Konjac fiber's active component is glucomannan, a soluble

particularly well for constipation. Additionally, this ingredi-

Acacia Fiber
Used by the ancient Egyptians to treat numerous ailments,
acacia fiber is still used today as a first-class source of soluble
fiber and has a high digestive tolerance in humans. It is also
believed to have some prebiotic qualities. Paired with the
probiotic Bifidobacterium, it may relieve some symptoms of
irritable bowel syndrome (

In several scientific investigations, artichoke leaf extract
has shown promise for people who wrestle with indigestion.
As bitter herbs, these extracts may be able to help replenish
stomach acid and encourage digestive enzyme production
when stomach acid is low. Additionally, these herbs may also be beneficial for liver and gallbladder health.
