Why does my Fiber become thick and gel-like?Updated 2 months ago
This is actually a very important role in fiber! As soluble fiber dissolves, it creates a gel that can improve digestion in several ways.
Fiber GDX includes both soluble and insoluble fiber, each of which provides different benefits. When soluble fiber comes in contact with water it turns into a gel-like substance that may help slow down carbohydrate digestion. This process may also increase satiety and support blood sugar levels. Insoluble fiber also aids in moving food through the digestive tract, creating a laxative effect.
Additionally, fiber is a prebiotic, which means it nourishes the health-promoting microbes in your digestive tract.
