UNDERSTANDING PROBIOTICS & PREBIOTICS

UNDERSTANDING PROBIOTICS & PREBIOTICS

Probiotics = Good bacteria. Prebiotics = Food for good bacteria. Together, they keep your gut balanced and healthy!

Our gut is like a bustling city full of bacteria, both good and bad. The good bacteria (probiotics) help break down food, produce vitamins, and fight off harmful invaders. But they need proper nourishment to thrive (prebiotics).

🎯 Probiotics are live bacteria that add to the beneficial microbes in your gut. They’re found in fermented foods like yoghurt/ nunu, kunu, iru (locust beans), Ogiri, Ogi (fermented pap made from grains).

🎯 Prebiotics are fibers that feed good bacteria, found in foods like onions, garlic, unripe bananas, whole grains, honey, tigernuts, fruits and vegetables.

Eating both ensures a balanced gut, reducing bloating, boosting immunity, and improving digestion which eventually have a positive impact on overall well-being!

Remember your gut is your second brain and a healthy gut translate to an healthy living.
