Jetsu Inulin Powder Organic Chicory Root (FOS) - Soluble Inulin Fiber Prebiotic Intestinal Support, Enhances Calcium Absorption, Stimulates Friendly Bacteria, Promotes Prebiotic Growth, 8oz

My mother is 86, and has a SENSITIVE STOMACH. I did all my research and homework. For constipation she needed something and cannot take OTC items like Metamucil and Benefiber both these have either psyllium husk / Wheat.. very harsh. This item is PURE ORGANIC INULIN POWDER, nothing else added. It is wonderful if you like purity and simplicity.. besides Promotes Prebiotic bacteria growth, with many benefits and helps with constipation. I am glad to say this worked for my mother and did not bother her stomach. It is unflavored, you can put with coconut milk , or on food and unflavored. Also it is GENTLE, I recommend to give this a try, I really am being honest on this. I am my mother's caregiver and want only the best for my mother. You will love this...!!! :) Truly and honestly, speaking...

Apparently this is a bad batch, other people reported the same issue. Also the package includes a QR code that you are supposed to scan to get further details about the product but I never got the email after typing my name and email, save yourself from future spam emails and skip this part.

As a Nutritionist and an expert in Nutritional Science, I am deeply aware that, as Hippocrates said: "Good health starts in the gut." When it comes to my gut, I know what's important to keep my body in peak health condition. After all, about 80% of the immune system originates in the gut. So at the top of my list of health priorities is taking the best possible care of the 100 trillion friendly gut bacteria that also live in the body I am currently incarnated in. Knowing that, I never think of this body as my body, but as "our body," mindful that I am never alone. That said, for me taking good care of my 100 trillion microscopic friends is a must, for when they are healthy and happy, they in turn reciprocate by aiding many crucial body processes, as well as producing all the B vitamins I need, plus numerous other healthy compounds that help to also keep me healthy and happy. And on top of that, they are my private, personal super army to kill and destroy all the uninvited pathogenic invaders who may find a way to get into my system. Unfortunately, most people out there don't take good care of their microscopic friends the way I do, and their microbiomes are literal cesspools of trillions of dangerous, pathogenic, putrefying, unfriendly bacteria that contribute to numerous ill-health conditions, including a long list of autoimmune, degenerative diseases, which in turn make them feel miserable and accelerate their aging process. That said, I certainly would not want to kiss anyone who doesn't have a healthy microbiome, or have an intimate relationship with anyone like that, as I can only appreciate another person who is as clean and pure as I am. So the filthy and impure need no apply and no apologies for that! A good way to describe myself would be as: 100% natural, certified organic/non-GMO, no preservatives, artificial flavors or sweeteners, as well as pesticides/herbicides/chemical fertilizers-free. No sugar added. Just the way Mother Nature intended it. As a result of my taking utmost care of my inner legion of little, microscopic friends I have a bullet proof gut, am 100% free of parasites, mold, fungus, flukes and other kinds of dangerous microorganisms. They simply have no chance with me, as I have a ZERO TOLERANCE dietary regimen when it comes to all kinds of parasites, and declared all-out war on them. My daily diet is designed to constantly get rid of such unwanted parasitic invaders, which is the very reason why I am also 100% sugar/gluten-free. I mention gluten because it causes holes in the lining of the gut, which leads to leaky gut syndrome. And that's the very reason why I always enjoy maximum health and at 55 I feel like I am still in my twenties - not to mention the fact that that I also look many, many years younger, as I have ZERO wrinkles on my neck and face and the skin around the rest of the body I am in, looks and feels 100% silky, like a baby. I must add that I have not seen an M.D. now for the past 25 years. Needless to say, that I eat a daily dietary regimen that is 100% certified organic/non-GMO and take over 100 different nutritional compounds (supplements) also on a daily basis. All combined, it has kept me away from hospitals, M.D.s and 100% prescription drugs-free for all those many years. I know by my experience, that if people could take serious care of their health via a 100% nature-based, organic/GMOs/sugar/gluten-free nutritional regimen, they could stop being slaves to Doctors and prescription drugs, stop being pathetic and be as healthy and happy as I am. So as part of my carefully chosen gut dietary daily regimen, I take Inulin to help my friendly bacteria stay healthy and multiply constantly. I take this kind -chicory root inulin - simply because it's the best kind of inulin for the friendly bacteria. So yes, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND JETSU Chicory Root Inulin as the best I have found so far. Now my best wishes to all who may read this post.

The package arrived on time and well packaged. The product is tasteless and mixes well with my blender drinks. It seems to digest well and from the research I've done on inulin, this seems like a good product. I cannot speak to its efficaciousness because I haven't used it that long. I'm trying to use primary sources and might switch to chicory root and use that instead of inulin, since inulin is from chicory root. But maybe not...we'll see!

Pretty good. mixes well in water with no taste. I’ve found that taking this everyday is not the best for me. 1-2 times per week is all I need.
