These prebiotic fibers make their way through our digestive system and help the good bacteria (probiotics) grow and flourish. Studies have shown that by eating foods containing PREBIOTIC fiber (fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole grains), the probiotic growth will be stimulated, and can therefore be an important weapon in the fight against heart disease, certain cancers, diabetes and obesity.

What Are Prebiotics and How do They Work?
Definition: Prebiotics are defined as: Non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria in the colon, and thus improve host health.[1]
Prebiotics effect the growth and stimulation of the good bacteria (bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria). These two groups of bacteria are claimed to have several beneficial effects in improving digestion and the effectiveness and intrinsic strength of the immune system.
Most potential prebiotics are carbohydrates, but the definition does not exclude non-carbohydrates to be used as a prebiotic. In theory, any antibiotic that would reduce the number of potentially harmful bacteria and favour health promoting bacteria or activities, can be considered a prebiotic.
