The formula

Three ingredients. One foundation for gut health.

GUT GLOW combines two gentle prebiotic fibers with Tremella mushroom extract to support gut health from within. Unlike probiotics, which introduce live microorganisms, GUT GLOW’s prebiotic fibers feed beneficial bacteria already living in your gut, helping support your gut microbiome.

  1. Partially hydrolyzed guar gumSunfiber®

    5,250mg

    The regulator. A gentle, low-viscosity soluble fiber from the guar bean, clinically studied for regularity, bloating and beneficial bacteria.

    Gentle on the gut. In a 12-week study of 188 adults, half of those taking wheat bran switched to partially hydrolyzed guar gum, versus 11% who switched the other way.1
  2. Organic acacia guminavea™

    2,400mg

    The nourisher. A soluble fiber from the sap of acacia trees that adds a second source of fuel for your gut’s beneficial bacteria.

  3. Organic TremellaMushroom extract, 10:1

    360mg

    The immune ally. Treasured in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries as the “beauty mushroom”. A source of mushroom polysaccharides with immunomodulating properties.†

70–80%of immune cells are found in your gut.2 That’s why GUT GLOW pairs partially hydrolyzed guar gum and acacia to support a healthy gut, with Tremella mushroom, a source of polysaccharides that help regulate immune system activity.†

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything to know about GUT GLOW before you begin.

What is GUT GLOW?
A daily prebiotic fiber powder for gut health. Every 3-scoop serving combines 5,250 mg of partially hydrolyzed guar gum (Sunfiber®) and 2,400 mg of organic acacia gum with 360 mg of organic Tremella mushroom extract. It helps improve bowel regularity and is unflavored, so it mixes into almost anything.
Is GUT GLOW a prebiotic or a probiotic?
Probiotics introduce live microorganisms. Prebiotics are fibers that feed the beneficial bacteria already living in your gut. GUT GLOW is a prebiotic, with partially hydrolyzed guar gum, acacia gum and Tremella: in published trials, partially hydrolyzed guar gum increased beneficial bifidobacteria and Akkermansia versus placebo.
Is there research behind it?
Its key ingredient, partially hydrolyzed guar gum (Sunfiber®), has been studied in published trials. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 5 g a day raised bowel movements from 5.4 to 6.5 per week over 8 weeks, with no change on placebo. At 5 g a day, bifidobacteria rose from 8.0% to 11.4% of gut bacteria over 12 weeks, and in another trial Akkermansia increased versus placebo within 2 weeks. In a 4-week study, bloating scores dropped by about a third. Each 3-scoop serving of GUT GLOW contains 5.25 g, alongside acacia gum and Tremella. These are ingredient studies, not studies of GUT GLOW itself.
How is GUT GLOW different from other fiber supplements?
GUT GLOW pairs two gentle prebiotic fibers, partially hydrolyzed guar gum and acacia gum, with Tremella mushroom extract. Partially hydrolyzed guar gum is low in viscosity, works at a small daily dose and is known for being gentle: in a 12-week study of 188 adults, half of the people taking 30 g of wheat bran a day chose to switch to 5 g of partially hydrolyzed guar gum, compared with 11% who switched the other way.
How does gut health relate to immunity?
70 to 80% of immune cells are found in your gut, so caring for your gut is part of caring for your whole body. GUT GLOW pairs partially hydrolyzed guar gum and acacia to support a healthy gut, with Tremella mushroom, a source of polysaccharides that help regulate immune system activity.†
How long until I notice a difference?
Make it a daily habit. In published research on partially hydrolyzed guar gum, Akkermansia increased within 2 weeks, bloating eased within 4 weeks, regularity improved over 8 weeks, and bifidobacteria increased over 12 weeks of daily use, so give it at least 2 to 3 months.
How do I take it?
Stir 2 to 3 scoops into at least one glass of water, coffee, tea or a smoothie once a day; take 3 scoops for all benefits. It is unflavored. Take it 2 hours before or after other medications or supplements, and drink plenty of fluids.
Will extra fiber make me feel bloated at first?
Any new fiber can take a little getting used to as your gut adapts. Drink plenty of fluids, and consult a health care practitioner if symptoms persist or worsen.
Can I take it with other Bend products?
Yes. GUT GLOW pairs naturally with RENEW + PROTECT for a glow-from-within routine: support for healthy gut function, plus skin defended from within.
Who should ask a practitioner first?
Ask a health care practitioner before use if you have diabetes in which blood sugar is difficult to regulate, are pregnant or breastfeeding, take medications that slow bowel movement (e.g. opioids, loperamide), have abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or fever, or have had a sudden change in bowel habits lasting more than 2 weeks, undiagnosed rectal bleeding, or no bowel movement after using a laxative.
