Item description

Bio-Fiber is a dietary supplement without added nutrients. Each tablet contains a balanced mix of 460 mg. natural, soluble and insoluble vegetable fiber types in tablet form, derived from citrus pectins and sugar beets. Sugar beets increase stool volume, which is good for your digestion. Dietary fiber is found naturally in many unprocessed foods. They belong to the group of carbohydrates that we can not or only to a small extent digest, ie. break down into sugar and starch using our digestive enzymes. There are two groups of dietary fiber, the soluble and the insoluble. The soluble fibers become jelly-like with liquid and are able to bind water in an amount that can be up to 15 times their own weight. A diet with this type of fiber will give the intestinal contents more fullness and prolong the time the food stays in the small intestine, where the nutrient uptake takes place. Insoluble fibers can also absorb some water, but not nearly as much. This type of fiber will reduce the time the food stays in the intestine, and will, like the soluble fibers, give the intestinal contents more fullness. A normal intestine contains about 1 kg, and in some people up to 2 kg, intestinal bacteria divided into typically 160 different bacterial species. These gut bacteria break down the hard-to-digest proteins and carbohydrates from our diet, and they feed on fiber from our diet. The diet we eat therefore has an impact on the number and distribution of different bacterial species.
