Calnaturale™ svelte™

Who ever heard of Inulin? Svelte has of course, because we work at the leading edge of new innovations in the nutrition your body needs. Indeed, our company did early innovative work in the development of inulin products more than 20 years ago. You need fiber, and Inulin is both a complex carbohydrate and a spectacularly nutritious fiber for you.

Inulin is a very special fiber. Most plants utilize glucose only to make their fibers. There are many forms of the glucose-based fibers commonly available. And they are good for you too.

Svelte uses Inulin because Inulin is a unique fiber.

A very special few plants, the plants that create Inulin, use fructose, often called fruit sugar, together with the glucose as the backbone for their fiber. These plants include artichokes, asparagus, chicory, onions, garlic and others.

Because of inulin’s unique natural structure, it has a very mild, neutral, pleasant flavor. We always want Svelte to taste great!

But there is an even more important reason Svelte uses Inulin; Inulin is an extremely effective PRE-Biotic. Pre-biotics (not to be confused with probiotics) aid in digestion and in the absorption of calcium and magnesium. This means Inulin has been scientifically proven to be a powerful food, not for you directly, but a power food helping the GOOD microbes grow in your digestive system.  The Pre- Biotic Inulin helps promote the growth of the PRO-Biotics, which are the good bacteria you want in your body. The better you feed these little guys, the more they grow and the more they can work for your health.

The Inulin story seems unusual at first, but once you understand the benefits, Inulin is at the very forefront of human nutrition.
