Safety & Health
- Health Functionality
Dietary fiber (non-digestible carbohydrates) intake helps to improve digestive health by diminishing constipation and inflammation in the large intestine; reducing also, the risk of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes, colon and liver cancer.
As prebiotic fiber Organic Blue Agave Inulin selectively stimulates the growth of beneficial gut microbes (probiotics). Organic Blue Agave Inulin could confer some health benefits for consumers such as improve the absorption of minerals (calcium and magnesium) in bones, regulate blood levels of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides to mention a few.
