How Much Do I Need?
There is no Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) established by the Health and Medicine Division of the National Academy of Sciences (formerly known as the Institute of Medicine) or recommended daily intake (RDI) outlined by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for prebiotics.
However, current studies and research suggest that supplementing with prebiotics can help support the growth of helpful bacteria in your gut and support normal immune function.*
We always recommend you check with your healthcare practitioner before starting a new supplement.
Why We Include Prebiotics
Prebiotics act as an ideal food to help probiotics thrive. We include prebiotics in our Adult Fiber and Kids Fiber supplements as well as our Kids Prebiotic and Probiotic and Adult Prebiotic and Probiotic Immunity Formulas to support the growth of helpful probiotic bacteria in the gut and to boost immune function.*
The prebiotic fiber in our Adult Fiber and Kids Fiber formulas comes from chicory root. The prebiotics in our Kids and Adult Prebiotic and Probiotic Immunity formulas come from beta-glucan which is clinically-proven for immune support.*
