The Active Ingredient Is: Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum is a soluble fibre and natural polysaccharide produced by fermentation of sugars with Xanthomonas campestris.

This powder form is used as a thickening, stabilising and emulsifying agent in foods and can contribute a source of soluble fibre in the diet.

What Does Xanthan Gum Do?

Xanthan gum absorbs water in the gut, forming a viscous gel that can slow digestion and glucose absorption, potentially influencing post-meal glycaemic responses. It also increases stool bulk, supporting regular bowel movements in line with fibre functions recognised by EFSA.

Evidence from researchers including Dr. Navarro of a university network suggests these effects are observed with higher intake in clinical contexts.
