The GNC Prebiotics Caps/Caplets use a specialized prebiotic fiber formulation (for example, the “Prebiotic GOS” version uses a galactooligosaccharides (GOS) blend) to support gut-health by feeding beneficial gut microbes.
According to GNC’s website, prebiotics are “special plant fibers that help healthy bacteria grow in your gut.”
One variant lists “BiMuno® B-GOS” as the prebiotic ingredient, which has been studied for promoting healthy bacteria growth and improving digestive comfort and regularity.
Serving instructions: In one listing, 2 caplets daily is suggested.
Key Benefits
Here are five benefits the product is designed to provide:
- Feeds beneficial gut bacteria — The prebiotic fibers in the formula act as food for “good” microbes in the intestines, helping them flourish.
- Supports digestive and gut-health — By supporting the balance of gut flora and helping microbial activity, it may promote better digestion, comfort and regularity.
- May improve digestive comfort & reduce bloating — The formulation (BiMuno® B‐GOS) has been mentioned by GNC as “clinically shown to improve … digestive comfort, regularity and bloating in as little as 7 days.”
- Helps establish a healthy gut environment — By promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, it can support a healthier digestive system ecosystem, which may have downstream effects (absorption, immune function).
- Convenient supplemental fiber source — For people who may not get enough prebiotic fiber in their diet (foods like garlic, onions, artichoke, legumes) the caplet offers a convenient way to support gut‐microbiome health.
