Probiotics vs Prebiotics

Probiotics are the microorganisms that live in our intestines. They help us digest our food and maintain our health by preventing pathogen attachment, and secreting important molecules such as vitamin K and some B’s. “Prebiotics” is a fancy-schmancy name for dietary fiber that our microorganisms eat to stay viable. Don’t let anyone sell you “pre-biotics”. AIGHHHH! You can eat an apple, vegetables, legumes, nuts or a bowl of oatmeal and be just fine.
