Functional Jicama Shots

Xicama's Prebiotic Shots Support Gut and Brain Health

— May 23, 2019 — Lifestyle
Jicama, the fiber-rich root vegetable, is a key ingredient in all of Xicama's products, including its functional probiotic shots. These wellness shots make the most of jicama, an ingredient that's sourced from Mexico and known to be high in nutrients and antioxidants.

While Xicama's shot-sized Gut Health Elixir supports the body with Vitamin C, anti-inflammatory turmeric, lime and ginger, the brand's HPP cold-processed Brain Health Elixir boasts a similar but different formula that is powered by turmeric, the blue-green algae spirulina, matcha and lime.

With many health-conscious consumers looking for a way to quickly bolster their health by addressing multiple bodily systems at once, these shots offer an effective way to support a better state of being through the gut.

1. Prebiotic Shots - There is a disruptive innovation opportunity in creating new prebiotic shot products using jicama and other high-nutrient ingredients.
2. Functional Beverages - The trend of functional beverages can be extended to shots, opening up opportunities to create functional and healthy shot products.
3. Wellness Shots - There are opportunities for businesses to expand their wellness product lines to include shot-sized elixirs that support both gut and brain health.
Industry Implications
