Depending on the individual, the recommended intake for dietary fibre can vary. Different sources suggest varying amounts too. Most settle on the 25-38 grams range. However this is the lower limit on what you should be getting. Aiming for 30-40 grams a day is ideal for long term digestive health.
Why are there green bits in my pouch?
One of the key ingredients we include is Actazin® Kiwi Fruit powder because it contains natural enzymes that gently support digestion and regularity without the harsh "urgency" of synthetic laxatives. It’s a whole-food approach to gut comfort.
You'll notice it has a slightly softer, less soluble texture. Which might result it in mixing less, however it ensures you get the full digestive benefit of natural kiwis, at a fraction of the cost.
Why shouldn't I just take psyllium husk?
We love psyllium husk, but for many people it's a nightmare. Firstly, it tastes like ****. Secondly, most supermarket fibres are "single-source," meaning they just do one job (usually just bulking). Fibes Co. is a multi-source blend. We use 4 amazing ingredient, to hit every angle of your bowels and gut health: regularity and microbiome feeding.
How does it taste?
Short answer: Delicious. We hated the artificial, sugary traditional fibre drinks, so we fixed it. Fibes Co. is designed to be smooth, refreshing, and grit free. It’s flavoured naturally with raspberries and sweetened just right; perfect to drink on its own with water or added to your morning smoothie.
Founders note: I chuck some ice in it, stir well and down it.
I already take Protein. Do I need this?
Of course. In fact, you probably need this more. While protein builds muscle, fibre maintains your insides. High-protein diets can sometimes slow down digestion; Fibes Co. ensures everything keeps moving smoothly. It’s the perfect partner to your protein shake.
What's the difference between resistant starch and regular starch?
Regular starch is quickly digested in the small intestine and converted into glucose for energy. Resistant starch, however, "resists" digestion entirely, traveling to the large intestine where it acts as a prebiotic to fuel your beneficial gut bacteria. Essentially, while regular starch provides calories, resistant starch provides the essential fibre needed to support long term gut health and without a sugar spike.
