Pre & Probiotics - What's the Difference?
Gut health is a popular topic among consumers, as mentioned in our previous blog, The Evolution of Gut Health. At the centre of this conversation is both pre and probiotics, and although you may have frequently heard these terms, it's important to understand the differences, and role they play on maintaining a happy gut.
The Evolution of Gut Health
Consumer awareness around maintaining good 'gut health' is on the rise. According to the market research company Mintel, internet searches for the term are up 669% from 2019. This was also counted pre COVID-19, which saw a considerable increase is consumers looking for functional food and drink.

Research suggests that the composition of our gut microbiome (the types of bacteria living in our intestines) may play a role in how COVID-19 affects us because of the way they regulate inflammation in the body.
