Avoid fiber in combination with dietary supplements

We recommend not taking it with other minerals, vitamins or medications. Fiber acts very quickly and takes everything with it. Other dietary supplements do not have time to be sufficiently absorbed. We recommend at least a 2-hour gap between taking other vitamins and minerals. The same applies to foods rich in fiber, such as legumes, cruciferous vegetables, or seeds. If you have only occasionally included foods containing fiber in your diet, even if you are used to consuming them, you may experience some problems, such as bloating or a feeling of fullness. These problems should gradually disappear. Cooperation between prebiotics and probiotics Gut health is closely related to sufficient fiber intake, as fiber positively affects the diversity and health of the microbiome. Prebiotic fiber (prebiotics) is nutrition for your microbiome. Probiotic bacteria (probiotics) are the strains of beneficial bacteria themselves. Prebiotics are therefore nutrition for our own probiotic bacteria, the inhabitants of our intestines, with which we have developed a symbiotic relationship over millions of years of evolution. They help us properly process the nutrients we eat and at the same time support the proper functioning of our immune system. There are more than 100 trillion bacteria in the human colon, and while some strains are beneficial to our health, others are less desirable. The beneficial ones need fiber to live a happy life. If they have enough of it, they thrive and can crowd out the less beneficial ones.

The study showed that increased fiber intake leads to significantly higher levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) in the gut compared to the control group. This increase in SCFA has a positive effect on gut health and may contribute to better regulation of energy metabolism and improved overall gut health.

• Acetate is the most abundant short-chain fatty acid, produced by the fermentation of fiber by intestinal bacteria and serves as a key source of energy for intestinal mucosal cells and other organs.
• Propionate is involved in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism
• Butyrate is the main source of energy for intestinal mucosal cells (colonocytes), supporting gut barrier health

SCFA - short-chain fatty acids

When our gut bacteria break down these types of fiber, they produce short-chain fatty acids SCFA (short-chain fatty acids). This creates a symbiotic relationship between the digestive system and the microbiome of our colon.

SCFAs are used by colon cells for:

• Energy
• Help with mineral absorption
• Help with metabolic functions.
• Support the restoration of the intestinal mucosa

Three types of fiber

The blend contains  inulin from blue agave  and  psyllium. It is a complex mixture of fructooligosaccharides that travel to the intestines and serve as a source of nutrients for beneficial bacteria. Healthy microbiome = good digestion. Prebiotic fiber also has the ability to absorb water, increase its volume and thus support bowel movements, which also contributes to their health and proper emptying and also to support overall immunity. 

Pectin is also part of Prebiotic Complex. Pectins are a group of polysaccharides found in fruit. We used apple pectin in the prebiotic complex. It is a fiber contained in apple peels, which are then ground into a fine powder. It is rich in soluble fiber and thanks to the whole mixture, it not onlysupports bowel movements, but also maintains a feeling of satiety for a longer time. It is therefore suitable not only for weight loss diets, but also for problems such as constipation.

A mixture of three types of fiber for proper digestion

Prebiotic Complex is composed ofpsyllium,inulin, andapple pectin. These prebiotic fibers are beneficial for the digestive tract because they provide nutrition for beneficial bacteria. These are fast-acting fibers that support proper digestion and the health of the entire digestive system and immune system.
