Biotic knowledge

What are probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics?

These terms describe different concepts and should not be used interchangeably without suitable evidence.

Probiotic

Live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.

Prebiotic

A substrate that is selectively utilized by host microorganisms and confers a health benefit.

Synbiotic

A mixture of live microorganisms and substrate or substrates selectively utilized by host microorganisms that confers a health benefit on the host.

A product's effect can depend on its strain, amount, and final formulation, so each product claim should be supported by evidence relevant to that product.
