CHICOLINTM
WHAT IS CHICOLIN? Chicolin is a food substance derived from the whole tubers of the Chicory plant. Inulin, its major component (87% of the total powder weight), is a soluble fiber found in numerous roots in various amounts such as Dahlia Flower Tubers, Chicory Roots, Dandelion Roots, Burdock Roots, Jerusalem Artichokes, Asparagus and, Onions. Chicolin contains 87% Inulin (Oligosacchride) and 6% naturally occurring root sugars, giving it a mildly sweet, pleasant tasting cotton candy flavor. Chicolin is one of the richest natural sources of low molecular weight sugar, called Oligosaccharides or Oligo-fructose or Inulin. Inulin (the fiber name) is a soluble fiber, a low molecular weight sugar, indigestable to humans, which means it behaves like fiber. To humans, Inulin or Oligosaccharides are non-digestible plant sugars. They pass through the digestive system unchanged, slow the absorption of sugars, until they reach the large intestine. There they are selectively and intensively utilized by the bifidobacterium (the good bacteria) more so than any other type of bacteria. Humans do not produce the enzyme necessary to metabolize Chicolin, which is 87% carbohydrate. Because of this, Chicolin does not cause the same rapid increase in blood glucose levels that sugar or even fructose or ordinary carbohydrates do. With Chicolin, little change occurs in the blood glucose response during the first two hours after ingestion. The slower absorption and more prolonged release of the carbohydrates, both in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals, translates into lasting energy reserves for extended periods of up to 10 hours with constant blood glucose levels. This effect also has great promise for appetite suppression, weight control, and athletic performance.
HOW TO USE CHICOLIN Chicolin's affordable price make this great-tasting substance a healthy addition to your everyday recipes. The natural sweet taste of Chicolin can be enhanced with Stevia for use as a natural product of choice in food preparations and beverages. The combination of Stevia and Chicolin does not feed yeast or candida. Add 25g of Stevia to 250g of Chicolin. The Chicolin container has head space to add Stevia, close the lid and shake vigorously to blend the mixture evenly. The Stevia is diluted approximately ten times. The mixture is easy to psrinkle, mix in, or add to recipes. Does not require refrigeration. This mixture is still a concentrate. Use about 1 tsp of the mixture to replace 1 cup of sugar in your favorite recipes.
