Product Introduction
Our Organic Inulin Artichoke Powder is premium linear fructan soluble dietary fiber exclusively extracted from certified organic Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) tubers, not chicory root. Adopting pure hot water extraction, low-temperature concentration and spray drying technology, we deliver white fine powder with average DP 2–10, low monosaccharide content and excellent water dispersibility.
As a natural selective prebiotic, this organic inulin cannot be digested by human stomach and small intestinal enzymes. It reaches the colon intact to feed beneficial flora including Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, generating short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) to balance intestinal pH, boost calcium & magnesium absorption, stabilize post-meal blood sugar and protect intestinal barrier.
Different from high-DP chicory inulin, our Jerusalem artichoke-sourced inulin features milder gastrointestinal tolerance, less bloating risk for end consumers, making it an ideal clean-label bulking agent, texturizer and prebiotic raw material for global food manufacturers and supplement brands.
