Description
Micronutrition PHGG is a single-ingredient fibre powder made from 100% organic Sunfiber® partially hydrolysed guar gum (PHGG), a soluble fibre from the guar bean. Each 5 g scoop gives you 4.35 g of dietary fibre, which makes it a good source of fibre, and dietary fibre contributes to regular laxation. It has no taste or smell and dissolves in cold drinks without thickening them. The 250 g pack holds 50 serves, about $0.80 a serve.

What Is PHGG and How Is It Different From Guar Gum?
PHGG starts as guar gum, the fibre from the guar bean. It is broken down with enzymes so that it dissolves clear in water instead of turning into a thick gel, while keeping its soluble fibre. That is why you can stir a scoop into a drink without changing its texture.
Suitable For / Not Suitable For
Suitable for: Vegans and vegetarians, and people avoiding gluten, dairy, soy, corn, eggs or nuts.
Ingredients

Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum
What is partially hydrolysed guar gum?
Partially hydrolysed guar gum (PHGG) is fibre from the guar bean, treated with enzymes so it dissolves clear instead of turning into a gel. That makes it the easy-to-mix choice if raw guar gum is too thick for you.

Is this the right fibre for you?
Common questions
Is PHGG the same as guar gum?
They're related, but not identical. PHGG starts as guar gum, the fibre from the guar bean, which is then broken down with enzymes to remove its thickening power. Regular guar gum turns thick and gel-like in water, while PHGG dissolves clear. Australia's permitted ingredients list (Schedule 1) doesn't list PHGG separately, so products are covered under the guar gum or guar galactomannan items instead.
Does PHGG work the same way as guar gum for cholesterol?
No, and it's a common mix-up. The cholesterol research on guar gum is about the thick, gel-forming version. Breaking it down is exactly what makes PHGG dissolve clear rather than gel, and the cholesterol effect depends on that gel. So that research doesn't apply to PHGG.
