What Is PHGG (Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum)?

PHGG is made by enzymatically breaking down guar gum - a fibre extracted from the guar bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba), grown mainly in India and Pakistan. That hydrolysis process is what makes PHGG different from regular guar gum: it shortens the fibre chains, which drops the viscosity right down while keeping the fibre 100% soluble.

Key traits:

  • Source: Guar bean seed, processed to reduce molecular weight and viscosity.

  • Solubility: Fully soluble - dissolves clear in water or juice, doesn't turn into a gel or thicken your drink.

  • Gentleness: This is PHGG's real selling point. Because it's low-viscosity, it moves through the gut without the sudden bulk or gel formation that trips up sensitive systems.

  • FODMAP status: Monash University has laboratory-certified specific PHGG products (such as Sunfiber-based supplements) as low FODMAP at standard serving sizes of roughly 5–7g/day - one of the very few fibres cleared for use during a FODMAP elimination phase (Monash FODMAP, 2023).

  • Prebiotic effect: PHGG feeds beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus in the large intestine, and research shows it can increase short-chain fatty acid production without the gas spike you'd expect from a fermentable fibre (PMC, 2015).

Clinical trials using 6g/day of PHGG for at least 12 weeks reported meaningful improvement in bloating and gas in IBS patients, with benefits persisting for weeks after stopping - and no significant side effects reported across the studies reviewed (PubMed; PMC, 2015).
