Probiotics

Beneficial Bacteria, known as “The Good Guys”

Don’t let the word bacteria put you off. When it’s good, it’s really good. In simple terms, probiotics are naturally occurring beneficial bacteria in your gut. The World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations both agree that adequate amounts of these “live microorganisms” are indeed beneficial and crucial for overall good health.

There are many natural sources of probiotics such as yogurt, fermented milk, kombucha, soy drinks and dietary supplements. The more probiotics we eat and drink the more beneficial bacteria we produce. PRE Probiotic Enhancer is a prebiotic beverage - a delicious, refreshing and natural way to promote these beneficial bacteria, what we call “The Good Guys,” and help boost digestive health for your overall wellbeing. PRE Probiotic Drink Mix provides you with the delicious blend of pre- and probiotics as a powerhouse team to support your immune system.

Prebiotics

Food for Probiotics

Everything needs to eat! In this case probiotics, or healthy bacteria, feast on a diet of prebiotics, a very specific type of food that helps rapidly increase the amount of healthy bacteria in the digestive system. Simply put - prebiotics are the food that feeds the probiotics in your gut. The more good bacteria you have the better your digestive system will work and the healthier you become from the inside out. After all, good digestive health can make happier people and that means a better day for everyone.

Read the Label: What is FOS?

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) is a class of non-digestible carbohydrates that occur naturally in a wide variety of plant foods. Once the FOS reaches the colon, they are used by “The Good Guys” found there (probiotics) for growth and multiplication. Increasing the population of these beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract may help enhance the digestive system and boost your immune system.

Read the Label: What is Inulin?

The most common type of prebiotics come from a soluble dietary fiber called inulin found in many plants and vegetables such as: asparagus, Jerusalem artichokes, onions, and chicory. Where most foods are digested immediately, prebiotics are a healthy non-digestible food that feeds the good bacteria in your digestive tract.

Probiotics vs. Prebiotics: What’s the difference?

Probiotics are naturally occurring, living organisms in your digestive system. Pro means “for; biotics means “life.” “For life.” Prebiotics are non-living fiber that feed probiotics. In essence, prebiotics are the food used by probiotics to flourish in your digestive tract for healthier digestion and optimal health.
