Good idea: A "pre"biotic feeds the bacteria in the "pro"biotic, so these colonies grow and fluorish. Prebiotics consist of carbohydrate that is indigestible by humans, but which their gut bacteria love. It can help normalize the blend of bacteria in your gut. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20920376 you can take supplemental forms once daily with food, or yogurt/kefir with live cultures daily instead.
