Feeding The Beneficial Bacteria
As we’ve repeatedly mentioned, only some types of fiber help to support the growth of the beneficial bacteria in our intestines, and this fact helps to explain why, despite effective marketing, certain types of fiber (i.e. some bran cereals), and intestinal “cleansers” and laxatives (both herbal and pharmacological) probably do relatively little to improve overall gastrointestinal health.
The synergy of protein and soluble fiber/resistant starch in supporting a healthy intestinal ecosystem is but one of countless examples in nutrition of the fact that nutrients never work in isolation from one another. Failure to grasp this concept has led to a great many dead ends in nutritional research where isolated nutrients continually fail to live up to their initial hype.
But, an integrated approach is the cornerstone of our philosophy at Integrated Supplements, and it’s just one of the reasons why we produce 100% Natural CFM® Whey Protein Isolate – the highest quality, undenatured whey protein available – along with Fiber Balance™, a smooth and delicious combination of 5 types of dietary fiber and resistant starch – all known to support the proliferation of healthy intestinal bacteria.
As research like that posted above continues to mount, our approach is consistently and repeatedly being validated. And as we continue to put the pieces of the nutritional puzzle together, we can confidently state that Integrated Supplements truly is Nutrition For Your Full Human Potential.
We’ll have more research soon – stay tuned.
