Inulin is a prebiotic that supports the skin’s microbiome and skin-friendly bacteria which keep everything balanced. It offers moisturising properties, and is a natural humectant and conditioner.

Inulin is also a form of indigestible dietary fiber that makes one feel fuller for longer, helping control appetite and maintaining blood sugar levels. It is widely used in food as a sweetener and source of soluble fiber.

We love inulin primarily because it allows for a prebiotic in skincare! Using pre- and probiotics in skincare products is very on trend in the skincare industry currently.

I am sooo happy with the Inulin I bought through Essentially Natural. I add it to my homemade yogurt for my gut health. Will definitely buy again. It tastes like candy.
Their service are excellent as their products. This is my 1st choice of shopping Natural products.

Excellent service from Essentially Natural. Unfortunately Inulin caused severe side effects for our whole family, leading to very upset stomachs. Had to throw it away.
