What is Probiotic?
Probiotics are the live, good and friendly bacteria that provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts. Two most common strains are Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. Example of probiotic-rich foods are yogurt, kefir, miso, sauerkraut, kimchi and tempeh.
What is Prebiotic?
Prebiotics are food for the probiotics and they act as nutrition for these friendly bacteria strains, stimulating their growth and promoting a thriving gut microbiome. Consuming foods with prebiotic can help increase good gut bacteria, support nutrient absorption, and influence the immune system in our kids. Examples of prebiotic fiber are apples, oats, avocados, onion, garlic, sweet potato and corn.
Probiotic or Prebiotic ?
Both probiotics and prebiotics play a crucial role and work together to help maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the gut and support the immune system. They may help alleviate common digestive problems like constipation, diarrhea, colic, and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. A healthy gut microbiome can positively impact the immune system by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria that fight off harmful pathogens. Some of the probiotic and prebiotic for children in Malaysia are:-
