Your multi-functional digestive health solution
Solnul™ is raising the bar for prebiotic and resistant starch categories with ground-breaking clinical and scientific research. Whether you’re reformulating or extending your product line, it’s the most essential tool to have in your natural health product.
Our Purpose
Over 10,000 years ago, ancestral diets were raw and rich in unripe fruits and vegetables, containing 30-50 g of resistant starch per day. Over time, modern food manufacturing methods like milling and cooking have stripped resistant starch from our diets.
Today, we’re in a nutrient-deficient state of crisis.
The average American gets only 4 g or 20% of the Suggested Dietary Target (SDT) of resistant starch from diet alone.
Resistant starch refers to all starches that remain “resistant” to digestive enzymes when they reach the large intestine. Resistant Starch Type 2 (RS2) is a native granule from an unmodified food source found in certain fruits, vegetables, and grains. It is a unique type of prebiotic dietary fiber that has been well-research for its effects on healthy digestion, IBS symptoms and proper immune system function.1

Our purpose is to close the resistant starch gap to restore human health.
Australian researchers at CSIRO have circled low resistant starch consumption as the crucial factor contributing to many of the diseases afflicting the Western world that have typically been associated with low fiber intake, even though fiber targets are met.
Dietary preferences and modern food processing methods have eliminated the vast majority of resistant starch from our diet. You would have to consume over 10,000 kcal/day to achieve the SDT from modern foods, making dietary supplementation and fortification of foods with resistant starch absolutely necessary.
