Digestive Support
Poly-Prebiotic Powder, a shelf-stable combination of polyphenols and prebiotics, boosts bifidobacterial and microbiome diversity in the G.I. tract, promoting gut barrier integrity and immune system balance.‡
The polyphenols in this great-tasting powder supplement are derived from pomegranate, cranberry and blueberry, supporting the growth of lactobacilli and bifidobacterium in the colon as well as the GI tract, for cellular health. As the polyphenols pass through the G.I. tract, their bioavailability is enhanced, and they can support healthy gut microbial composition.‡
How To Use
1 serving, 1-2 times daily, mixed with a beverage or into food.
Science & Research
Prebiotics are nondigestible components of food (think, plant fibers) that help healthy bacteria grow in the gut. Evidence suggests that they may play an even more significant role than probiotics, performing beneficial and protective functions within the gut, leading to overall cellular, immune and metabolic support. In contrast to many common prebiotics, studies on the prebiotics in this supplement—PreticX XOS, α-GOS and polyphenols—have reported very low incidence of gas, bloating or other intestinal side effects. Interestingly, changes to the diet have been shown to alter microflora within just a few days. Restricted diets typically decrease microbiome diversity, while varied and diverse sources of fiber and polyphenols increase microbiome diversity. High-microbiome diversity has been linked to optimal health and resilience.‡
