Why prebiotic nutrition matters

Prebiotics are substances—often specific types of dietary fibre—that are selectively used by microorganisms in the body and can contribute to the gut microbiome. They are not the same as probiotics, which are live microorganisms.

Fibre is part of everyday food quality

Many people can benefit from paying attention to dietary fibre intake. A varied diet that includes pulses, whole grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds is a practical foundation. Some products also include specific prebiotic fibres such as FOS.

What to look for on a product label

• Fibre quantity per serving and per 100 g
• Ingredient list and source of fibre
• Serving size and suggested use
• Allergen and storage information

GWellth’s approach

We aim to make prebiotic-first food choices easier to understand through transparent product information and accessible education. Product-specific amounts and claims must always be checked against the approved formulation, laboratory analysis and final label.
