Inulin Knowledge Brief: The inulin available on the market is primarily sourced from imported chicory root and domestically produced jerusalem artichoke. We highly recommend inulin derived from our Kingherbs domestic jerusalem artichoke source. This is because the chicory-derived inulin market is dominated by the three major European producers: Beneo, Sensus, and Cosucra, which collectively hold a 90-95% market share.
Why choose Kingherbs Jerusalem artichoke-derived inulin
1.Chain Length Profile & Digestibility: Jerusalem artichoke-derived inulin contains approximately two-thirds short-chain molecules (DP<20), compared to only about one-third in chicory-derived inulin. Short-chain inulin is more readily digestible and absorbable.
2.Superior Solubility: Jerusalem artichoke-derived inulin exhibits significantly better water solubility than its chicory-derived counterpart, achieving full solubility in cold water. This superior solubility makes jerusalem artichoke inulin ideal for applications like infant formula and beverages. In contrast, chicory-derived inulin is typically used in baked goods, further demonstrating the superior solubility of our jerusalem artichoke source.
3.Enhanced Taste, Sweetness & Natural Prebiotic Benefits: Jerusalem artichoke-derived inulin offers a more pleasant taste profile and inherent sweetness compared to chicory-derived inulin, while delivering equivalent prebiotic effects as a natural prebiotic source. Chicory-derived inulin requires debittering processing due to its inherently poor taste. Our jerusalem artichoke-derived inulin, however, is naturally sweet-tasting and requires no such debittering treatment.
