What is the difference between a prebiotic and a probiotic?
Probiotics are live healthy bacteria, which in sufficient quantities, may provide health benefits. When you eat foods that contain probiotics they make their way down into your gut, where there is literally an ecosystem of bacteria working hard to help your body stay well. Prebiotics are fibres that feed the healthy gut bacteria and are important in maintaining a balanced gut. They lay the groundwork for the probiotics to flourish.
