Soluble fibre is an ideal prebiotic
Soluble fibre dissolves in water and is fermented in your digestive system, which makes it a prebiotic: food for the good bacteria in your gut. Feeding those bacteria helps keep your gut microbiome in balance. Barley beta-glucan, the fibre in NutraStat, has been linked with a range of prebiotic benefits.
Two ways it works
Fermentation. In the large intestine, beneficial bacteria ferment barley beta-glucan and produce short-chain fatty acids, which fuel the cells that line your colon.
Viscosity. Barley beta-glucan forms a gel that slows digestion and the release of sugar into your bloodstream, which also helps you feel full.

The gut-brain connection
Your gut and brain are in constant contact through what researchers call the gut-brain axis. A balanced microbiome is linked with better digestion, comfort and overall well-being.
Feeds good bacteria
Barley beta-glucan reaches the large intestine, where it becomes food for beneficial bacteria.
Balances your microbiome
A well-fed microbiome is a more balanced one.
Supports digestion
Short-chain fatty acids fuel the cells of your colon and support a healthy gut lining.
Supports regularity
A healthy gut and enough fibre help keep you regular.
Comfortable, regular digestion
NutraStat gives you both soluble and insoluble fibre. Soluble fibre feeds your good bacteria and softens things, and insoluble fibre adds bulk, which together support regular, comfortable digestion.
If you have IBS or another digestive condition, check with your doctor first, then start with a small amount and build up slowly.
