Arabino SAP from Nutritional Fundamentals for Health Inc. provides high quality larch arabinogalactan dietary fiber, that is safe and effective for promoting gut motility and improving bowel function. Larch arabinogalactan is a dietary fiber that consists of galactose and arabinose side-chains in a 6:1 ratio. It is a long, densely-branched polysaccharide containing no starch, with a galactan backbone. Larch arabinogalactan has been recognized by global health authorities including USFDA for its diverse benefits on human health. In addition, larch arabinogalactan has been found to lower colonic pH, stimulating an environment favoring the development of beneficial bacteria, by increasing short-chain fatty acids including acetate, propionate, and most importantly, butyrate, which is a major fuel source for gastrointestinal mucosal cells and has anti-inflammatory effects. NFH’s Arabino SAP contains 4g of arabinogalactan from Larix laricina per scoop. Practitioner recommendation required. [POWDER]
Each level scoop contains:
ᴅ-Galacto-ʟ-arabinan (arabinogalactan from Larix laricina) 4g

Cautions & Warnings:
Consult a health-care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breast-feeding; if you are taking medication which inhibits peristaltic movement (e.g. opioids, loperamide); or if you have symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or fever (as these could be signs of abnormal constriction of the gastrointestinal tract, diseases of the oesophagus and/or the superior openings of the stomach [cardia], potential or existing intestinal blockage, paralysis of the intestine, megacolon, faecal impaction inflamed bowel or appendicitis). Do not use if you are experiencing a sudden change in bowel habits that have persisted for more than 2 weeks, undiagnosed rectal bleeding or failure to defaecate following the use of another laxative product; if you have
diabetes
mellitus in which blood sugar is difficult to regulate; or if you have difficulty swallowing. Consult a health-care practitioner immediately if you experience chest pain, vomiting, or difficulty in swallowing or breathing after taking this product. May cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort (bloating, gas). Larch arabinogalactan has USFDA generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status and is considered extremely safe, with minimal to no toxicity.
THE MECHANISM OF PREBIOTICS IN ENHANCING GUT FLORA
Prebiotics
are non-digestible fibre compounds that promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms (
probiotics
) in the intestines. More concretely, prebiotics are non-digestible carbohydrates that serve as food for specific bacteria, such as Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, essential to our gut health.
These probiotic bacteria help maintain the health and diversity of our gut microbiome - or the collective microorganisms that live in our gut. A healthy gut microbiome ensures the proper digestion of food, supports the body’s ability to absorb nutrients, promotes robust immune function, modulates inflammation, supports healthy cognitive function, and helps maintain youthful-looking hair, skin, and nails.
While their names are very similar, it’s important to note that prebiotics are different in every fundamental way from probiotics. Indeed, not only do prebiotics promote the growth and activity of our friendly bacteria, but they also produce Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs) via fermentation by our healthy gut bacteria. These SCFAs offer myriad benefits to health, including stimulating energy production, preventing the overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria in the gut, reducing inflammation in the colon, strengthening the intestinal barrier, and bolstering our immune function.
Source Your Prebiotic Fibre: Optimize Digestive Wellbeing
Some of the most common prebiotics include:
-
Inulin,
found in plants such as chicory root, Jerusalem
artichoke,
dandelion
greens, and garlic.
-
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS),
which are naturally present in fruits and vegetables, including bananas, onions, leeks, and asparagus.
-
Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS),
which are naturally present in legumes, such as lentils and chickpeas, as well as in human breast milk.
-
Resistant starch,
a type of starch that resists digestion in the small intestine and reaches the colon intact. It is present in foods like unripe bananas, cooked and cooled potatoes, and whole grains.
-
Beta-glucan,
found in oats and barley and is known for its cholesterol-lowering effects and immune-enhancing properties.
-
Pectin
is a fibre found in fruits, particularly in the peels and cores of apples, citrus fruits, and berries.
-
Psyllium husks,
derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant.
Exploring The Digestive Benefits of Prebiotic Supplements
Prebiotic fibres provide several health benefits by stimulating and supporting the growth and activity of probiotic bacteria in the gut. Here are some of the key benefits of prebiotics:
- Improve
Digestive Health
- Assist In Weight Management
- Enhance Immune Function
- Help Regulate Hormone Balance & Mood
- Improve Mineral Absorption
- Reduce The Risk of Chronic Diseases
Selecting Your Prebiotic Supplements: A Comprehensive Guide
Prebiotic supplements are available in various forms to cater to different preferences and needs. They come as powders that can be easily mixed with water, juice, or added to smoothies, shakes, or food, as well as in convenient pill form (capsules and tablets) that are easy to swallow with a little water, as well as in chewable gummies for those who do not like having to swallow pills. Prebiotic supplements can also be purchased in liquid form that can be consumed directly or mixed with beverages or foods and in convenient on-the-go prebiotic bars.
Embracing Prebiotics For Long-Term Gut Health
Prebiotics are safe for just about everyone, though it’s important to note that as fibre, increasing your intake too quickly can cause a few unpleasant side effects, including abdominal pain, gas, bloating and
diarrhea. The best way to avoid GI side effects is to increase your intake gradually and, in tandem, increase your water intake.
If you suffer from
Irritable Bowel
Syndrome (
IBS
), SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) or intolerance to FODMAP foods, prebiotics can trigger/aggravate symptoms of these conditions.
