Fiber RS is a dietary fiber in powder form that feeds the good bugs in your gut microbiome, in turn supporting hormone balance, overall GI health, blood sugar and insulin levels within a normal range, satiety, cardiovascular health, and weight management. Three important ways nurturing gut bacteria supports hormone balance:
May help lower production of cortisol (the stress hormone) as GI symptoms are relieved.
May support production of serotonin, which upregulates function of other hormones including estrogen and progesterone.
May support the estrobolome, a subset of gut bacteria that helps with the metabolism of estrogens
Fiber RS contains two forms of resistant starch (RS) type II: organic green banana flour and organic potato starch powder. RS is a type of starch that is resistant to digestion, as enzymes in the GI tract are inactive against it. Once RS reaches the large intestine, it is fermented into short chain fatty acids, which are used as fuel for both beneficial microbes and enterocytes of the GI tract.
Recommended use: As a dietary supplement, take 10 grams (approx. one scoop) per day, or as directed by your health care practitioner. Best if mixed into liquid or smoothie using a blender or shaker bottle, or with soft foods such as dairy-free yogurt or gluten-free cereal. Due to the nature of resistant starch, consider starting with a smaller dose and increasing up to a full serving over several days depending on tolerance.

DO YOU SHIP TO CANADA, THE UK, AUSTRALIA OR OTHER COUNTRIES?
Unfortunately, at this point we only ship to the United States. This is due to the ever-evolving international laws surrounding supplements.
There are forwarding companies like MyUS.com, that will forward orders to you in your country for a fee.
In this case, it is the customer's responsibility to find out in advance if the supplement in question is legal in their country. For example, Progesterone and DHEA are not legal to ship into Canada (Canada classifies bio-identical hormones as drugs so they can only be prescribed by a doctor or naturopath).
We have had customers successfully ship their supplements abroad using MyUS.com, however we have only limited experience with this service.
WHY DOES SHIPPING COST $11.45?
For small businesses like ours, the shipping fee covers the very real costs of getting your order to you: shipping, handling, packaging, warehousing, insurances, and fairly compensating all the people involved along the way. We do our best to keep this shipping cost as low as possible, and offer FREE shipping for orders $79 and above.
WHY DOES MY SUBSCRIPTION ORDER INCLUDE $11.45 SHIPPING?
If you set up a subscription order and notice that you are being charged shipping, it could be due to one of these reasons:
1. Your order value is under $79
2. Your initial order qualifies for free shipping, but the order frequency on your subscriptions is different ( 1 product is set to ship every month, the other is set to ship every 2 months).
*The system automatically splits this kind of order into 2 separate shipments.
In this case it is more economical to set up one subscription every 2 months, and to increase your quantity to 2 units of the supplement that you consume monthly.
For example: 2 Vitamin B6 + 1 Essential Omegas every 2 months = free shipping.
