The short answer is that prebiotics are a dietary fiber that feed the good bacteria (probiotics) in your gut microbiome. Hence, they support your gut health. Your gastrointestinal tract (or gut microbiome) is full of good bacteria. These good bacteria are commonly called probiotics. They help break down and digest your food in order to enhance your immune system and help with inflammation. They are critical to a healthy gut, that is why RISE got your back and is offering a large selection of Kombucha that are packed with good bacteria. But having good bacteria is not enough. You have to take care of them now, to make sure they work better for you. Hence the prebiotics. They are a dietary fiber that feeds and coddles the bacteria in your gut microbiome. They find their way into your intestine where they get fermented and broken down by the good bacteria into useful compounds that support your health in lots of different ways. Thanks to prebiotics, your good bacteria get stronger, they then improve your immune system, they get rid of the bad bacteria (pathogens) and help allergy prevention too!
