TruFiber – Advanced Paleo-Compatible Fiber & Digestive Support System
After working with patients following ancestral diets who struggled to get adequate fiber without compromising their dietary principles, we developed TruFiber as a comprehensive approach that bridges the gap between modern nutritional needs and Paleolithic food choices. This formula recognizes that while our ancestors consumed abundant fiber from wild plants, fruits, and vegetables, modern food systems make it challenging to achieve optimal fiber intake without relying on grains and legumes that many people prefer to avoid.
The difference? Most fiber supplements rely heavily on grains like wheat bran, oat fiber, and rice bran, or legume-derived fibers from peas, beans, and soy – ingredients that weren't part of ancestral diets and can cause digestive issues for sensitive individuals. We realized that effective fiber supplementation should mirror the diverse fiber sources our ancestors consumed while providing the comprehensive benefits needed for modern digestive health.
This advanced fiber system combines 12 different natural fiber sources from fruits, vegetables, roots, seeds, and tree extracts, plus beneficial probiotics to create comprehensive digestive support that's compatible with Paleo, ancestral, and elimination diet approaches. Each serving provides both soluble and insoluble fibers working synergistically to support optimal digestive function.
Why We Created This Ancestral-Compatible Fiber Formula
Our research into ancestral nutrition revealed that hunter-gatherer populations consumed 50-100 grams of fiber daily from diverse plant sources, compared to the average American intake of only 15 grams daily. However, modern fiber supplements typically rely on agricultural grains and legumes that contain anti-nutrients like phytates, lectins, and other compounds that can interfere with mineral absorption and cause digestive sensitivities.
The breakthrough came when we understood that effective fiber supplementation requires recreating the diversity our ancestors consumed – soluble fibers that regulate digestion and support beneficial bacteria, insoluble fibers that add bulk and support elimination, and prebiotic compounds that nourish the microbiome. By sourcing these fibers from fruits, vegetables, and other ancestral food sources, we could provide comprehensive benefits without the problematic compounds found in grain and legume fibers.
We chose to include both traditional fiber sources like apple pectin and psyllium husk alongside more specialized fibers like acacia gum and glucomannan to create a matrix that supports every aspect of digestive health while remaining compatible with the most restrictive dietary approaches.
Our Multi-Source Fiber Strategy
Here's what makes TruFiber different from grain and legume-based fiber supplements:
Phase 1: Ancestral Compatibility – All fibers sourced from fruits, vegetables, roots, seeds, and tree extracts that align with Paleolithic food choices
Phase 2: Dual-Action Fiber Support – Combines soluble fibers for digestive regulation with insoluble fibers for bulk and elimination support
Phase 3: Prebiotic Microbiome Enhancement – Includes acacia gum and inulin to support beneficial bacterial growth
Phase 4: Probiotic Synergy – Added beneficial bacteria work with prebiotic fibers to optimize digestive ecosystem health
This comprehensive approach ensures complete digestive fiber support while maintaining compatibility with ancestral and elimination diet principles.
The Science Behind Our Approach
Dietary fiber serves multiple critical functions in digestive health, but different types of fiber work through different mechanisms. Soluble fibers dissolve in water to form gel-like substances that slow digestion, regulate blood sugar, support satiety, and provide fuel for beneficial gut bacteria. Insoluble fibers add bulk to stool, support regular elimination, and help maintain healthy transit time through the digestive system.
The modern diet's reliance on processed foods has created a significant fiber gap that most people try to fill with grain-based supplements. However, these often contain anti-nutrients like phytic acid that can bind minerals and interfere with absorption, plus lectins and other compounds that may cause digestive irritation in sensitive individuals.
By sourcing fibers from ancestral food sources like fruits (apple pectin, citrus fiber), vegetables (carrot fiber), seeds (flax, cranberry seed), and tree extracts (acacia gum), we can provide comprehensive fiber benefits without these problematic compounds. The addition of probiotics creates synergistic support for the beneficial bacteria that use these fibers as fuel.
Ingredient Information
Acacia Gum (Fibregum) A prebiotic fiber from the acacia tree that supports beneficial bacterial growth while being gentle on sensitive digestive systems. This soluble fiber ferments slowly, providing sustained prebiotic benefits without causing gas or bloating that can occur with other prebiotic fibers.
Cellulose (Creafibe) A pure insoluble fiber that adds bulk to support healthy elimination and regular bowel movements. This fiber from plant cell walls provides the structural benefits of insoluble fiber without any anti-nutrients or allergens.
Guar Gum A soluble fiber from guar beans that helps regulate digestion and supports healthy blood sugar levels. Despite being from a legume source, guar gum is the pure fiber extract without the problematic proteins and anti-nutrients found in whole legumes.
Cranberry Seed Powder Provides both soluble and insoluble fiber along with beneficial plant compounds from this antioxidant-rich fruit. Cranberry fiber supports urinary tract health while contributing to overall fiber intake.
Carrot Fiber A gentle vegetable-sourced fiber that adds bulk while providing beta-carotene and other beneficial plant compounds. This insoluble fiber is well-tolerated and adds natural sweetness to the blend.
Inulin A prebiotic fiber from chicory root that specifically feeds beneficial Bifidobacteria in the colon. This soluble fiber supports immune function through its effects on gut bacteria while helping regulate digestion.
Citrus Fiber Derived from orange peels, this fiber provides both soluble and insoluble components along with beneficial citrus flavonoids. It supports healthy cholesterol levels and adds natural citrus flavor.
Apple Pectin A highly beneficial soluble fiber that supports healthy cholesterol levels, blood sugar regulation, and provides fuel for beneficial gut bacteria. Pectin also supports detoxification by binding certain toxins for elimination.
Glucomannan A highly soluble fiber from the konjac root that expands significantly in water, supporting satiety and healthy weight management. This fiber also supports healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
Psyllium Husk One of the most effective fibers for supporting regular elimination and healthy cholesterol levels. This soluble fiber forms a beneficial gel that supports digestive regularity and comfort.
Flax Provides both soluble and insoluble fiber along with beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. Flax fiber supports hormonal balance and cardiovascular health while contributing to overall fiber intake.
Prune A natural source of both fiber types that specifically supports healthy elimination. Prune fiber provides gentle laxative effects along with beneficial plant compounds.
Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium longum Beneficial probiotic bacteria that work synergistically with the prebiotic fibers to support optimal digestive ecosystem health and immune function.
