Evaluation of the Effect of Chicory Inulin-type Fructans in Constipated Adults

Constipation - Functional Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Cross-over Study to Evaluate the Effects of Chicory Inulin-type Fructans in Adults With Functional Constipation

Clinical Trial Summary

Constipation is common in the general population, especially in women and in the elderly, which can significantly affect quality of life of the individual. There is a general consumer trend to seek natural food options, also when addressing health issues such as constipation. Consumers seek tasty options and there is a paucity of tasty functional foods to address constipation. Adding natural fiber to food, like inulin-type fructans from chicory root fiber, can increase fiber intake and potentially prevent or resolve constipation issues. This study aimed to increase the body of scientific data on inulin-type fructans by way of a randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over study. Maltodextrin was used as the placebo in this study.
