Detailed Ingredient Description:
Actazin is a uniquely processed and very pure kiwifruit ingredient. Golden kiwifruits contain great nutritional value. they are rich in vitamins (particularly vitamin c) and minerals (particularly potassium) and are an excellent source of fibre. Their high-fibre content and unique mucilage make them a gentle and effective laxative. Kiwi fibre has a profound yet gentle normalizing effect on the digestive tract which is beneficial in conditions ranging from iBS to constipation and diarrhea. fruits like kiwi and papaya naturally contain protease enzymes, such as cysteine and serine protease, that can normalize gut motility of smooth muscles. The oligosaccharides in kiwi also serve as a prebiotic to improve gut microflora. The insoluble fibre found in kiwifruit absorbs water and expands to help increase stool volume. Kiwi is also rich in polyphenols which can help to increase cell adhesion of beneficial probiotic and communal bacteria to the gut wall, while inhibiting the adhesion of pathogenic bacteria and limiting their ability to colonize.
Glucomannan is a water soluble dietary fibre that is derived from konjac root. Soluble fibre may prevent both diarrhea or constipation. it absorbs water from the gut and thus make stools soft, but not bulky. like many soluble fibre, glucomannan dissolves partially in water to form a mucilage or gel that can slow digestion giving a sense of fullness. this may be beneficial in weight loss and blood sugar balancing after meals. Soluble fibre has also been scientifically proven to lower cholesterol, which can help prevent heart disease. Glucomannan may reduce cholesterol levels by increasing the elimination of cholesterol and its components from the body.
Apple Pectin is a source of fruit pectin. fruit pectins are found in fruits such as apples, peaches, plums etc. and are considered a form of soluble dietary fibre. Apple pectin is gelatinous, meaning that it forms a gel or jelly-like consistency. Soluble fibres are able to help maintain a healthy digestive system, delay gastric emptying which can help maintain healthy glucose and bind cholesterol levels. in a recent animal study, apple pectin was shown to increase the amounts of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal system. researchers noticed that when animals were fed a diet high in apple pectin, greater numbers of butyrate-producing clostridiales bacteria were found in the animals' intestines. Butyrate is an important fuel for the cells of the intestines. in addition, there were decreases in the population of less beneficial species of Bacteroidetes bacteria.
Combination Rationale
CanPrev's fibre flow is a unique fibre product providing sources of soluble and insoluble fibre to help promote a healthy intestinal tract. fibre flow contains an innovative blend of pure, freeze-dried kiwifruit extract from New Zealand along with konjac root and apple pectin. freeze-drying the kiwifruit extract retains its natural enzymes. the natural dietary fibres in fibre flow function synergistically to help lubricate the intestines, encourage regular elimination and provide an optimal environment for the natural growth of "friendly" intestinal bacteria. fibre flow provides gentle relief of irregularity or constipation by encouraging regular intestinal rhythms and restoring natural bowel flow.
In addition, dietary fibres, particularly soluble fibre such as glucomannan and apple pectin, can slow the absorption of sugar, which supports healthy blood sugar levels when already within a normal range and help promote healthy cholesterol levels by binding to cholesterol in the intestinal tract and increasing its elimination from the body.
Adding fibre flow to your daily regime can be a powerful health promotion for your digestive and heart health!
