What is Cut Root Chicory used for?
Cut Root Chicory is much more than just a plant; it's a veritable treasure trove of natural virtues. Native to Europe and Asia, this herbaceous plant has stood the test of time, establishing itself as an essential remedy in traditional pharmacopoeia. Its secret? A composition rich in inulin, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Why incorporate chicory into your daily routine? Chicory root, a rich source of inulin, acts as a powerful prebiotic, encouraging the growth of good bacteria in the intestine. This translates into easier digestion and relief from common digestive disorders such as constipation or irritable bowel syndrome.

Antioxidants such as chlorogenic acid and luteolin play a crucial role in reducing inflammation. They are your allies in combating joint pain, allergies and other inflammations, enabling you to regain comfort in your daily life.
What's more, chicory is no slouch when it comes to nutrients: potassium, magnesium, vitamin C, each root is a cocktail of benefits. A stronger immune system, radiant skin and improved healing capacity: that's what Chicory Chopped Root promises you.
