The British Hemp Co

Happy Gut by The British Hemp Co. is a natural, plant-based prebiotic powder designed to support digestive health and the gut microbiome. It is a simple, "no-nonsense" blend that relies on a combination of hemp-derived nutrition and chicory root fiber.

Core Ingredients

The product is formulated with a focus on clean, natural nutrition without artificial additives like preservatives, anti-caking agents, flavourings, or sweeteners.

• Milled Hemp Seed: Provides 50% insoluble fibre to support regular bowel movements and 14% plant-based protein.

• Chicory Root: Provides 16% soluble fibre (inulin), which acts as a prebiotic to feed beneficial gut bacteria.

Key Benefits

• Digestive Support: The combination of soluble and insoluble fibre helps regulate transit time and supports overall gut balance.

• Blood Sugar & Metabolism: The soluble fibre content can help prevent blood sugar spikes and may support healthy cholesterol levels.

• Clean Label: It is vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.

• Sustainable Sourcing: The product is made from regeneratively grown British hemp, which is considered carbon-neutral due to its ability to sequester carbon.

How to Use

• Versatility: The powder is unflavoured and can be mixed into smoothies, porridge, yoghurt, juices, water, or used as a nutrient-dense topper for salads, soups, and casseroles.

• Dosage: The manufacturer generally recommends a daily intake of approximately 15–20g, though users are advised to introduce fiber-rich products gradually to avoid temporary digestive discomfort like bloating or gas.

• Hydration: Because it is a high-fibre supplement, it is important to drink plenty of fluids (the NHS recommendation is 8–10 cups per day) to help the fiber pass through the system effectively.

Important Considerations

• Advisory: As with any dietary supplement, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before use, particularly if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have pre-existing medical conditions.

• Product Variants: You may encounter different versions or sizes of the product (such as the 400g Super Pre-biotic Blend or smaller 250g Soluble/Insoluble specific blends); always check the label for the specific fibre profile if you are targeting a specific digestive need.
