adding a small scoop would be useful) and, having used a different brand before, I feel this offers better value for money.

I add this when making yogurt

Seems very good, lm using to feed yoghurt, no complaints!

I feel like it helps me to sleep. Pretty much tasteless and dissolves easy. Highly recommend.

Use this for making yogurt, works great.
