Inulin is found in all plants of the star and bell family, where it is the main storage substance. Chicory and Jerusalem artichoke are the main sources of inulin. Because inulin is not broken down in the small intestine, the body cannot use it. In the intestine, it therefore acts as a soluble fibre. Its caloric value is very low. It is also sweet, so it can be used as a sugar substitute.
Fibre is still under-represented in our diet, but it is a very important component of food. It can increase its volume in the stomach and then passes through the digestive tract as a gel. It should be supplemented, for example, during weight-reduction diets. It can be found in cereals, corn, bran, vegetables, fruit skins and root vegetables.
