PrebioMax Fibers

PrebioMax Fiber - Food for the Gut

PrebioMax is a powder containing natural fibers from sources including agave, acacia, chicory, and green banana. This type of fiber is also called prebiotics, and serves as nutrition for our own beneficial bacteria in the gut flora (PRObiotics).

PrebioMax supports good gut health and normal intestinal function.

PREbiotics are complex carbohydrates that are not broken down by stomach acids and in the small intestine into sugar, but instead reach the bacteria in the large intestine in their intact form, which promotes the development of existing bacterial flora. It can be summarized as resistant starch, meaning complex carbohydrates primarily in the form of insoluble but also soluble fibers.

This is why vegetables are so healthy - they contain both nutrients and fiber. Raw vegetables are best, because when you cook them for too long, certain fibers, such as inulin, break down into fruit sugar instead. You can notice that they become sweeter. Variation is also important because there are different types of prebiotics.

Prebiotics are naturally found in Jerusalem artichoke, chicory, asparagus, honey, legumes, arugula, bananas (green), apples, plums, yacon, cabbage, onions and garlic, but also in cooked cold root vegetables, such as potatoes. The most important substances in these are inulin, fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and pectin.

Adult dosage: 1 heaping tablespoon (approx. 6 grams). Note: Fiber may cause initial discomfort with gas and bloating. If this occurs, reduce the dose until symptoms subside and then slowly increase the dose again. The daily dose is 4-10 grams. Always start with a low dose. Mix the powder in liquid or sprinkle over food.

NOTE: Not for pregnant or nursing women. Those with severe conditions and IBS should be careful with prebiotics. Recommended dose should not be exceeded. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet. Store in a dry place and keep out of reach of children.
