Create the Optimal Environment For Healthy Intestinal Flora
A
prebiotic is a nondigestible food ingredient that selectively stimulates
the growth and activity of friendly, beneficial bacteria (probiotics)
within the intestines. These unique 'colonic foods' are not absorbed in
the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract, thus they enter the colon
to provide food for the resident beneficial bacteria. This symbiotic mixture
of prebiotics and probiotics (pHion Probiotic Blend) has been shown to
greatly increase gastrointestinal health.
The
most common prebiotics are inulin, fructooligosaccharides (FOS), and acacia.
Inulin is found in more than 36,000 plants and is their energy reserve.
Inulin is present in significant quantities in vegetables such as artichokes,
asparagus, leeks, onions, garlic, even wheat. It is also present in large
amounts in chicory roots from where we extract it. Fructooligosaccharides
(FOS), a natural constituent of Inulin, is fermented by most strains of
bifidobacteria. When bifidobacteria grow in environments providing FOS,
they do so at the expense of unfriendly, pathogenic bacteria.
Extensive
research has shown that ingestion of moderate amounts of inulin, like
that found in pHion Prebiotic Fiber, results in a significant increase
(5 to 10 times) of the beneficial bifidobacteria in the intestinal tract,
as shown in the diagram below. At the same time, the presence of less
desirable bacteria is significantly reduced. This proves that each gram
of inulin or Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) is of particular benefit to
bifidobacteria, stimulating their metabolism and increasing their activity,
potentially leading to a healthier colon.

Details
Why you want to take prebiotics with your probiotics.
Most Americans lead lifestyles that deplete their systems of beneficial bacteria
or friendly flora. As a result, they suffer from gas, diarrhea, bloating, constipation,
yeast overgrowth, or more serious digestive conditions. Therefore, taking a
stomach-stable probiotic formula, which helps re-colonize the gut with good
bacteria, is an excellent idea for anyone with digestive complaints. If you're
going to take a probiotic product such as pHion Probiotic Blend, we suggest
taking it with a probiotic formula, such as pHion Prebiotic Fiber
to obtain the maximize results.
Why? Because probiotics are like seeds. When you plant seeds, you can't
guarantee that all of them will take root and grow. However, you can take steps
to increase their chances, by giving them what they need to flourish: good soil,
plenty of water, and access to sunshine. It's the same with probiotics.
You could swallow your probiotics and just hope for the best. But if
you take your probiotics with prebiotics, you'll make sure they have what
they need to flourish and grow.
We especially recommend this step for people who have tested their pH using
pHion Diagnostic pH Test Strips and found it to be Very Acidic. Test your pH!
Introducing probiotics into a very acidic GI tract is like trying to plant seeds
in very poor soil. If you want the seeds to survive, you'll need to make
up for the poor-quality soil with high-quality plant food. Likewise, if you
want your probiotics to survive, you'll need to counterbalance the overly
acidic environment of your GI tract with high-quality probiotic food -
such as pHion Prebiotic Fiber.
What probiotics like to eat.
pHion Prebiotic Fiber contains exactly what probiotics like
to eat: prebiotics. These unique non-digestible fibers are not absorbed in the
upper part of the GI tract. Instead, they make their way to the colon, where
they provide an excellent food source for the bacteria there.
And here's the best part: only good bacteria like to eat prebiotics.
So by selectively feeding the beneficial bacteria, their numbers start to grow,
crowding out the harmful strains. In fact, research has shown
that the prebiotic inulin, which is featured in pHion Prebiotic Fiber, increases
the number of beneficial bifidobacteria in the colon threefold!
At the same time, it lowers levels of potentially harmful strains like bacteroides,
fusobacteria, and clostridia!
Not only that, an in vivo study found that inulin also increases the survival
of probiotics. So not only are there more of them, but they live longer. When
mice were fed the probiotic Lactobacillus casei by itself, it survived in their
GI tracts for 2 days. But when they were fed inulin at the same time as the
Lactobacillus casei, it lasted 6 days. In other words, taking the prebiotic
inulin with the probiotic Lactobacillus casei made it last three times longer!
How to support digestive health and up your fiber intake.
An added benefit of taking pHion Prebiotic Fiber is that it's a great
source of fiber. In case you didn't know, fiber has loads of health benefits.
It provides bulk in the intestines, making stools softer and easier to pass.
It creates a feeling of fullness without any calories, so it's a weight
watcher's dream. It delays stomach emptying (in other words, how long
it takes food to leave the stomach), meaning it prevents spikes in blood sugar.
It supports a healthy heart by maintaining normal cholesterol levels. And it
acts like a sponge, soaking up acids and toxins from the intestines.
Yet even with all those benefits, the average American only gets 15 grams of
fiber per day - just a little over half the recommended amount!
Adding pHion Prebiotic Fiber to your daily routine will not only support
your digestive health, it's also a great way to up your fiber intake.
With over 5 grams per serving, it delivers more than 20% of the recommended
daily intake of 25 grams. That's the same amount of fiber in a tablespoon
of flax powder (2 g) and a bowl of oatmeal (3 g) combined!
All in a convenient, great-tasting powder.
Now, we know that some people may prefer capsules to powders. But if you really
want the threefold increase in beneficial bacteria that inulin can achieve,
you have to take a decent dosage. And there's simply no way you can fit
5 grams of fiber into a reasonable amount of capsules. (We've tried.)
The good news is, we've created a product that solves people's
main objection to powders. pHion Prebiotic Fiber mixes easily with water or
juice (no clumping), so it's easy to drink, and it has a pleasant-tasting
orange flavor, so it tastes good going down.
Make your probiotics work better... with pHion Prebiotic Fiber.
Product Ingredients
The fibers in pHion Prebiotic Fiber include:
Prebiotic Soluble Fibers
Inulin is a non-digestible fiber that acts as food for friendly
flora. Numerous research studies have shown that inulin significantly increases
the number of beneficial bacteria in the GI tract. One clinical trial found
it increased the number of beneficial bifidobacteria in the colon threefold!
Yet inulin is selective, meaning it doesn't raise levels of harmful strains
- only good ones. Probiotic supplements should always be taken with prebiotics
like inulin, because prebiotics make probiotics work better.
As a side benefit, inulin has also been shown to increase calcium absorption,
so in addition to supporting a healthy digestive tract, it also builds better
bones!
Unlike some synthesized poly and oligosaccharides, our inulin is 100% natural,
extracted from chicory roots using hot water.
Note: While their names are similar, inulin and insulin have nothing to do
with each other. Inulin will increase neither insulin nor blood sugar levels,
so this product is perfectly suitable for diabetics.
Insoluble Fiber
Psyberloid. While soluble fiber dissolves in water, insoluble
fiber largely passes through the GI tract intact. That means it adds bulk to
the intestines, which eases constipation and makes you feel full after a meal.26
The good news about the insoluble fiber in pHion Prebiotic Blend is that it
is ground very fine and does dissolve well in water while still providing the
bulk you need to obtain the beneficial effects of Insoluble Fiber.
pHion Prebiotic Fiber provides beneficial Prebiotics
and fiber to help replenish and restore intestinal health, which is crucial
for overall pH Balance.
