This is a natural gum consisting of the hardened sap of various species of the acacia tree. Not only does this gum act as a carrier for organic flavors, but it's also a good source of fiber. Gum Acacia has been used for centuries in traditional Arabic medicine to heal wounds, hence its alternative name, Arabic gum.[1]
