What is Prebiotic?

0

Prebiotic is the non-digestible carbohydrates, which is the essential food for probiotics that is vital to ensure probiotics survive and thrive in the human gut. When we ingest prebiotic, they pass through the digestive system in its wholesome form and became fermented by colonic microflora thereby stimulating the growth of probiotics. There, they produce lactate and short-chain fatty acids as the energy source for the colonic cells.
