How do I know if a prebiotic supplement is high quality?

  1. Type of prebiotic: Look for supplements that contain well-researched prebiotics, such as inulin, fructooligosaccharides (FOS), galactooligosaccharides (GOS), and human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). HMOs, in particular, are gaining attention for their potential health benefits, including their ability to promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria (1).
  2. Purity and potency: Choose supplements that are pure and potent. Look for products that are third-party tested and certified for purity and potency, and that list the amount of prebiotic per serving.
  3. Source and manufacturing: Check the source and manufacturing process of the prebiotic supplement. Look for supplements that are made from high-quality, natural ingredients and that are manufactured using good manufacturing practices (GMPs).
  4. Form and dosage: Consider the form and dosage of the prebiotic supplement. Some prebiotics are available in powder or capsule form, while others are added to food products. Choose a form that is convenient for you and that delivers an effective dose.
  5. Research and reviews: Look for prebiotic supplements that have been researched and reviewed. Check for studies or clinical trials that support the effectiveness of the product, and read reviews from other users to get an idea of their experience with the supplement.
