What is the difference between a Prebiotic and a Probiotic? Prebiotic vs Probiotic

Prebiotics certainly are a exceptional type of soluble fiber that functions like a fertilizer to get the positive bacteria in the intestine to be balanced and keep your organism healthy. Probiotics are bacteria that are typically found in yogurt and other fermented meals.

The agave plant is grown for a period of 4 to 8 years until it becomes mature. At the time of the harvest, the "Jimador" cuts-off the leaves of the Agave, leaving only the core or "pina". The core is crushed to obtain the sap of the plant which is a sweet juice. This juice, which is rich in inulin, is filtered and then spray-dried to produce a fine white powder.
