There is a trace amount of inulin in garlic and bananas but not enough to be effective. PM me and I will give you the link to our hospital supply. It is not expensive. AT ALL. This particular purified inulin/fos comes from agave cactus. In Europe, most inulin comes from chicory root, but people have been known to be allergic to chicory.
There is something better, that has 10 years of affirmative research....Probiotics are the organisms that effect us favorably, but prebiotics are their favored food. Used together to positively influence human health, this is called synbiotics. A very useful prebiotic is inulin/fructo-oligosaccgarides, a fiber that we do not digest, but beneficial bifidobacteria LOOOOOVE, and they produce anti-inflammatory short chain fatty acids(sfca). These scfa will improve diarrhea, inflammatory bowel disorders and ulcerative colitis. Once you start using the inulin/fos powder, 1-1 1/2 tsps a day in soft food or liquids, and have eaten some Greek Yogurt which contains bifidobacteria you can expect improvement in 7 days and you can expect to be relieved of most if not all of your symptoms in 30 days. Long term use will maintain this improvement. Adverse effects are limited to flatulence, but that is at much higher doses. The scfa actually remodels the gut, improving absorption and immune function as well. I am a Registered Dietitian working clinically in a hospital setting. My hospital has the inulin/FOS powder in our formulary. Patients who have diarrhea from radiation therapy also benefit.
Below is a link to a meta-analysis of prebiotics use in inflammatory bowel disease. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ibd.20737/pdf
This is so bizarre and so WRONG. The town is a cesspool, and the livelihoods of industrious farmers and their homes are being sacrificed. How Hideous. I say let Cairo go down. Where are the interviews of the people being obliterated like this!!!!!
This article is loaded with BS at the beginning. Christianity is NOT responsible for the Holocaust, Hitler and the German people are. Many Christians died under the 3rd Reich, defending Jewish people.
I think St Paul had a pretty good idea in 2 Thessalonians 3:10: For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
