What Are Prebiotics?

Prebiotics and probiotics are sometimes confused. Here, we would like to explain prebiotics, which are an important support element for the digestive system. What are prebiotics?

Definition of Prebiotics

Prebiotics are indigestible food components that promote the growth and development of beneficial microorganisms in the human intestines. Prebiotics provide many benefits, such as maintaining gut flora (microbiome) health and strengthening the immune system.

Benefits of Prebiotics

Prebiotics are typically referred to as dietary fibers. They are carbohydrates and sugar alcohols that cannot be fully broken down and absorbed by the digestive system. Prebiotics serve as a food source for the beneficial bacteria naturally found in the intestines (especially bifidobacteria and lactobacillus). These bacteria are important for gut health and are nourished by prebiotics.

Natural Sources of Prebiotics

Natural sources of prebiotics include beans, onions, garlic, leeks, artichokes, asparagus, bananas, oats, barley, whole grain bread, oatmeal, and some legumes.
