Soluble Fibre Blend provides a Certified Organic, non-GMO blend of Baobab and Acacia fibres that help to manage weight, lower cholesterol, reduce heart disease risk, and promote healthy digestion. Fibre is the part of plant material that our bodies can’t break down and use as a fuel source, but it plays a very important role in our digestive pathway and is crucial to our overall health. There are two types of fibre: soluble and insoluble.
Insoluble fibre does not completely break down and is left intact as “roughage” as it moves through the digestive tract. Think of it like the fibrous parts of celery. Soluble fibre, as the name suggests, dissolves in water and it becomes a gel-like substance in our digestive system. It is found in beans, seeds, lentils, oats, barley and some fruits and vegetables. Think of it like the sticky consistency of oatmeal: the gel-like matrix slows digestion to provide a variety of health benefits.
Features:
- weight management: keeps us feeling full for longer to curb appetite, reduce sugar cravings, and prevent some fats from being absorbed
- lowers cholesterol: reduces the amount of cholesterol that is absorbed from food and helps the body to eliminate cholesterol through the colon
- stabilizes blood sugar: slows down the speed at which we break down and absorb sugars, preventing a dramatic spike and crash of blood sugar, and instead slowly and evenly releasing sugars into the bloodstream. This reduces our risk of type 2 diabetes and obesity, and also helps us maintain energy and mental clarity throughout the day
- reduces heart disease risk: lowering cholesterol, stabilizing blood sugar and assisting with weight management contribute to reducing the risk of heart disease
- promotes healthy gut flora: acts as a food source to healthy bacteria in the colon, helping to nourish a healthy gut environment
Medicinal ingredients: organic acacia gum powder (4g), organic baobab fruit powder (3g)
