The gut microbiota
What we eat also nourishes some of the microorganisms that live within us. Welcome to the world of prebiotics.
THE GUT, OUR SECOND BRAIN
Your gut has its own nervous system and is home to billions of microorganisms. Through neural, immune and metabolic pathways, this inner world communicates continuously with your brain.
The microbiota comprises the microorganisms in the gut. The enteric nervous system contains hundreds of millions of neurons and coordinates digestion.
The vagus nerve and other pathways connect this local activity to the brain in a two-way dialogue shaped by digestion, hunger and satiety.

Substances used by certain microorganisms with a documented benefit. Inulin and oligofructose are among the fibres studied in this field.
PRObiotics
Live microorganisms that provide a benefit in an appropriate amount. Baobab Forte provides inulin and oligofructose, prebiotic fibres that nourish certain gut bacteria.
Vegetables, fruit, pulses and whole grains: a varied plate remains the foundation for your microbiota.
Foods provide different fibres.
Some fibres are fermented in the colon.
This fermentation can produce short-chain fatty acids.
