Choosing the right format
This is a powder, best if you want to mix fibre into drinks or food and adjust your own dose. If you would rather take a fixed amount in capsule form, or you specifically want chicory-source inulin, compare the options on our inulin collection. For background on what inulin is, how it works as a prebiotic fibre and typical intake, see our guide to inulin.

Frequently asked questions
What is NOW Foods Organic Inulin powder?
It is a pure, unflavoured organic inulin powder from NOW Foods. Inulin is a soluble fibre of the fructooligosaccharide (FOS) type. Each level teaspoon (approx. 2.8 g) provides 2.8 g of organic inulin. It is sold in 227 g (8 oz) and 454 g (1 lb) sizes and contains no other ingredients.
Is this inulin from chicory root or blue agave?
This NOW Foods inulin is sourced from organic blue agave (Agave tequilana), not chicory root. Both are natural inulin-type fructans. Many other inulin powders on the market use chicory; if you specifically need chicory-source inulin, check the source before buying.
How much inulin is in each serving?
One level teaspoon is approximately 2.8 g and provides 2.8 g of organic inulin (FOS), including 2.5 g of dietary fibre. A 227 g pack contains about 81 servings.
Is inulin powder legal to buy in Ireland?
Yes. Inulin is a natural dietary fibre and is sold freely as a food supplement and food ingredient in Ireland and across the EU. It is not a controlled or restricted substance.
Is it suitable for vegans and coeliacs?
It is a vegan powder with no animal-derived ingredients and no capsule shell. It is not manufactured with gluten-containing ingredients, though it is produced in a facility that also handles allergens including wheat. It is also Non-GMO Project Verified and certified organic.
How do I take inulin powder?
Mix 1 level teaspoon (approx. 2.8 g) into water, juice, a smoothie, yoghurt or food, 1 to 3 times daily. Begin with 1 teaspoon a day and increase slowly to limit digestive discomfort. Taking it with plenty of fluid can improve tolerance.
Can inulin cause bloating or gas?
Inulin is a fermentable fibre and can cause mild, temporary wind or bloating, especially if intake increases quickly. Starting at a low dose and building up gradually reduces this. People sensitive to FODMAPs may react more strongly. For adults only.

Where does it ship from and are there customs charges?
