Prebiotics provide food for the good probiotic bacteria in the gut. Prebiotics help the good probiotic bacteria thrive and colonize the gut. (In other words&#8230; take up real estate and make babies). Humans do not absorb or digest prebiotic soluble fiber. However, the good bacteria residing in the human gut love to eat prebiotic soluble fiber.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to keep the good gut bacteria well-fed and nourished so that they can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fight off the bad bacteria, viruses, and fungi<\/li>\n<li>Strengthen the immune system<\/li>\n<li>Enhance digestion and GI function<\/li>\n<li>Reduce inflammation<\/li>\n<li>Regulate mood<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><font class=\"subhead\" style=\"color:#8dc63f;\">How does <b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b> reduce cholesterol and triglycerides?<\/font><br \/>\nSoluble fiber can reduce &#8220;bad&#8221; LDL cholesterol by binding with cholesterol particles in the gut and moving them out of the body before they can be absorbed.<\/p>\n<p><font class=\"subhead\" style=\"color:#8dc63f;\">When should I take <b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b>?<\/font><br \/>\n<b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b> can be taken any time of day.

They are a type of carbohydrate that is found in plant foods. However, not all carbohydrates are considered FODMAPs. FODMAPs are osmotic, meaning that they pull water into the GI tract. When eaten in excess, they may not be digested or absorbed very well and they can become fermented by bacteria in the GI tract. Low FODMAP diets are often recommended to people who suffer from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) or FGIDs (functional gastrointestinal disorders).<\/p>\n<p>Many high fiber foods contain high amounts of FODMAPs. Common FODMAPs in your daily diet can include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fructose: most fruits, honey, and high fructose corn syrup<\/li>\n<li>Fructans (inulin): onion, garlic, and wheat<\/li>\n<li>Lactose: dairy<\/li>\n<li>Galactans: lentils, beans, and legumes including soy<\/li>\n<li>Polyols: artificial sweeteners containing sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, maltitol, and stone fruits, such as avocado, apricots, cherries, nectarines, peaches, and plums<\/li>\n<li>Fiber supplements: Inulin, FOS, wheat dextrin, GOS, and IMOs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b> is FODMAP Friendly!<br \/>\nIn other words &ndash; If you follow a low FODMAP diet &ndash; You can have <b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b>!<\/p>\n<p><font class=\"subhead\" style=\"color:#8dc63f;\">What are the key benefits of <b>just better.<sup style=\"line-height:0;font-size:12px;\">&reg;<\/sup><\/b> prebiotic fiber supplement?<\/font><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Promotes weight loss &ndash; Feel full faster.
