Wed, 24 Dec 2008 15:03:35 +0000 http://www.balancedimmunehealth.com/?p=687#comment-209 Thank you for the clarification on the difference between probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics. I recently started taking a probiotic supplement and have already noticed a difference in my digestive health. Everything seems to be running more smoothly. I also noticed that the manufacturer of my probiotic also has a digestive enzyme supplement with fructo-oligosaccharides, one of the probiotics mentioned in your article. I’m thinking that maybe I should be taking a prebiotic with my probiotic to increase growth of these healthy bacteria in my body. Have you run across any research or recommendations that support taking probiotics in conjunction with prebiotics? Thanks again for the info!
