What's the Difference Between Prebiotics vs. Probiotics?

You have questions, Bonny has answers.

Dear Bonny,

Is there a difference between prebiotics and probiotics? Do I need both? Help!

Dear Too Many Biotics,

Great question! They are not the same, but they are both awesome and support gut health. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria in the gut. Prebiotics are the food that the probiotic bacteria eat.

Similar names, different roles. Bonny is a prebiotic fiber but does not contain probiotics.

Want a deeper dive? Check out this article on prebiotics and probiotics by the Mayo Clinic.

Love,
Bonny
