Start with the ingredients
Inulin is a soluble fibre extracted from chicory. PHGG stands for partially hydrolysed guar gum, a different soluble fibre derived from guar. They are not interchangeable names, and combining them does not turn them into a new ingredient with automatically proven benefits.
Microbiome Powder contains 12 g inulin and 3 g PHGG per full daily intake. Inulin supplies most of its declared fibre; PHGG adds a second fibre type. The formula’s rationale is a mixed-fibre routine, not a demonstrated claim of synergy or gentler digestion.
Where regularity enters the story
The EU permits a bowel-function claim for 12 g per day of a specifically defined native chicory inulin. Both the quantity and the raw-material specification matter. The powder’s declared inulin quantity matches the amount, but its supplier specification still needs verification before applying that claim to the finished product.
Separate research on a fibre cannot establish that this blend causes less gas or bloating. Individual tolerance and the rest of the diet also matter; do not treat this ingredient explanation as a personal dosing recommendation.
Compare the two powders
Metabolic Powder has a different balance: 9 g inulin, 2 g PHGG and 3 g glucomannan daily. Its glucomannan-led pre-meal routine has specific water, portion and dietary conditions. It is not a stronger version of Microbiome Powder.
The declared fibres total 15 g in Microbiome Powder and 14 g in Metabolic Powder before other ingredients. These are not finished scoop weights. Exact powder portions and preparation instructions must be confirmed before use.
