Pre-B by New Roots Herbal is a formula with 5 prebiotics: resistant starch, xylooligosaccharides,
fructooligosaccharides, arabinogalactan and galactooligosaccharides. Prebiotics have been widely
studied for their beneficial effects on the gut microbiome. Several clinical studies have shown that
prebiotics selectively increase the levels of probiotic species of Bifidobacterium and even Lactobacillus
in the gut. Adults consuming prebiotics show significant increases in the levels of Bifidobacterium in
their gut microbiota, as well as other butyrate-producing bacteria such as Ruminococcus, Oscillospira
and Faecalibacterium.
DETAILS:
Prebiotics, in addition to selectively increasing the levels of probiotic Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species in the
gut, inhibit pathogenic microbial species such as Shigella and Escherichia coli. This mechanism of action is what makes
prebiotics ideal for improving gastrointestinal health. Prebiotic supplementation has been shown to relieve diarrhoea
in infants and children, as well as to cure chronic constipation in formula-fed babies. In addition to modifying the gut
microbiome, prebiotics may also modulate immune markers by influencing inflammatory pathways. These effects have
further implications, as prebiotic supplementation has been shown to improve serum levels of "good" high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol while decreasing levels of "bad" low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in diabetic
patients and patients with chronic kidney disease.
Indications and uses:
Improves bowel movements and constipation.
Promotes a healthy gut microbiota.
Improves immune function.
Mitigates gastrointestinal inflammation.
Helps to improve lipid profile.
Helps control blood glucose levels
