Prebiotic Supplements FAQs
What is the difference between a prebiotic and a probiotic?
Probiotics are live bacteria that can produce a benefit when consumed in adequate amounts. Prebiotics are specialised fibres that feed the beneficial bacteria already living in your gut. Taking both together can be particularly effective for supporting microbiome health.
Which Invivo prebiotic should I choose?
Bio.Me Prebio PHGG is a gentle, low-FODMAP soluble fibre ideal for those with sensitive digestion. Bio.Me Prebio GOS is a targeted prebiotic that selectively feeds Bifidobacterium. Both are suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Your healthcare practitioner can help determine which is best for your needs.
Can prebiotics cause bloating?
Some people may experience temporary bloating when first introducing prebiotic fibre. We recommend starting with a lower dose and gradually increasing to allow your gut bacteria to adjust. PHGG in particular is known for being well tolerated, even in individuals with sensitive digestion.
How do I take Invivo prebiotic powder?
Both PHGG and GOS dissolve easily in hot or cold drinks. PHGG is completely tasteless and textureless, making it simple to add to water, tea, coffee or smoothies. GOS has a subtly sweet flavour and can be mixed into any beverage of your choice.
Are Invivo prebiotics suitable during pregnancy?
Yes, both GOS and PHGG are suitable for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Always check the specific product page for suitability guidance, and consult your healthcare practitioner if you have any concerns.
