AIM Herbal Fiberblend provides the fiber that is often lacking in our diets and it contains cleansing herbs. This unique combination provides the perfect way to maintain your digestive health, keep your digestive system clean, and experience other benefits that are indicative of whole body health.

Digestive issues comprise the number one health problem in North America. And our bodies are becoming increasingly polluted with toxins found in the environment and in the foods we eat.

Getting adequate fiber and cleansing, (aka detoxifying) are two often overlooked elements of maintaining not only digestive health but also whole body health.

Fibre

Fibre has long been recognised as one of the best food ingredients for maintaining bowel regularity and preventing constipation. Because it normalises bowel movements, it can also be used to treat and manage chronic diarrhea. Consuming fibre reduces transit time and results in a more thorough evacuation of waste materials. It is thought to improve all aspects of colon function.

Fibre is found only in fruits and plants. It is an indigestible complex carbohydrate and, therefore, adds few, if any, calories to the diet. There are two main types of fibre—water-soluble and insoluble.
Both types of fibre are required in the daily diet, in the recommended ratio of 3:1 insoluble fibre to water-soluble fibre.

Water-soluble fibre

Water-soluble fibre dissolves in water and is found in oat bran, legumes, psyllium, nuts, beans, pectins, and various fruits and vegetables. It forms a bulky gel in the intestine that regulates the flow of waste materials through the digestive tract.

Water-soluble fibre may lower cholesterol by preventing the reabsorption of bile acids. Bile acids are made from cholesterol, and after they aid fat digestion, fibre binds with them and escorts them out of the body. The liver then has to pull more cholesterol from the blood.

Water-soluble fibre may also stabilise blood sugar by slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates into the blood. Plus, it can lower blood sugar levels. Researchers have found that increasing fibre intake results in a decrease in the body’s need for insulin.

Psyllium supplementation, in particular, has been shown to improve blood sugar levels in diabetics

Insoluble fibre

Insoluble fibre cannot be dissolved in water, meaning that our bodies cannot digest it. This type of fibre includes the undissolvable parts of plant walls and is found in greatest amounts in cereals, brans, and vegetables. The primary function of insoluble fibre is to collect water that increases stool bulk in the large intestine. This promotes bowel movements, and as the bulk works through the intestine, it scours the intestinal walls of waste matter, reducing the risk of colon-related problems.

Fibre in the diet

In 2001, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine established an Adequate Intake (AI) recommendation for total daily fibre intake. For adults who are 50 years of age and younger, the AI recommendation for total fibre intake is 38 g/day for men and 25 g/day for women. For adults over 50 years of age, the recommendation is 30 g/day for men and 21 g/day for women.

Studies have found that in populations with high-fibre diets, the incidences of colon cancer, appendicitis, and diverticulosis are very low. Industrialised countries, which largely have diets high in fat and low in fibre, have high incidences of these diseases.

Because fibre is low in calories, it can be added to your diet, providing a greater feeling of satiety without significantly increasing your caloric intake. The fibre found in fruits and plants serves as a source of complex carbohydrate, which most nutritionists consider to be a healthy choice. In addition, fibre’s ability to stabilise blood sugar may also curb the desire to snack. In other words, you may find yourself
eating less. This is beneficial in weight-loss programs.

Cleansing, detox, and herbs

The concept of body cleansing has been with us for centuries. Today, many health practitioners recognise the importance of keeping the body in harmony to prevent sickness; it is often referred to as cleansing or detoxification. Many health practitioners believe that as our world becomes increasingly polluted with toxins found in the environment and in the foods we eat, cleansing becomes more important.

Why cleanse?

Toxins undermine our health. A body overloaded with toxins can result in a number of symptoms. These include constipation, stomach bloat, poor digestion, gas, fatigue, weight gain, excessive mucus, poor concentration, headaches, poor skin, poor memory, depression, body odour, and bad breath.

Some health practitioners relate toxins to specific diseases. They believe that chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivity, and fibromyalgia (muscle and joint pain) may be related to toxin exposure.

Cleansing

The body does have a system in place for detoxifying harmful toxins. The most important cleansing organ is the liver. Eliminative  channels include the bowels (the digestive system), kidneys, skin, lungs, and lymphatic system.

When the body is not overburdened with toxins and is performing well, blood carries toxins to the liver, which uses enzymes to detoxify harmful substances. They are rendered harmless or converted into a water-soluble form that is eliminated via the urine or faeces.

Unfortunately, this system can handle only so many toxins and was designed for “natural” toxins, not the man-made ones we have to deal with today. For example, protection against alcohol is built into our genes. One gene codes an enzyme to convert alcohol into substances that the body can use or excrete.

Our body does not, however, always know how to handle the new toxins in our lives. It cannot understand how to excrete them, and they may accumulate to harmful quantities or be converted to odd, unknown substances that can interfere with metabolism.

Today, there are different ways to cleanse the body. Among these are baths and hydrotherapy, diet and nutrition, herbs, chelation, and exercise. Herbal supplementation, often in conjunction with other methods, has been used for ages and is one of the most popular ways to cleanse. Herbs are said to promote cleansing by eliminating toxins from the organs and systems of the body.

Fibre has also been shown to reduce cholesterol and maintain blood sugar levels.

Will the fibre in AIM Herbal Fiberblend result in mineral deficiencies or remove “good bacteria?”
Studies indicate that psyllium fiber will not result in mineral loss, and friendly bacteria actually feed on fibre.

What can I expect when I take AIM Herbal Fiberblend?
You may notice more regular bowel movements and more complete evacuation of waste. As the fibre and herbs “clean” your system, you may notice common detoxification symptoms. See AIM’s Detoxification data sheet for more information.

Can AIM Herbal Fiberblend be habit-forming?
No. If used as directed, AIM Herbal Fiberblend is not habit-forming. However, if you stop taking it, you will need to replace the fibre by eating more natural fibres because your body will have grown accustomed to the amount of bulking fibre in AIM Herbal Fiberblend. If you do not replace it, you may experience some constipation or irregularity as your body adjusts.

Is there anyone who should not use AIM Herbal Fiberblend?
New users should note that exposure to psyllium and black walnut hulls may create a sensitivity resulting in an allergic reaction. Before use, pregnant or nursing women, people taking prescription medications, people who have kidney disease, or high blood pressure should consult a health practitioner. Keep out of reach of children.
