NOW Foods Organic Inulin Prebiotic Powder, 1 lb — Soluble Fiber for Digestive & Colon Support

NOW Foods Organic Inulin is a pure, soluble prebiotic fiber powder that supports intestinal microbiota and colon health while adding mild natural sweetness to foods and drinks. This 1-pound jar of certified organic, Non-GMO Project Verified inulin from NOW Foods supplies a concentrated source of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) — a type of fiber that resists digestion in the upper gastrointestinal tract and reaches the large bowel to serve as nourishment for friendly probiotic bacteria. The powder blends easily into beverages, smoothies, and recipes, offering a low-glycemic way to increase soluble fiber intake. Manufactured under rigorous GMP standards, this inulin is quality-assured and free from genetically modified material.

How does NOW Foods inulin support digestive balance?

Inulin acts as a prebiotic: it travels through the stomach and small intestine intact, then is fermented by commensal bacteria in the large intestine. That fermentation produces short-chain fatty acids that help maintain the cells of the colon and support a balanced gut environment.

• Feeds beneficial Bifidobacteria and other probiotic strains*
• Promotes short-chain fatty acid production (butyrate, acetate, propionate)*
• Helps preserve normal colon cell nourishment and function*

Can I add this inulin powder to my daily meals and drinks?

The powder is fine-textured with a mildly sweet, neutral flavor, making it easy to mix into both hot and cold preparations without overpowering taste. Use small amounts at first to allow digestive adaptation, then increase as tolerated for added soluble fiber.

• Dissolves or suspends well in smoothies, coffee, or yogurt
• Works as a low-glycemic sweetening fiber in baking and sauces
• Start with 1/2 teaspoon and gradually move to 1–2 teaspoons or as directed

What quality assurances and certifications does this product have?

NOW Foods supplies this inulin as a certified organic ingredient that is Non-GMO Project Verified and produced in facilities following GMP protocols. Independent testing and traceable manufacturing practices help ensure product consistency and purity.

• Certified organic source of inulin (traceable raw material)
• Non-GMO Project Verified for ingredient integrity
• Manufactured in GMP-audited facilities with quality testing

Are there any glycemic or dietary considerations when using inulin?

Inulin has a very low glycemic index and contributes minimal impact on blood glucose when used in typical serving sizes. Because it’s a fermentable fiber, some people may experience mild gas or bloating during initial use; gradual introduction helps reduce these effects.

• Very low glycemic index — suitable for low-glycemic meal plans*
• May cause transient bloating or gas if increased suddenly
• Plant-based and suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets

Who is this for? This NOW Foods Organic Inulin Prebiotic Powder is aimed at anyone seeking to raise soluble fiber intake conveniently — especially those focused on gut microbial health, people following plant-based or low-glycemic diets, and home cooks who want a neutral, mildly sweet fiber to add to everyday recipes. It’s also appropriate for consumers who prioritize certified organic and Non-GMO products and prefer supplements made under recognized GMP quality controls. As with any dietary change, consult a healthcare professional if you have specific medical conditions or concerns before beginning regular use.
