Hepatica Sunwic is a dietary supplement that contains 80% soluble fiber from guar beans. In 2.5 g of the product we will find as much as 2 g of fiber. In its simple composition, it contains only partially hydrolyzed guar gum, without unnecessary additives.

Guar bean, or Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, is a legume native to India and Pakistan. It is cultivated mainly for the seeds from which guar gum is made. The seeds of this exotic bean are rich in a polysaccharide consisting of galactose and mannose molecules, which is the main ingredient used in the production of the popular guar gum. The seeds are shelled, ground and sieved to separate the endosperm from the seed coat. The endosperm is then ground into a fine powder, which is guar gum used in many industries, including in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

Guar gum is considered a dietary fiber due to its high content of soluble fiber fraction. It is not digested or absorbed in the small intestine, but instead passes to the large intestine where it can provide benefits. The partially hydrolyzed guar bean fiber is metabolized by the intestinal microbiota to short-chain fatty acids, which are important nutrients for intestinal cells.

Benefits of consuming the right amount of fiber:
- leaves a feeling of satiety and suppresses excessive appetite,
- helpful in constipation, flatulence, problems with defecation,
- slows down the absorption of fats,
- helps control blood sugar and cholesterol levels.

To sum up, Hepatica Sunwic is a product that is a concentrated source of soluble fiber in the form of guar gum. Recommended for people who want to supplement their diet with an additional source of fiber and take care of intestinal health.
