Pure Encapsulations' Poly-Prebiotic Powder that contains a blend of prebiotic fibers and polyphenols to promote microbiome health for cellular, immune, and GI function.
Some of the potential benefits of using Poly-Prebiotic Powder may include:
- Supports a healthy gut microbiome: Prebiotics and polyphenols are both known to support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut microbiome. A healthy gut microbiome is important for overall health, as it plays a role in digestion, immunity, and metabolism.
- Promotes GI barrier integrity: The gut barrier guards against harmful substances from entering the bloodstream and protects the body from infection. Prebiotics and polyphenols can help to strengthen the gut barrier and support its function.
- Supports immune function: The gut microbiome plays an important role in the immune system. Prebiotics and polyphenols can help to support the growth of beneficial bacteria that play a role in immune function.
- Supports cellular health: Prebiotics and polyphenols have antioxidant properties, which can help to protect cells from damage.
- May reduce digestive discomfort: Prebiotics and polyphenols have been shown to help reduce digestive discomfort, such as gas, bloating, and constipation.
Here are some additional details about the prebiotics and polyphenols contained in Poly-Prebiotic Powder:
- PreticX XOS (xylooligosaccharide) and BioEcolians -GOS (alpha-glucooligosaccharide): These prebiotics are both known to promote the growth of Bifidobacteria, a beneficial type of bacteria in the gut. Bifidobacteria are important for gut health, as they help to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that nourish the colon and support immune function.
- Polyphenols: Polyphenols are plant compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Some of the polyphenols contained in Pure Encapsulations' Poly-Prebiotic Powder include cranberry polyphenols, blueberry polyphenols, and pomegranate polyphenols. These polyphenols have been shown to support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut and promote gut barrier integrity.
