Why we love it?
Stick with us. If you’re still wrapping your head around all the different ‘biotics’, think of your gut like a garden. A vibrant, lush oasis teeming with bacteria and tiny creatures. Now think of each ‘biotic’ like this:
What are probiotics?
Probiotics = Seeds
Think of probiotics like the seeds you plant in your garden. They introduce beneficial bacteria into your gut, but these “seeds” often don’t stick around—they’re transient. While probiotics can help for a short time, they don’t always grow into a permanent part of your gut ecosystem. Plus, some strains might produce unwanted byproducts, like histamines, which can cause problems in sensitive individuals.
What are prebiotics?
Prebiotics = Fertiliser
Think of prebiotics as the garden's fertiliser. They feed bacteria in your gut, but the problem is they feed everything—both the good and the bad. If not carefully managed, prebiotics can lead to an overgrowth of “good” bacteria that produce too many metabolites, throwing off the balance in your gut. So, while prebiotics can be helpful, they sometimes do more harm than good.
What are synbiotics?
Synbiotics = Seed + Fertiliser
Think of synbiotics as a mixture of probiotics (seeds) and prebiotics (fertiliser), hoping to achieve the best of both worlds. However, this combination doesn’t always solve the problem—it still risks feeding harmful bacteria or causing an overgrowth of certain species. Synbiotics aim for balance but don’t always hit the mark, as they depend on your unique gut environment.
What are Modbiotics®?
