This is my new favorite way to get my supplemental fiber. The old way was Metamucil and other psyllium-husk products. Those sucked, both the taste and the texture. Another old-school product was oat fiber, which had similar problems. Meanwhile, inulin pretty much disappears into everything, leaving no taste, and no texture if you use a blender or just let it sit. It is somewhat tricky to mix by hand. I use a Blender Bottle shaker with a metal spiral ball. The inulin tends to settle into a feathery mass that sinks to the bottom, but after sitting there a while, it'll break up if you shake it again. I guess it mixes better when it's fully hydrated. It doesn't thicken the drink like psyllium does, at least not at the dosage I use - 10g in 16 oz liquid. Even with the mixing issues, it's by far the easiest fiber supplement powder I've found, both to use and to drink.Protip: before you first open the bag, flick the zipper tracks a few times from the outside, like you're flicking a marble, to eject any powder that's packed into the tracks, so that the bag can zip up fully. Repeat every time you pour the contents out, which allows powder to fall into the tracks again. You'll thank me when you shove it in the pantry and it doesn't leak powder all over.

I appreciate that this is pure agave inulin. I also like that it’s organic and non-GMO. It’s even certified kosher. Unlike some sugar alternatives, it does have calories, 10 per tablespoon. It came in a convenient resealable pouch, but the pouch was slightly sticky.Inulin is my favorite sweetener, so I’ve tried many different varieties over the years. Some are very sweet, while some have a more neutral flavor. This is the only one I’ve ever tried that was slightly bitter. I don’t know if that’s because it was made with agave instead of one of the other sources, but it was surprising. It also has some sweetness, which is nice. The texture and color are as expected. Because of the slight bitterness, this is best mixed into other things that can mask the bitterness, like Thai curry.

This organic inulin powder is clean and gentle on the digestive system. It mixes easily into tea or smoothies and provides a mild, pleasant sweetness. I appreciate that it comes certified organic, but the bag arrived sticky on the outside, which wasn’t ideal. Once cleaned, the product itself is high-quality.Pros:USDA organicGentle, easy-to-mix fiberNo additivesMild flavorCons:Bag arrived stickyValue Going Forward:Yes — a good organic inulin option.

This came well sealed, and I could tell right away it was good quality. When I opened it, the fiber had a slightly sweet, fresh smell to it. I put a little bit on a spoon to try it and it had that gooey, adhesive effect fiber gets when it first gets wet, but it quickly dissipated and was actually quite pleasant.I was drinking some sour sop tea, so I added a teaspoon of this to it and it dissolved quickly. I think it actually enhanced the flavor of the tea and made it taste less bitter. It’s not a sweetener of course — it’s fiber — but it blended in really nicely and didn’t have any grit. This is a simple, straightforward prebiotic fiber and it’s easy to use. It mixes well, doesn’t clump, and doesn’t overpower whatever you add it to.One thing I wanted to mention, because it surprised me at first, is that this fiber does have a very mild natural sweetness to it. It’s important to understand that this isn’t added sugar in the way something like stevia or monk fruit would be. This type of fiber (agave inulin) is made up of naturally occurring fructan chains, which can register as slightly sweet on the tongue but aren’t digested or absorbed like sugar. Because of that, it doesn’t spike blood sugar the way actual sugars do. It also tends to soften or round out sour or sharp flavors, which is probably why it blended so well into my sour sop tea and almost tasted lightly sweet without actually being a sweetener.Based on my experiences, value considerations, and how I rate, this earns:5 Stars – Impressive! Met or exceeded expectations in quality, value, and/or functionality. I am highly satisfied.and fully recommend.

So, let me explain in layman’s terms what agave inulin is—or inulin in general. This is inulin that comes from the agave plant.What is inulin? Inulin is a prebiotic fiber, which means it’s food for your gut microbes. Our guts are full of microbes, and inulin is food to keep them balanced, healthy, and diverse.This is not a sweetener. If you want to add it to baked goods, think of it as adding fiber to boost moisture, not a sugar booster or even replacement. It’s a fiber that just happens to taste slightly sweet. There’s a lot of confusion about this. If you tried to use it as a sweetener, it wouldn’t work—you’d be disappointed because it simply doesn’t have the sweetness level needed to replace sugar. I tried my first cup of this powder, and indeed, there’s almost no sweetness or even flavor. Powder on tongue, yes it’s on the sweeter side. But when in water, you cant taste it. On the bag, it clearly states it’s a prebiotic fiber, which I appreciate.In any case, this really challenges my understanding of fibers, but I’m happy to have it!

I love using agave. It’s sweet but not overly sweet. I’ve been using this inulin powder for about a week and I’ve mixed into my smoothies, protein powder or with water with other flavoring but haven’t tried for baking or cooking yet.Being a fiber I may not use for baking/cooking.My package was sticky on outside but rinsed with water and was no longer sticky.I like it’s a resealable pouch that does seal.So many don’t seal very well if at all so that’s a plus. I’m always worried about spilling ones that aren’t sealed.It’s very fine powder and mixes really well.I try and work prebiotics into my daily routine. So it’s been nice having something new to add or mix into my routine.

This is a nice source of prebiotic fiber. It is derived from organic agave, but don’t let that fool you, it isn’t a sweetener like agave. It is a powdered starchy type substance from the agave plant that will feed your gut. It’s important to have a diverse diet of prebiotic fibers, so I wouldn’t switch to using just this as my new source of fiber, but this is a good addition. It’s organic and is a good price per ounce. It mixes easily and has not caused me any digestive upset, though do note that sometimes adding in pre and probiotics can temporarily shift things so a single or couple digestive upsets aren’t always a bad thing when trying something new. I like this brand but I don’t like that the listing suggests this will add “sweetness and fiber without the sugar” to your recipes. That makes it seem like it’s a sweetener and it just isn’t. It’s fiber. You won’t taste it very much at all.

I can't speak for the health benefits since I ordered this inulin to improve the mouthfeel of low fat ice cream. Inulin improves the texture by reducing the formation of ice crystals as it freezes. It's very effective in making the ice cream smoother, is neutral in flavor, doesn't cause indigestion and easy to add to the other dry ingredients. I also like that is organic and since a little goes a long way in ice cream it's very economical too.No complaints.

Aloha.I got old, and after my colonoscopy showed a few polyps, my physician advised me to increase my fiber. I tried Metamucil and honestly, I did not like the fake sugar and artificial color. Then I found this Healthier Comforts Organic Inulin Powder.First off, this is real fiber (not a sweetener), organic blue agave, clean and simple. It’s super gentle on the stomach (no weird bloating or cramps), and it mixes effortlessly into my morning Juice, even when baking banana bread or muffins. No flavor, no weird aftertaste, just fiber. It’s like giving your gut some Aloha, and keeps things moving, supporting those good gut bacteria. I swear, I feel better and lighter, and my stomach doesn’t get weird like with the commercial orange fake flavor, and coloring.If you’re looking for a clean, organic way to boost your fiber, this is it. USDA certified, non GMO, vegan, and zero fake anything. Just don’t get crazy with the serving size....trust me, if you take too much, your body will remind you quick. Moderation is your friend here. A scoop in the juice or coffee, a little in the baking, and you’re set.Highly recommended if you want to keep things regular, without drinking something that looks gross.Mahalo!

I've been avoiding inulin in probiotic supplements due to a previously bad experience with gas, bloating, and general GI distress, but this agave version might be the one to change my mind.With a great deal of trepidation, I started slowly adding a small scoop to my coffee the first day. No issues to speak of...Second day, added 2 scoops. Still fine...Third day, 3 scoops, and I'm more confident in using this product. It has no taste in my coffee, but I won't be tasting it apart from coffee, because the sweetness others describe seems like it would break my fast.The bag is generous enough, and now that I've moved past my fear of GI upset, I have high expectations for improved digestion. I'm not looking for weight loss, at this point, but fat loss would be a bonus.I'll edit this review if I notice anything remarkable or worth updating.

I get that this is supposed to have health benefits but it is not sweet.

I thought I'd give this a shot over taking fiber pills. Its not bad. Dissolves decently in my morning coffee, doesn't effect the taste. Does make my coffee a little thicker, but not by much. I haven't noticed any difference in using this daily, over taking fiber pills daily. Its just a matter or preference. Mixes well, and is convenient.

I will reiterate what some others have stated - this is not a sweetener. It actually has little to no taste. Which I appreciate.It mixes well. I have mainly used it with some other powder supplements in a blender bottle. I have seen some improvements with digestion.This is a convenient and economical option for a prebiotic fiber.

Great. No taste.

I use it to make yogurt and for fiber in my smoothies. Dissolves easily and doesn’t seem to have any flavor. Works well

Good product no flavor

I take it for the fiber I works great

Not my favorite brand, but a good value nonetheless. It seems to be pretty good quality and dissolves easily bc of the small particles. I've been mixing a little into my yogurt parfaits. I don't want a big fiber boost, just trying to avoid any issues.For my use, it doesn't have a discernable taste and I didn't notice a sticky texture. This size bag will last me quite a while.
