🍫 WHAT ARE PREBIOTICS AND WHY ARE THEY IMPORTANT?
🍫We spend a lot of time in this blog talking about the importance of digestive health and our prebiotic buckwheat chocolate is no exception. Prebiotics are plant fibers that contribute toward development of healthy bacteria growing in your gut. These fibers are carbs that your body cannot digest and will act as a source of food for the yeast and bacteria in your lower digestive tract.
🌾I'VE HEARD OF PROBIOTICS... ARE THESE THE SAME?
🌾Probiotics, on the other hand, ARE the live yeast and good bacteria that live in your gut. Prebiotics serve as food for these living microorganisms and would not be able to work effectively without access to these fibers.
🌾Probiotics are available in some foods, such as yogurt and kefir, or can be taken in supplements.
Both prebiotics and probiotics support your body's ability to build healthy bacteria and, ultimately, aid your digestion.
🌱WHERE ARE PREBIOTICS NATURALLY FOUND?
🌱You would commonly find prebiotics in certain grains, fruits, and vegetables like apples, artichokes, chicory, leeks, flaxseed, asparagus, and so on!
🌞ARE THERE ANY OTHER BENEFITS?
🌞Research suggests that prebiotics can also help improve calcium absorption, change how quickly the body processes carbohydrates, and support probiotic growth of gut bacteria.
🌞We are still learning about how the body is affected by prebiotics and how probiotics and prebiotics interact.
🤍Try our prebiotic line of chocolate for yourself and let us know what you think!
