Ingredients that help support a healthy gut microbiome and a healthy digestive system.
Health, well-being and the gut
Consumers are more health-conscious than ever and recognise that different aspects of their health are interlinked and impact each other, both mentally and physically.
At the same time as this shift in the consumer mindset, scientific research has made it increasingly apparent that overall health and well-being is founded on good gut health.1
The need to improve gut health is also understood by consumers: 2 in 3 recognise that gut health is key to achieving overall well-being.2

How consumers are choosing to support their gut health
86% of global consumers stated they have taken steps to improve their digestive health, including exercising more, making changes to their diet or using dietary supplements.3
This trend has led to a rise in demand for dietary supplements in formats such as gummies and powders, and functional food and drink in formats such as shots, bars and vitamin drinks.
Prebiotics4 are good examples of scientifically backed ingredients which can be combined with other ingredients such as probiotics5, or vitamins and minerals, to unlock multiple health benefits and meet the rising consumer need for a more holistic approach to health.

The central role gut microbiota play in supporting gut health
Gut microbiota, the thousands of microbes encompassed within our gastro-intestinal tract, play a key role in both health and disease.6 Our gut microbiota are influenced by several factors, such as our age, exercise regime, our stress levels and the medications we take (particularly antibiotics). However, by targeting the gut microbiota through nutrition, it is possible to positively influence gut health.7
Prebiotics, substrates that are selectively utilised by host microorganisms, conferring a health benefit, show great promise in supporting gut health. Our Biotis® GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides), for example, have been shown to influence gut microbiota composition8-12 producing beneficial effects on gut health8,12-14 and mental well-being.9
