The Fiber blend also gently lubricates and enriches the gut with nourishing herbs. Contains soluble as well as insoluble fibres. Stone ground not hammer-milled which lowers allergy.

Cleansing of the G-I tract is an absolute necessity for optimal health and optimal defense of the body. This is because the humoral immunity of the human body is mediated through the Peyer’s patches of the G-I tract. Secondly, prolonged presence of organic matters under anaerobic conditions yields plenty of organic acids which can contribute to the leaky gut syndrome. To effectively cleanse the gut, different types of fibers must interact on hydration to form an intricate lattice network, which removes debris from gut wall. The different types of fibers are

INSOLUBLE FIBRES include:

	Oat Bran:	Flushes the colon and helps lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the circulatory system.
	Apple Pectin:	Promotes the cohesion of the stool. Pectin is also known to pick up heavy metals such as lead and mercury as it goes through the GI tract and hastens its elimination.
	Psyllium seed:	Flushes the entire GI tract gently and promotes GI tract motility during elimination.

SOLUBLE FIBRES include:

	Psyllium husk:	Flushes the colon and is a major absorbant for cellular toxins along the entire GI tract.
	Glucomanan:	Softens up the stool and promotes its elimination through the colon. This fiber is very low in calories and works with lecithin to promote the breakdown of cholesterol.

To ensure gentleness, nourishing and mucilagenous herbs are added. These herbs include:

	Alfalfa	A very nourishing herb, full of minerals, vitamins and various cofactors. In oriental medicine, alfalfa is often used to treat peptic ulcers, urinary and other bowel conditions. Liquid extract of alfalfa is anti-bacterial in the gut.
	Clove	An aromatic herb. In addition to promoting good digestion, clove prevents flatulence (helps prevent the formation of carbon dioxide, a precursor of organic acids). Clove also helps prevent diarrhea.
	Hibiscus	An ascorbic rich herb which possesses strong anti-oxidant properties. This minimizes any radical damage to the gut lining by toxins in the GI tract.
	Yellow dock	Used traditionally in a decoction for constipation. Its presence is anti-fungal and anti-microbial in the gut. Its action is to help prevent the formation of organic acids and the promotion of gut motility.
