[RC] Probiotics and Chicory (??) - Lysane CreeI picked up a pamphlet at a horse show awhile back that is an advertisement for "Equine Formula Prebiotic with Inulin & F.O.S. (fructooligosaccarides) provided in natural CHICORY" One of the claims in the pamphlet is the following: "As well, lactic-acid levels and enzyme levels are increased, which serve to maintain a superior ratio of good to bad bacteria. (This is why over time, the dosages are reduced unlike probiotics which simply feed bacteria, and do not promote a self-maintaining state.)" They seem to be saying that this product is like probiotics, but better (and so they distinguish the products by using an "e" and calling it "prebiotic" The company is called "Preobiotics" and has the following website: www.preobiotics.com Anyone using chicory as a source of probiotics??
