For a long time, the keto community focused almost entirely on “macros” such as fats, proteins, and net carbs. However, as the science of wellness has evolved, we have come to realise that what you leave out of your diet is just as important as what you put in. One of the ultimate goals on a low-carb journey is maintaining a healthy digestive system.

At nuwe solutions, we believe that a healthy gut is the foundation of a healthy life. That is why we have developed specialised products like our Finally. FOS Prebiotic Fibre and Finally. STEFOS Sweetener to bridge the gap between keto success and digestive wellness.

What are Prebiotic Fibres?

To understand why these products are essential, we must first distinguish between probiotics and prebiotics. While probiotics are the “friendly” bacteria in your gut, prebiotics are the specialised plant fibres that act as food for those bacteria. Without adequate prebiotics, your gut microbiome can become imbalanced, leading to bloating, sluggishness, and poor nutrient absorption.

The Keto “Fibre Gap”

When you significantly reduce your intake of grains, starchy vegetables, and certain fruits, you inadvertently remove many of the natural sources of prebiotic fibre. This “fibre gap” can lead to a shift in your gut bacteria that may impact your energy levels and long-term health.

Our Finally. range is designed to solve this problem without adding unwanted carbs or spiking your blood sugar levels.

FOS Prebiotic Fibre

Our Finally. FOS (Fructo-oligosaccharides) is a game-changer for anyone looking to fortify their digestive health. FOS is a carbohydrate that the human body cannot fully digest.

“Hang on!” you say… “FOS is a carb?!” On a Keto or low-carb diet we don’t want carbs right?

That’s true, but when carbs can’t be digested – then that’s the very definition of a fibre 😊 So instead of FOS being digested, it travels to the lower intestine where it serves as a high-quality fuel source for your natural probiotics.

The journey starts with either chicory roots or Jerusalem artichokes, used to extract inulin. The inulin chains are broken down into shorter Fructo-oligosaccharides – and it’s thanks to the shorter chains that we get a sweeter product that is indeed still a fibre!

Our FOS provides:

• Beautiful Flavour: It is a subtly sweet powder, only a third of the sweetness of sugar and tasting slightly like candy floss! Kids and adults alike can enjoy it right off the spoon. It also dissolves perfectly into coffee, tea, or smoothies and can easily be used in baking to increase the fibre content and also to contribute texture and stability in lower fat and lower sugar recipes.
• Gut Support: Regular intake helps to promote regularity and a balanced microbiome.
• Keto Friendly: Because it is a non-digestible fibre, it has a negligible impact on blood glucose levels.
  
  🤔Did you know? FOS can be used to feed yeast and yogurt cultures.

STEFOS Prebiotic Fibre

If you want to enjoy a sweet treat while simultaneously supporting your gut, Finally. STEFOS is the ultimate dual-purpose solution. By blending high-purity Stevia with FOS Prebiotic Fibre, we have created a sweetener that does more than just replace sugar.

• The Perfect Blend: The FOS fibre helps to dilute the bitter aftertaste often associated with Stevia, resulting in a clean, sugar-like sweetness.
• Baking Performance: Unlike many sweeteners that lack “bulk,” as would be the case if you used stevia drops for instance, the fibre content in STEFOS helps to provide some bulk in keto-friendly cakes and biscuits. You wouldn’t need a lot of it since our blend is in fact TWICE as sweet as sugar!
• Double Benefit: You get to satisfy your sweet tooth while giving your gut bacteria the nourishment they need to thrive.
