1;Hi Doctor Nelson, I am so confused, can you please shed some light on the difference between pro biotic and pre-biotic?
2) Susan, though the two sound the same they are poles apart. Probiotics contain from one to a few species of bacteria, occurs naturally in fermented foods like yoghurt and sauerkraut.
3) They are effected by heat, cold, acid and die in time. The stomach, generally acid is hostile to these bacteria's. Best way to get it into the colon where it belongs is via an enema
4 Prebiotics are a very special form of dietary fibre, not affected by heat and cold and nourish the thousands of good bacterial already living in the colon hostile to bad bacteria.
5) The best way to get them into the system is by having plenty of green, raw fruits and vegetables, sprouted legumes and seeds, with the least amount of sugar and carbs. Other source
6) rich in prebiotics are polydextrose to isomalto-oligosaccharides. Prebiotics enter the colon and nourish the beneficial bacteria. species like the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacter.
7 The difference between the two are: Probiotics can be considered like seeds to a starved lawn where Prebiotics are like the fertilizer that feeds the lawn. Which will you prefer?
