Inulin
made from Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus)
the best prebiotic fiber.
Same plant family as chicory root. A new generation root fiber with advanced level prebiotic and fiber functions.

A soluble dietary fiber drawn with water from the Jerusalem artichoke tuber, a new generation root species from the same plant family as chicory root. Over 90 percent inulin, neutral in taste, white and free flowing. It adds fiber, replaces sugar and calories, builds body and texture, and brings advanced level prebiotic and fiber functions to food, beverage and nutrition products.

Below the soil, the plant stores its energy in tubers.
Fine roots gather water. The tubers along them hold the plant's reserves as inulin, the fiber we extract.

A new generation
root fiber.

Grown underground, in the tuber of the Jerusalem artichoke.

Jerusalem artichoke is a new generation root species from the same plant family as chicory root, and it stores its energy the same way, as inulin. Water extracted and spray dried, Fibredex Inulin delivers over 90 percent inulin with advanced level prebiotic and fiber functions to meet the changing demands of customers.

Jerusalem artichokeHelianthus tuberosus
Root system. Fibrous roots take up water and minerals and hold almost no inulin. Tubers form at the ends of short rhizomes. The soil is dimmed to show the full network.
Where the inulin is. Inulin-type fructans are stored in the tuber parenchyma (green density), not in roots, stem or leaves. The dried powder from this tissue tested at 90.1 g inulin per 100 g.

Where the inulin
is stored.

Jerusalem artichoke stores carbohydrate in its tubers as inulin-type fructans, not as starch. That is where the ingredient begins.

02 · Function

One ingredient.
Two jobs.

Fibredex Inulin is the best prebiotic fiber from a new generation root species, the same plant family as chicory root, with advanced level prebiotic and fiber enrichment functions. The same ingredient does one job in the formulation and a second one after the product is eaten. That is why it earns a place in fiber-enriched dairy, beverages, bakery, bars and nutrition formats.

06roles in the formulation
06steps in the gut
I
In the formulation
Technical role · before the product is eaten
01
Fiber enrichment
Adds soluble dietary fiber without grit, colour or strong flavour.
02
Body & mouthfeel
Restores fullness and creaminess where sugar or fat has been reduced.
03
Texture
Creamier dairy, softer crumb, smoother frozen desserts.
04
Sugar & calorie reduction
Mild sweetness and bulk let you take sugar down without a hollow product.
05
Fat-reduction support
A creamy perception in reduced-fat yogurt, ice cream and spreads.
06
Binding & moisture
Holds bars together and helps baked goods keep moisture.
II
In the gut
What happens, in order · after the product is eaten
01
Resists upper-GI digestion
The β(2→1) fructose links are not broken down by human digestive enzymes.
02
Reaches the colon intact
Most of the chain arrives where the microbiota live.
03
Fermented by gut microbiota
Resident bacteria use it as a substrate. Fermentation yields short-chain fatty acids.
04
Supports beneficial bacteria
Helps promote beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacteria, supporting a healthier gut microbiome.
05
Digestive health
Can increase stool bulk and support regular bowel movements.
06
Prebiotic positioning
Recognised by FSSAI as a prebiotic compound. Claims subject to applicable regulations.
