Introducing happiGut™
NutriFoods™ is pleased to launch happiGut™, superfood for the gut. happiGut™ was inspired by the desire to support consumers on their journey to improved gut health – as we learn more and more that gut health impacts multiple systems in our body and profoundly impacts our health. happiGut™ is easy to use, versatile, effective and clean. The focus is on whole food, nutrient dense products that are not altered or have any additives.
What is happiGut™?
Being a single ingredient and whole plant prebiotic fibre, happiGut™ aids in an improved and balanced gut microbiome that has an enormous impact on multiple health systems, including cholesterol management, blood glucose, metabolism, weight management and immunity. happiGut™ is unique as it is not a fibre supplement, rather a whole plant food product delivered in an easy way to incorporate into a daily diet and improve the microbiome, gut health and beyond.
happiGut™ has been tested as low in FODMAPS, supporting those with IBS. It is an all-natural, single ingredient that is extracted from the sugarcane plant (95% sucrose removed). A low temperature process without the use of chemicals is followed to ensure the integrity of the plant. This optimises the fibre, maintains the inherent nutrients and makes this prebiotic fibre, a nutrient dense product.
Fibre and prebiotics
Fibre is known to support multiple health systems such as heart health, blood glucose levels, metabolism, weight management, immunity and a variety of digestive issues. happiGut™ contains as much fibre as one to two servings of fruit or vegetables, but without the natural sugar found in fruits and vegetables.
There’s an entire ecosystem going on in your gut and good bacteria need room to live and grow. Harmful bacteria can however take over the essential nutrients your body needs. happiGut™ helps by supporting the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut.
Researchers have found the most effective prebiotic actions come from the cell walls of plants. Sugarcane fibre is unique and effective as it contains both soluble (pectin) and insoluble fibre (hemicellulose and Lignin). Sugarcane fibre also contains important nutrient phytonutrients, like the trace elements: Silica, chromium, iron, zinc, tricin, manganese, selenium, and micronutrients such as policosanol, flavonoids (more than in green tea), and polyphenols.
