Chicory root is rich in inulin, a natural prebiotic with scientifically proven health benefits. The inulin derived from chicory is an ingredient in many dietary supplements that aid in weight loss, as it stimulates digestion and reduces the nutritional value of foods. The most important benefit of inulin is promoting the growth of beneficial microbes in the gut. Through the roasting process, chicory acquires a flavor similar to coffee. For many years, chicory has been used as an alternative to coffee.
