Pro and Prebiotic
What are pro and prebiotics?
Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria that naturally live in your gut, supporting a healthy digestive system and contributing to overall well-being.
Prebiotics are specific types of fibre that act as food for these good bacteria, helping them grow and function effectively.
Probiotics and prebiotics work together to maintain a balanced gut microbiome, supporting healthy digestion, enhancing immune function and improving overall health.
How do pro and prebiotics work?
Probiotics help replenish healthy bacteria in your gut that may be depleted due to stress, poor diet or antibiotics. These bacteria assist with digestion, nutrient absorption and protection against harmful microbes.
Prebiotics fuel probiotics, providing the nourishment they need to thrive. Together, they create an optimal environment for your gut microbiome.
- Digestive health support
- Better nutrient absorption
- Stronger immune system
- Reduced inflammation
- Improved overall well-being
Why would someone use pro and prebiotics?
Many people benefit from adding probiotics and prebiotics into their routine, especially if they:
- Experience bloating or digestive discomfort
- Have recently taken antibiotics
- Have IBS or irregular bowel movements
- Feel low in energy or frequently unwell
- Want to support immunity and mental well-being
Supporting your gut health can positively affect digestion, mental clarity, skin health, weight management and immune performance.
How does a Vivere gut microbiome test link to pro and prebiotics?
We use advanced testing to analyse the full spectrum of microbes in your gut, including bacteria, fungi and viruses. This detailed analysis helps identify:
- Which beneficial bacteria you may be lacking
- Whether harmful microbes are overgrown
- What digestive or immune functions need support
- How your gut health affects inflammation and metabolism
Using this information, personalised supplement recommendations are provided based on clinical science and your individual microbiome results.
How can you benefit from personalised supplementation?
Generic supplements often fail because they do not address your specific needs. Personalised testing removes the guesswork and ensures the right support for your body.
- Analysis of your exact microbial composition
- Matching supplements to your microbiome
- Science-based personalised recommendations
- Progress tracking over time
