Prebiotic+™ - resistant starch complex by Natural Stacks
Prebiotic+™ is a resistant starch supplement in powder form. Prebiotics are a class of indigestible starchy plant fiber. This formula contains unmodified potato starch, unripe banana flour, European chicory root (Inulin-FOS), trehalose and ceylon cinnamon. Resistant starch passes through the digestive system down to the colon largely intact. There, gut bacteria ferment these prebiotics into beneficial short-chain fatty acids, acetate, propionate and butyrate.

Easy to use
Prebiotic+™ is very easy to use. Start the first week with 1 tablespoon of powder and mix it in 250 ml of cold water or in your favorite smoothie or shake. In the second week, increase the dose to 2 tablespoons per day. Preferably take the product in the evening.
Unmodified potato starch
Non-modified potato starch contains the highest concentrations of resistant starch. The potato starch in Prebiotic+™ is naturally made from European potatoes and is of high quality. Production takes place through a gentle watering and filtration process.
Flour from green bananas
Banana flour is made from the pulp of unripe bananas before the sugars are formed in this tropical fruit. Green banana flour has high nutritional value as it is rich in potassium, vitamins, minerals and resistant starch.
Inulin FOS
Inulin-FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides) is found in many different vegetables and consists of short and long chain fructose molecules that provide nutrition for beneficial gut bacteria. Prebiotic+™ contains Orafti ®Synergy1 InulinFOS, made from European chicory root. Inulin FOS are also effective prebiotic fibers.
Trehalose
Trehalose is also known as mushroom sugar because it naturally occurs in mushrooms. Seeds, algae and some desert plants also contain this unique form of sugar. Trehalose is half as sweet as sucrose (table sugar) and has a very low glycemic index value.
Ceylon Cinnamon
This formula also contains Ceylon cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is the true form of cinnamon and is very rich in antioxidants. Ceylon cinnamon is extracted from the bark of the cinnamon tree, Cinnamomum verum. These trees grow best in a tropical climate. Cinnamon originally hails from Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, hence the name. There is also another type of cinnamon from the Cinnamomum cassia. Cassia cinnamon, however, is high in coumarin, a potentially harmful substance.
Prebiotic+™: A complete prebiotic
Prebiotic+™ is a completely resistant starch complex in which the combination of the different forms of prebiotics provides the powerful effect. Prebiotics are suitable for any diet, even ketogenic diets. Prebiotics are also called soluble or fermentable dietary fibers. Insoluble or non-fermentable dietary fiber is known for stimulating bowel movements.
Fermentation of prebiotics
Prebiotic fibers are not digestible and therefore have no direct nutritional value. They pass through the stomach and the upper part of the small intestine intact. In the lower part of the small intestine and in the large intestine, the fiber is fermented by different types of bacteria and yeast. From this a series of substances is produced that can be reused by humans. These include vitamins, endocannabinoids and short chain fatty acids such as butyrate, lactate, acetate and propionate.
Hydrogen is also produced
In addition to short-chain fatty acids, fiber consumption also produces gases such as hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Hydrogen, together with oxygen, is deeply intertwined with the origin of life on earth and its evolution. The balance of oxygen and hydrogen as an antioxidant, that is, of oxidation and reduction, is essential in living organisms.
Synbiotic combination of pre- and probiotics
Finally, we like to point out what is known as the synbiotic combination of pre- and probiotics. This product combines well with probiotic products. The effects of a synbiotic combination exceed those of a single intake of either prebiotics or probiotics.
