Frequently asked questions

Why is it called OriginalFiber?
Because Michael Eekhof was the first in the Netherlands to use acacia fibre in his research with his clients. Hence ‘Original’. It is also the same standardised acacia fibre that has been used in published research. ‘Fiber’ because that is what it is all about: 97% fibre — virtually pure fibre. The rest came later.
What does it taste like?
Of nothing — and that is exactly the point.
How much do I take per day?
1 measuring scoop (± 5 g). Taking extra fibre for the first time? Build up gently and drink plenty of water.
Does it contain FODMAPs?
No. Acacia gum falls outside the FODMAP groups.
Tube or refill pouch?
Start with the tube (with wooden measuring scoop), then refill with the compostable pouch.
Can it be combined with medication?
If in doubt, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
Origin

From the Sahel.
Without felling a single tree.

OriginalFiber comes from the Acacia senegal — a tough tree that grows where almost nothing else grows.

The gum is tapped by hand, branch by branch. The tree stays standing, year after year.

Because the harvest makes the trees valuable, acacias are being planted — not felled.

The same region is being greened by initiatives such as the Great Green Wall and SOS Sahel.

All about acacia fibre

From tree to fine powder: what acacia fibre is, where it comes from and how you use it.

What is acacia fibre?

Acacia fibre — also known as acacia gum or gum arabic — is a water-soluble dietary fibre from the dried sap of the Acacia senegal (nowadays also called Senegalia senegal). The golden droplets of gum are harvested, dried and ground into a fine, light powder. OriginalFiber is 97% fibre — an exceptionally high fibre content, where many other fibre products stall at around 80%.

Why the name OriginalFiber?

The name is meant literally. Michael Eekhof was the first in the Netherlands to use acacia fibre — in his research with his own clients. The product that grew out of that was given the name OriginalFiber: the original acacia fibre, pure gum from the Acacia senegal — the same standardised raw material that has also been used in published research into acacia fibre. ‘Fiber’ stands for what it is all about: fibre, and as much of it as possible — with a 97% fibre content, OriginalFiber is virtually pure fibre. Everything that reached the market after that, came after that. Natuurlijk.fit makes OriginalFiber in house and has supplied healthcare professionals and practices directly since 2016.

No taste or smell

Acacia fibre is virtually tasteless and odourless and dissolves effortlessly in cold and hot drinks alike. That is why it fits into any routine: in your coffee, water, smoothie or yoghurt. You drink what you always drank — with fibre added.

Fibre in your daily diet

The Dutch dietary guidelines advise adults to have around 30 to 40 g of fibre a day — most people in the Netherlands do not reach that. One measuring scoop of OriginalFiber (± 5 g) provides over 4.8 g of fibre.

Quality from our own Dutch production

OriginalFiber is produced in the Netherlands in Natuurlijk.fit's own facility, led by Michael Eekhof — with lab experience since 2005. The production process is HACCP-assured and every batch is checked by an independent external laboratory.

Sustainably harvested in the Sahel

The gum is tapped by hand from living trees in the African gum belt — no tree is felled to produce this powder. Because the harvest gives the Acacia senegal economic value, acacias are actually being planted in the region. It is the same region where initiatives such as the Great Green Wall and SOS Sahel are working to green the Sahel.

Tube or refill pouch?

OriginalFiber comes in a sturdy tube with a wooden measuring scoop. After that you top it up each time with the 225 g compostable refill pouch — better value, and without plastic.
