User Reviews for inulin

I use soda supplemented with inulin. The soda has low calories and the inulin makes me feel full and reduces the urge to snack.

I'm adding inulin from orafti to my diet and consume probiotics from life space, i didn't experience bloating or cramps that other people mention, i think you have to add probiotic if you consume inulin since inulin feed all good and bad bacteria, so if you only add inulin without probiotic that contain good bacteria it might cause bad bacteria also flourish in your gut

Not on inulin medication. Only using powder form as a sweetener. I have Crohn’s disease and IBD and had no idea why my horrible bowel condition had changed for the better. I’m hoping it is the inulin because this has been life changing for me.

my colestrol has lowered to the point where my doctor has lowered my statin from 20 mg to 10 mg whit the chance of coming off statins completely if my colestrol is still lower at my next check

Useless for treating insomnia.

It seemed to help but I was feeling quite hyper? I also had cramping and some rectal bleeding. I do have issues with other fiber products but with MS this issue with constipation is ongoing for me.

Started almost a month ago. I am now regular and little to no pain now. I started off slow, mixing this with fiber in milk, 2x a day, and reached full dosage after 2 weeks. I also take a probiotic, and perhaps that is why I don't get all the pain/gas others mention. I was a bit gassy for first two weeks, but it was mild. It has since stopped. I'm very regular now, 2 x a day. I will not stop taking this, but will also be taking it with the probiotic (probiotic pro-40) and organic acacia powder (fiber).Read More Read Less

From constipation to running a sub 10 second hundred metres to get to a toilet. I have a three second warning believe me and the result is a minor explosion and a total detox. Not sure if this is good or bad. At least no pain from constipation.

Severe cramping and bloating from the gas it has created. I have been in pain for an entire week. I stopped using the probiotic that contained the inulin 5 days ago. The negative side effects is lingering. I have a scheduled colonic tomorrow. I hope I get some relief.

I had a colon re-section and needed fiber to keep me regular. I hated the kind you drink so I started taking chewable inulin. I am almost back to being normal with this. Added benefits for the high cholesterol and weight loss.

Appears effective

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH DIARREA SO TRIED THIS FOR FIBRE AND MY STOOLS HAVE BEEN SOFT BUT NOT RUNNY TILL THIS MORNING WHEN I WENT 3 TIMES WITHIN 10 MINUTES WATERY STATE AT THE SECOND TIME,THIS PRODUCT SEEMS TO FILL ME WITH GAS,MAKING MY STOMACH TIGHT FEELING AND UNCOMFORTABLE.

Mixed in food as part of a commercial diet. Produced gas and frequent bowl movements only in first 1-2 weeks.

in the food I am eatting.

I found that all the orange juice in Costa Rica adds inulin to their product. I had juice several times followed by extreme cramping, diarrhea,headache and dizziness. At first I did not know what caused it. I changed my breakfast diet still drinking the OJ. the symptoms were always there. Now that I have stopped drinking OJ I have not had a problem. I imagine the amount used is relatively small so I am assuming my body just cannot tolerate inulin. It sure did make me awfully sick and incapacitated me for the whole day. Read More Read Less

I ate some gluten free waffles and felt burning in my esophagus and stomach like ginger causes. they contained inulin. I did not know what that was so came her to find out if it is related to ginger. I found inulin to be very unpleasant.

Research from Turkey shows giving probiotics with inulin to premature infants improved their health and reduced mortality. See Media get Today 9/16/13.

Pharmisist recomended Fiber Choice to help me control fecal incontinence. I had a colonoscopy because my bowel habits had changed. Got an excelent report. I am 82 and expect this is age related. So far, so good using inulin in this form.

I experienced a bit of gas so I take Clear & Natural before bedtime and am regular every morning and no gas during my work day. I don't get as bloated as with psyllium.

When I switched to a different stevia product which also contained inulin, I began to experience bloating, gas pain, back pain, and diarrhea. I've discontinued the use of the product.
