The Science of Fiber

THE SCIENCE OF CORE FIBER

FIBER ISN'T ONE THING.

Different fibers do different jobs. Core Fiber uses five whole food fibers in one daily blend to support digestion and give your microbiome a broader range of fuel.

NATURE MADE FIBER TO DO MORE.

Fiber is famous for regularity. But higher-fiber diets are connected with digestive, metabolic, heart, and whole-body health. Different fibers help in different ways.

Supports regularity and digestive comfort

Different fibers contribute to digestion in different ways. Some add bulk, some form a gel, and others feed gut bacteria that help keep the digestive system in balance.

SUPPORTING RESEARCH

Fiber supplementation for chronic constipation

A meta-analysis of randomized trials found that fiber supplementation improved stool frequency and consistency in adults with chronic constipation. van der Schoot et al., American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2022 (Source)

A DIVERSE MICROBIOME NEEDS DIVERSE FUEL.

Your gut is home to trillions of microbes, and different microbes are equipped to use different types of fiber. A blend of fiber sources gives that complex ecosystem more than one kind of fuel.

Different fibers are used in different ways, in different parts of the gut.

Fermentation is how gut bacteria break down certain fibers and turn them into compounds the body can use.

FIBER WORKS BEST AS A HABIT.

The many benefits associated with fiber come from making it a regular part of how you eat. Start gradually, stay consistent, and give your body time to adapt.

01

TODAY

Start gradually.

Adding fiber can change your digestive experience, so start gradually and drink plenty of water.

02

AS THE HABIT BUILDS

Create a steady rhythm.

A repeatable routine can support regularity and give gut microbes a consistent source of fuel.

03

OVER THE LONG TERM

Let the pattern add up.

Higher-fiber dietary patterns are associated with broad long-term health benefits and lower all-cause mortality.

4 TYPES OF FIBER. 5 WHOLE FOOD SOURCES.

Four main fiber types describe what fiber does in the body. Core Fiber uses five ingredients to cover those roles more broadly. Some ingredients contribute to more than one type.

01

Insoluble fiber

Supports regularity

Adds bulk to help food and waste move through your digestive tract.

02

Viscous soluble fiber

Supports heart + metabolic health

Forms a gel in the gut, helping support healthy cholesterol and blood sugar responses.

03

Fermentable soluble fiber

Feeds beneficial gut bacteria

Gives gut bacteria fuel they can turn into compounds that support gut health.

04

Resistant starch

Helps create beneficial gut compounds

Resists digestion so gut bacteria can ferment it and produce short-chain fatty acids.

FIVE INGREDIENTS. EACH HERE FOR A REASON.

No single ingredient represents everything fiber can do. Each source in Core Fiber brings a different behavior to the blend.
