Sensitive Gut Fiber - Low FODMAP Prebiotic Fiber*
Fiber can be especially helpful in supporting healthy digestion and bowel regularity, yet over 90% of Americans do not meet the daily recommended intake for dietary fiber (25g for women and 35g for men). This is part of the reason that so many people come to us looking for help with constipation and bowel issues. However, many of our customers also come to us with severe gastrointestinal symptoms and extremely sensitive guts, and most fiber options cause them discomfort. We took it upon ourselves to create a fiber supplement that would be safe, effective, and comfortable for everyone, sensitive guts and all. This is where our Sensitive Gut Fiber comes in!*
The low FODMAP fibers found in our Sensitive Gut Fiber offer a comfortable and effective way to help get the daily recommended fiber you need to help get your bowels back on track. It may also help to support healthy weight management, blood sugar control, and immune function. If you are struggling with any of these issues and want to restore your regularity without the harsh side effects, Sensitive Gut Fiber by Silver Fern™ Brand is the answer!*
What is in Sensitive Gut Fiber?
- Sunfiber® Galactomannan Guar Fiber
- Baobab Fruit Powder
- Acacia Fiber
Sensitive Gut Fiber includes a specialized blend of unique ingredients designed to work together to help several areas in the gut. The ingredients combine together to help provide comfortable digestive support, promote the growth of beneficial and healthy gut bacteria, and help restore regularity in the bowels, all without the harsh side effects that come with so many fiber supplements.*
Sunfiber® Galactomannan Fiber:
Sunfiber® is one of the most well-tolerated and extensively studied prebiotic fibers on the market with over 180 published papers and more than 120 clinical and scientific studies. More commonly known as partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG) or guar fiber, Sunfiber® is a galactomannan-based soluble dietary fiber made from guar beans. It can help to support bowel regularity, feed healthy gut bacteria, and increase feelings of satiety in children and adults.*
Sunfiber® serves as an osmolytic, which means that it can both remove and add water to the colon, depending on the conditions. This means that it can help with stool consistency in cases of both occasional constipation and diarrhea. In this way, Sunfiber® can help support bowel regularity.*
In terms of tolerability, Sunfiber® is also a slow fermenting fiber, which results in less gas and stomach distress than other rapidly fermenting fibers like inulin or FOS. Sunfiber® can also support a healthy and balanced gut microbiome. Consistent consumption of Sunfiber® can help to increase the abundance of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species, the beneficial bacteria that is often lacking in constipated individuals.*
Low levels of Bifidobacterium and a higher abundance of Bacteroides has often been reported in people with IBS. Sunfiber® can help increase the abundance of Bifidobacterium and decrease the abundance of Bacteroides, helping to normalize gut bacteria.*
Sunfiber® can also help increase the production of postbiotics like butyrate in the intestines, which can help promote intestinal repair. This increase in butyrate production can help improve satiety and blood glucose regulation.*
Inavea™ BAOBAB ACACIA:
Inavea™ BAOBAB ACACIA is a certified FODMAP friendly blend of soluble fibers from the baobab fruit and acacia tree. It can help ease digestion, boost beneficial gut bacteria, and gently cleanse the colon.*
Inavea™ BAOBAB ACACIA is a slowly fermented prebiotic that is well-tolerated and can enhance digestive health and general wellbeing.*
As a prebiotic, inavea™ BAOBAB ACACIA can help increase the abundance of Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Christensenella, and Akkermansia species, as well as Faecalibacterium prausnitzii.*
Lactobacillus species are well-known for their wide variety of health-promoting properties in the gut, but they are often poor survivors of digestion in the form of probiotics. Feeding them with prebiotics is a more reliable way to ensure adequate population abundance in the gut microbiome.*
Bifidobacterium species are strong butyrate-producers and believed to be some of the most significant commensal organisms for gut health.*
Christensenella minuta and Akkermansia muciniphila appear to play a significant role in the maintenance of metabolic health and modulation of fat mass.*
Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is also a strong butyrate-producer that is often lacking in individuals with marked intestinal inflammation like Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis.*
Acacia fiber can help increase the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) like butyrate, propionate, and acetate better than other fibers like FOS, cellulose, and psyllium husk. Butyrate plays an integral role in the health of intestinal barriers.*
Acacia fiber can also help improve gut permeability through the activation of tight junction proteins.*^
Going beyond the gut, the consumption of acacia fiber can help modulate fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, and insulin levels.*# Higher intakes of acacia fiber may even help to improve total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. *#
