What is bulk inulin powder?
Inulin is widely found in Asteraceae plants (such as Jerusalem artichoke, chicory), garlic, onion,
etc., among which Jerusalem artichoke has the highest content (15%-20%). In industry, it is produced from chicory or Jerusalem artichoke through water extraction, spray drying and other processes.
Bulk Inulin powder is a reserve polysaccharide in plants, formed by the polymerization of D-fructose through β-1,2-glycosidic bonds, with a degree of polymerization ranging from 2 to 60. Its molecular formula is GFn (G is a glucose residue, F is a fructose unit). It appears as a white powder and is easily soluble in water. Its sweetness varies depending on the chain length: short-chain inulin is about 30%-50% as sweet as sucrose, while long-chain inulin has almost no sweetness.

What is bulk inulin powder good for?
1. Lubricating and Laxative Effect
Inulin contains a large amount of dietary fiber, which promotes gastrointestinal motility and facilitates digestion and absorption.
2.Promote intestinal health
Bulk Inulin powder is a water-soluble dietary fiber that is not directly digested and absorbed by the human body after entering the intestines. Instead, it is fermented and utilized as a prebiotic by beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. When these bacteria decompose inulin, they produce short-chain fatty acids (such as butyric acid and propionic acid), which help lower the pH value of the intestine and inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria (such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella), thereby maintaining the balance of the intestinal microecology.
3.Promotes mineral absorption
The acidic environment created by inulin fermentation in the colon can lower the pH value of the intestine, increase the solubility of minerals such as calcium and magnesium, and make them easier to absorb.
4. Aids Weight Loss
Inulin, on the other hand, is a natural water-soluble dietary fiber that cannot be digested or hydrolyzed by gastric acid and can only be utilized by beneficial microorganisms in the colon.After consuming inulin, the viscosity of the stomach contents can be increased to a certain extent, the speed at which food enters the small intestine can be reduced, the feeling of hunger can be alleviated, and thus the intake of food can be decreased, achieving the purpose of assisting in weight loss.

What is inulin in skincare?
Formula stabilization and skin feel optimization
-Inulin has excellent dispersibility, spreadability, and thickening properties, stabilizing emulsion structure and improving product texture uniformity.
-It inhibits foaming, reduces post-rinse residue, and leaves skin feeling refreshed and smooth.
-In powder products, it enhances fineness and improves smooth application.
Antioxidant and nutritional supplements
-Inulin can be absorbed through the skin, slowing skin aging and reducing oxidative damage by scavenging free radicals.
-The polysaccharide structure it contains provides nutritional support for skin cells and promotes the repair of epidermal barrier function.
Microecological regulation mechanism
-As a prebiotic, inulin selectively promotes the proliferation of beneficial bacteria (such as Staphylococcus epidermidis) on the skin's surface, inhibiting the overgrowth of harmful bacteria.
-By regulating the balance of the microbiome, it enhances skin immunity and reduces the risk of inflammatory reactions such as acne and eczema.

Does inulin help with belly fat?
Bulk inulin powder may have a certain auxiliary effect on reducing abdominal fat, but it cannot achieve local fat reduction alone.Its core mechanism is to regulate the intestinal flora, improve metabolic function and help reduce fat accumulation in the body.The reduction of abdominal fat is the result of overall fat reduction.However, the effect varies from person to person and needs to be combined with diet and exercise.
Is inulin powder safe daily?
Moderate consumption of inulin powder is beneficial to health, but excessive intake or consumption by certain groups of people requires caution. Inulin is a natural dietary fiber that acts as a prebiotic to regulate intestinal flora, but improper intake may cause discomfort such as bloating and diarrhea.
Where to buy bulk inulin powder?
1. Applied in food industry, Chicory Extract Inulin is usually used as food additives.
2. Appplied in the field of cosmetics.
3. Applied in fields of health products, Inulin can be widely used in many industries and foods such a s chocolate, ice-cream, soft drinks, dairy products.
