Gentle but effective prebiotic
The media could not be loaded. This inulin powder is high quality and works great for digestion without causing bloating or discomfort. Please do your research and start your dosage slow. I took too big of one the first time and became very nauseous. That was my fault. I scaled the dosage way back and have slowly been working up to the full dose and haven’t had any problems. I’ve noticed smoother digestion since adding it in regularly. The texture is fine and mixes easily with room temperature water, and there’s hardly any smell/taste to it. The bottle is a generous size and lasts a long time. My sleep quality hasn’t changed since using it. It’s definitely worth the price. The only complaint I have is the way they designed the caps on the bottles.

Great probiotic powder
No taste,easily dissolves in drink! Nice for gut health, stimulates growth and activity of probiotics in large intestine. Has a slightly sweet taste.

Good brand and a good idea for your gut!
Inulin is a great prebiotic that doesn't mess with blood sugar and helps to regulate your gut function. I'm new to taking it. I like the brand for reliability and testing. It's a fine powder that does get sticky on the spoon, but it seems to mix easily into my banana milk kefir smoothie. Now, if you're sensitive to stuff, you may find that it makes you a bit sleepy, which is why they recommend taking it before bed! I tried that, but I try not to consume anything prior to bedtime, so I went right back to a lunchtime smoothie with inulin, and I'm powering through the urge to nap! I haven't noticed anything physically yet, and I suppose that's a good thing! No ill effects whatsoever! Good brand and a good idea!

No taste
The inulin powder works really well — it dissolves easily and has no taste at all, so I can add it to my drinks or food without noticing. It’s an easy way to add more fiber into my day. The only downside is that it can clump a little if I don’t stir right away, but overall it’s a great product and super convenient.

Taking for my brain. ABSOLUTELY tasteless. Excellent value.
After seeing a few articles describing the cognitive benefits to Inulin Fructo-oligosaccharide I opted to give it a try to see if it could help with my deteriorating memory. A study conducted at London's Crown College found that cognitive test scores of elderly patients improved after 12 weeks on this supplement. This may seem odd for a digestion supplement but there have been a number of discoveries in the last few years concerning the connection between gut health and brain function. Apparently this stuff feeds some normal variety(ies) of gut bacteria that produce some compound that crosses the blood/brain barrier and does your grey matter a good turn. The study also found and noted that it had no other benefits at all as I assume this stuff was previously being marketed under other claims.I started off with capsules. Though large, they were easy to swallow. I noticed no effect from them whatsoever good or bad, though they only last 4 weeks. I went to a 1 pound bottle of powder this time and have continued for another ten days or so. I have only my subjective opinion to rely on, but I feel as if I am seeing some small improvements in my memory: name recall, function recall, processing, etc. This time it seems as if use of the powder may have slightly increased flatulence (farting) but not problematically so and even if it was the Inulin, the effect is fading off. The powder is ASTOUNDINGLY tasteless. Last night I dissolved two heaping teaspoons in perhaps 5 ounces of warm water and when I drank it, it tasted EXACTLY like a glass of water. The water does not need to be warm - I was only trying to enhance and detect the taste of the stuff. The powder is extremely fine and dissolves quite readily. And I have mixed it in my morning coffee, juice and water. It would be perfect in smoothies if you're into those - I'm just too lazy for that.This powder was less than half the price/gram of the capsules I was taking and so I regard it as an excellent value. My deteriorating memory has been a major concern for me and the lack of effective therapies was distressing. This seems like a very low risk possibility with some valid science behind it. I plan to continue to take this stuf for 6 - 9 months before deciding whether or not I discern a valid, objective benefit. If I'd had some sort of baseline cognitive testing that I could repeat, I would test after 12 weeks to see if there were anything detectable happening. There is always the placebo effect but I do my best not to let my hopes and expectations hold sway. However, finding something that even suggests a valid possibility of therapeutic benefit improves my outlook on the future and I can't deny that is an enjoyable change. I will buy Inulin again and I will very likely buy it from NOW supplements.

I absolutely recommend this product!!
Research led me to try this after my Gastroenterologist advised me to supplement my diet with prebiotic fiber.This powder has only one ingredient: Inulin.Honestly, I had never even heard of it before. Searching various products, inulin generally speaking, from several reputable sources, reportedly possesses the qualities that could correct the issues that had afflicted me.Without any other changes daily or medication, I now also include 1 tbsp of high-quality extra virgin olive oil. My IBS has completely disappeared.It really is a miracle!Despite eating an otherwise healthy diet, I did not realize that I still lacked the additional prebiotics & fiber needed to create a healthy gut microbiome.This powder mixes well with plain water or anything else, and the taste is barely noticeable (aside from being slightly sweet if undiluted).I absolutely recommend this product!!

Great prebiotic
Great product. I use this when I'm making Greek yogurt in my yogurt maker. It feeds the probiotics. I mix it in a small amount of the milk I'm using along with the probiotics, then once a slurry is made out of it, I add in the rest of the milk and put it in the yogurt maker. Works every time.
