What is Chicory Extract Powder
The roots of the chicory plant (Cichorium intybus), which is well-known for its many uses and health advantages, are used to make chicory extract powder. Chicory roots contain inulin, a naturally occurring soluble fiber that is well known for its ability to support digestive health and improve overall wellbeing. In order to concentrate these advantageous compounds into a fine powder that can be utilized in goods like cosmetics, functional foods, and health supplements, extracts are typically processed. Chicory extract is commonly used in foods and beverages, especially those that support gut microbiota, weight management, and digestive health. Because of its ability to enhance gut health, it is also utilized in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries for its skin-nourishing qualities.
