Elecampane Root Extract INCI Name Inula Helenium Extract CAS 84012-20-4 EINECS ELINCS No 281-666-1 photo picture image Elecampane is a source of inulin (also known as fructosan), a carbohydrate-based fiber that is broken down and absorbed in the colon instead of in the upper digestive tract where most other foods are digested.

 Also unlike most other carbohydrates, which are converted to glycogen and stored temporarily in the liver, inulin is converted into fatty acids that spread out to many different tissues in the body.

 Inulin is often substituted for other carbohydrates in food products for individuals with diabetes because it provides a sweet taste without causing drastic changes in blood sugar levels.
 It may have a general lowering effect on blood sugar levels, as well.

 Additionally, inulin is thought to protect beneficial bacteria in the colon while suppressing harmful bacteria. Therefore inulin may help prevent bowel diseases, including colon cancer. However, research in humans is limited for this possible use.
