pre & probiotic



what is it?

Prebiotics act as the “food” for the beneficial probiotic bacteria, enhancing their activity. Prebiotics also encourage the absorption of bone-strengthening minerals like calcium and magnesium due to the way they are digested.

Probiotics aid the gut by increasing the number of helpful bacteria, and inhibiting harmful bacteria, and may strengthen the body’s immune response.

it is called synbiotics when taking together at the same time.... as both work together in a synergistic way to enhance probiotic benefits.
