As a self-confessed poor sleeper, Dr Mosley said: \"I would wake tired and irritable and began to dread going to sleep... I was convinced this disrupted sleep was rotting my brain and ageing my body.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"zp ts-regular-1 tsl-6\"\u003eAfter a 5-day experiment with prebiotic fibre for the BBC, Dr Mosley was so impressed by the improvements that he rated its effectiveness for enhancing his sleep 9 out of 10. \"Our insomniac tester could not wait to give it a go. Just a teaspoon daily in water 90 minutes before hitting the hay worked wonders and resulted in a truly restful night\" - The Independent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 class=\"zp ts-regular-1 tsl-16\"\u003eWhat is Inulin?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp class=\"zp ts-regular-2 tsl-2\"\u003eOrganic Inulin is a type of soluble\u003cspan class=\"zp tsl-3\"\u003edietary fibre, that our body doesn't digest.\u003c\/span\u003eInstead, inulin reaches our gut (large intestine) where it acts as a prebiotic: It's fermented by good gut bacteria which feed from it and increase as a result. Good bacteria helps us to absorb more nutrients from the foods we digest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat does it taste like?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"zpa-faq__answers-content zpa-faq__content\" data-faq-content=\"\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"zpa-word-wrap disable-internal-link zpa-faq__text-wrapper zpa-accordion__text-wrapper--second zp ba-45081103\" data-id=\"45081103\" data-answer-wrapper=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"zp ts-regular-2 tsl-2\"\u003eInulin has a mild sweet taste. Even though inulin is a type of fibre, it's unique is because it contains fructan. Fructan is a compound made from fructose, a kind of sugar. When you eat inulin, your body doesn't digest or absorb it. However, the sweet taste receptors on your tongue can sense the fructose, making it taste sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"zp ts-regular-2 tsl-10\"\u003eBut don't confuse it with sugar! Inulin isn't as sweet and its sweetness varies. The best part? Even though inulin tastes sweet due to its fructose content, it doesn't raise blood sugar levels because it isn't digested or absorbed by your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"zp ts-regular-2 tsl-10\"\u003eAre there any side effects from taking Inulin?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"zpa-faq__answers-content zpa-faq__content\" data-faq-content=\"\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"zpa-word-wrap disable-internal-link zpa-faq__text-wrapper zpa-accordion__text-wrapper--second zp ba-68326662\" data-id=\"68326662\" data-answer-wrapper=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"zp ts-regular-1 tsl-2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"zp tsl-3\"\u003eInulin is generally well-tolerated, but some people may experience mild digestive side effects, such as bloating, gas, and abdominal discomfort.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"zp tsl-8\"\u003eThese side effects are typically more common when first introducing inulin to the diet and usually decrease over time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"zp tsl-13\"\u003eDrinking more water during day can help with any bloating or gas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"zp ts-regular-1 tsl-12\"\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's 100% pure organic inulin fibre, which is derived from organic agave.

Start with 1\/4 tsp for 4 days, and increasing by 1\/4 tsp every 4 days until you're taking 1tsp. This gives your digestive system time to get used to the extra soluble fibre.
