MSPrebiotic® is the world's best supplement grade unmodified resistant starch from potatoes. This patented natural prebiotic comes from gently dried, peeled potatoes and is grown, processed and packaged in Canada.
MSPrebiotic delivers the highest concentration of prebiotic resistant starch and is the only supplement-grade source available on the market. This patented natural prebiotic comes from gently dried, peeled potatoes, labeled as dietary fiber and is grown, processed and packaged in Canada. MSPrebiotic is supported by over a decade of clinical research demonstrating increases in endogenous healthy bacteria, increases in butyrate, and other improvements.
Most types of starch are digested and broken down by the body, providing a source of glucose. Resistant starch is different because it resists digestion in our stomach and small intestine, and becomes food for the healthy bacteria (probiotics) living in the colon. For these reasons, resistant starch is a prebiotic and confers numerous health benefits by supporting the growth of healthy bacteria.
Historically, resistant starch (RS) was the most widely consumed prebiotic and played an important role in shaping the microbiome. But healthy modern diets delivery only a tiny fraction of the RS levels consumed by our ancestors. MSPrebiotic contains the highest levels of RS available, allowing for easy and effective dietary supplementation.
Customers taking MSPrebiotic for the first time should consider starting at the beginner dose, which is indicated by a small line on the scoop enclosed in the pouch. Some consumers have reported bloating and gas upon beginning MSPrebiotic supplementation, which is a normal, temporary response from your microbiome, and starting with a smaller dose will reduce this risk.
MSPrebiotic is insoluble in liquids, and must be stirred into beverages and then ingested immediately before the prebiotic settles to the bottom of the glass. For example, a single 10g scoop can be mixed into 80mL of water. After consuming, we recommend that you drink an additional 40mL (or more) of water for optimal results. MSPrebiotic can also be added to smoothies, shakes, or yogurt – the choice is up to you! However, MSPrebiotic loses effectiveness when heated over 60°C (140°F), so it is not suitable for cooking, baking, or consumption in hot beverages.
MSPrebiotic is both a prebiotic AND a fiber supplement. Each 10 g dose contains 7 g of dietary fiber – roughly equal to half the amount of fiber that most people get from their diet on a daily basis. This fiber acts as a prebiotic because it resists digestion and feeds healthy bacteria in your colon, supporting your health in numerous ways.
This is an exampMSPrebiotic differs from most energy supplements because it is not converted to glucose after you consume it. Instead, MSPrebiotic passes through your digestive tract to the colon, where healthy bacteria slowly ferment the supplement to generate short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs are a natural energy source and are absorbed into your blood stream to supply energy to the rest of your body. Importantly, SCFAs are produced slowly, gradually entering the body to provide a constant supply of energy – all without impacting your blood sugar.le question?
There are many things you should avoid when taking antibiotics – are prebiotics one of them?
