The simple solution for your daily fiber intake.
PHGG allows an easy increase in fiber intake without causing bloating or a feeling of fullness. The product is Low-FODMAP certified and especially suitable for sensitive digestive systems.
What is ?
PHGG (partially hydrolyzed guar gum) is a soluble dietary fiber obtained from guar gum through a special hydrolysis process. During this process, the components of guar gum are broken down into smaller, water-soluble parts. The result is a fine, tasteless, and colorless powder that dissolves effortlessly in liquids. Biomfiber PHGG can be easily and conveniently integrated into the diet, for example in water, yogurt, or smoothies. This makes it a simple way to increase daily fiber intake.
Unlike many other dietary fibers, PHGG does not swell and does not bind additional water in the intestine. This helps prevent bloating or a feeling of fullness. PHGG is therefore particularly suitable for people who are sensitive to certain fibers. In addition, it is Low-FODMAP certified and an ideal supplement for a balanced diet. FODMAPs are difficult-to-digest carbohydrates that can cause digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals. People who react sensitively to them therefore often choose foods with a low FODMAP content.
Biomfiber PHGG is a natural source of dietary fiber that contains no artificial additives or flavorings. Thanks to the special hydrolysis process, it also retains its original structure and dissolves easily in liquids. This allows PHGG to fit effortlessly into everyday life and offers a practical way to enrich the diet with soluble fiber.

Scientific background about
PHGG has been extensively studied in scientific research and is considered to be particularly well tolerated. This soluble dietary fiber undergoes a special hydrolysis process that reduces the viscosity of guar gum, allowing it to dissolve easily in water without gelling or forming clumps. This water solubility contributes to the high tolerability of PHGG and helps prevent unpleasant symptoms such as bloating or gas.
Studies suggest that PHGG acts as a prebiotic fiber by supporting the growth of healthy gut bacteria.² During fermentation by the microbiota, short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate are produced, which may play a role in maintaining normal gut barrier function. This makes PHGG easy to integrate into a balanced diet and helps contribute to a varied fiber intake.
In addition, Biomfiber PHGG is low in FODMAPs, making it a good choice for people with irritable bowel syndrome or SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth). The Low-FODMAP diet aims to reduce fermentable carbohydrates (such as fructose, lactose, and certain sugar alcohols) that can cause digestive discomfort in some individuals. Due to its mild effect and specific properties, PHGG is well suited for long-term use to support digestion without causing the typical side effects associated with other fibers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does PHGG stand for?
PHGG stands for “Partially Hydrolyzed Guar Gum.” Natural guar gum is gently broken down into smaller, water-soluble components through a controlled hydrolysis process.
Who is this product particularly suitable for, and when?
PHGG is used by people who wish to support their digestion, as it may have a mild effect on bowel function. It can be a well-tolerated addition to the daily diet, particularly for individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It may also help increase fiber intake in cases of diarrhea (chronic or acute). PHGG is often taken after antibiotic therapy to support fiber intake and help restore the balance of the gut flora. It may also be a helpful supplement for people with chronic intestinal conditions such as ulcerative colitis and Crohns disease. Due to its soluble properties, PHGG can provide gentle support for regular digestion in cases of constipation.
How long can PHGG be taken?
No negative effects are known from long-term use of PHGG. However, it is recommended to increase the dosage gradually and to test individually how the body responds to the product. To assess personal tolerance, one can start with a small amount (e.g. 3–5 g daily) and gradually increase it. Before long-term use or in the case of specific health concerns, it is advisable to consult a physician.
What distinguishes PHGG from other dietary fibers?
How is PHGG taken?
The powder can be easily integrated into everyday nutrition. It can be stirred into beverages such as water, juice, or smoothies. It can also be mixed effortlessly into meals such as yogurt, quark, or porridge. Thanks to its easy solubility and neutral taste, it is particularly convenient to use.
How does PHGG differ from regular guar gum?
Guar gum and PHGG share some similarities, but they differ in their structure and effects in the body. Guar gum swells strongly and forms a highly viscous gel. It draws a large amount of water from the body, which can cause bloating in sensitive individuals. PHGG, on the other hand, is obtained from guar gum through partial hydrolysis and therefore behaves quite differently. It dissolves clearly and easily in water, does not form a gel, and is tasteless and odorless. In addition, it is fermented more slowly in the colon, which may result in reduced gas formation.
What happens to PHGG in the gut?
PHGG reaches the colon largely undigested, where it is fermented by the beneficial gut bacteria present there. During this fermentation process, short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate are produced, which are naturally occurring substances in the gut. This process is part of normal digestion and helps support the overall microbiome.
What else should be considered when taking PHGG?
It is advisable to start with a small amount of around 3 to 5 g per day and gradually increase the dose to determine how the body responds to the product. During use, care should also be taken to drink sufficient fluids to support the effect of the fiber. In addition, it is recommended to take PHGG with an interval of about 1 to 2 hours from medications to avoid potential interactions. If there are any uncertainties, it is sensible to seek professional advice in advance.
