Prebiotics: The New Health Trend to Watch In 2019

RENO, Nev., Dec. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --Prebiotics are finding their way to the mainstream health and nutrition discussion, and consumers are looking for simple ways to incorporate them into their lifestyle.

The explosion of new research about the connection between our microbiome and overall health has led to three emerging health and wellness trends for 2019: natural energy, plant-based foods, and probiotics. As consumers learn more about the role of prebiotics and probiotics in gut health, there will be more demand for natural, convenient foods that provide sustainable energy and contain probiotics and prebiotics.

Prebiotics are a soluble fiber, meaning human enzymes cannot digest them. As a result prebiotics serve as food for other microbes, or "good bacteria," and help promote a healthy microbiome.
Prebiotics are naturally found in plants like Jerusalem artichokes, yacon root, chicory root, onions, garlic, and bananas.

While probiotics have enjoyed the limelight in recent years, highlighted as a key ingredient in certain health foods and supplements, prebiotics will see more attention as they become available in healthy snack foods like the bars produced by Rowdy Prebiotic Foods.

"My goal when creating our energy bars was to be nutritionally intentional," explains Rowdy Prebiotic Foods founder Kellie Lee. "After I got sick, I got serious about eating right to feel right. Something many people are subscribing to with eating styles like paleo, keto, or flexitarian."
