Inulin, is a natural vegetable fiber, found in common foods like artichokes, asparagus, garlic and raisins. Inulin has many health promoting benefits—it is a prebiotic fiber, meaning that it is food for the “good” bacteria (bifidobacteria and lactobacilli) that live in your colon, and helps improve digestive health.

Thank you for the great question. Dr. Wong's Essentials™ Chicory Inulin is made from 100% Chicory. As chicory inulin has become more popular, the market has exploded over the last few years and created such a demand on the growers that they have had to incur extra costs and have therefore steadily increased their prices over the last 3 years or so.

As with the Maca Root Powder, there are no real limitations as to how you can take it. The Inulin is sweet and can be used as a sugar substitute which means you can mix it in with a beverage (coffee, tea, etc) and it should dissolve well. You can also put it on or under your tongue immediately followed by a beverage for swallowing. Hope this helps. Thank you for your question. No, it is not necessary to take time off while using the Libido Lift.
