Chicory root powder is made by roasting and grinding the roots of the Cichorium intybus plant, a perennial herb native to Europe but now grown worldwide. It is widely known for its use as a coffee substitute or additive due to its rich, deep flavor, and for its health benefits, particularly its high inulin content (a type of prebiotic fiber).Chicory root powder is commonly used as a caffeine-free coffee alternative, either on its own or blended with regular coffee to reduce caffeine content. It can also be added to smoothies, baked goods, or teas. Nutritionally, it is valued for its inulin fiber, which supports gut health, aids digestion, and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Chicory root is also used in herbal medicine to promote liver health and reduce inflammation.
