Inulin

Function

• Potent Gut Microecology Modulation

As a dedicated nutrient source for Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, 

Inulin can significantly proliferate beneficial bacteria and suppress the growth of harmful bacteria;

Restoring gut microbiota balance.Its prebiotic activity is comparable to fructooligosaccharides (FOS).

• Gut Barrier Protection

Fermented by beneficial bacteria to produce short‑chain fatty acids (SCFAs);

Inulin lowers intestinal PH, stimulates proliferation of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells; 

Repairs damaged intestinal mucosa, strengthens gut‑barrier function; 

Reduces endotoxin translocation into the bloodstream.

• Bidirectional Regulation For Constipation & Diarrhea 

Short‑chain fatty acids boost intestinal peristalsis and raise faecal water content to relieve functional constipation.

Meanwhile, it modulates intestinal osmotic pressure to alleviate diarrhoea;

Provides auxiliary conditioning effects for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

• Promotion of Mineral Absorption

By lowering intestinal PH, it facilitates the dissolution of calcium, magnesium and iron ions; 

Increasing calcium absorption rate by 15%‑25% and lowering osteoporosis risk. 

Inulin is especially suitable for middle‑aged and elderly populations.

• Metabolic Health Support

Not absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract;

It features an extremely low glycaemic index (GI) and will not raise blood glucose;

Making it suitable for people with diabetes. 

It also reduces serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels to assist blood‑lipid regulation.

• Weight‑Management Support

Inulin increases food bulk, prolongs gastric emptying time, enhances satiety and cuts calorie intake. 

In addition, it inhibits fat synthesis to support weight control.

Application

• Food Industry

Yogurt & dairy products (texture improvement, thickening), functional beverages;

Baked foods (taste optimization, shelf‑life extension), meal‑replacement powders;

Ice cream, chocolate (anti‑crystallization)

• Healthcare Products

Gut‑regulating probiotic preparations, constipation‑relief products;

Calcium‑absorption supplements, weight‑management products;

Special‑purpose foods for diabetic populations 

• Feed Industry

Feed additives for livestock, poultry and aquaculture; 

Improves intestinal health, enhances feed conversion ratio, reduces diarrhoea incidence

• Pharmaceutical Field

Auxiliary conditioning for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), 

Prevention of antibiotic‑associated diarrhoea;

Nutritional support for post‑surgical intestinal repair
