🌟 Overview
Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers and compounds that feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut, helping them thrive. Think of them as the fertilizer for your microbiome garden.
Key Points:
- Definition: Prebiotics = “food for probiotics”
- Function: Nourish beneficial gut microbes to improve digestion, immunity, and metabolic health
- Not digested by humans — they reach the colon intact, where microbes feast on them
