Pre-B by New Roots Herbal is a formula with 5 prebiotics: resistant starch, xylooligosaccharides, fructooligosaccharides, arabinogalactan and galactooligosaccharides. Prebiotics have been widely studied for their beneficial effects on the gut microbiome. Several clinical studies have shown that prebiotics selectively increase the levels of probiotic species of Bifidobacterium and even Lactobacillus in the gut. Adults consuming prebiotics show significant increases in the levels of Bifidobacterium in their gut microbiota, as well as other butyrate-producing bacteria such as Ruminococcus, Oscillospira and Faecalibacterium.
