Garlic, Onions and Leeks<\/span><\/h3>\n

Garlic<\/strong> and onions<\/strong> contain about 10% inulin and 6% FOS. Leeks<\/strong>, from the same family as garlic and onions, contain up to 16% inulin.<\/p>\n

Apples and Bananas<\/span><\/h3>\n

Interestingly, these two very popular fruits are both high in prebiotic fibre. Apples<\/strong> contain pectin, which increases butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid that feeds the beneficial gut bacteria and decreases the population of harmful bacteria. Bananas<\/strong> are rich in vitamins, minerals and fibre, small amounts of which are the prebiotic inulin. Unripe (green) bananas are also high in resistant starch, which has prebiotic effects.<\/p>\n

Jerusalem artichokes<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Jerusalem artichoke is also known as the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153earth apple\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. It provides about 2 grams of dietary fibre per 100 grams, 76% of which comes from inulin.<\/p>\n

Cruciferous vegetables<\/span><\/h3>\n

Cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and similar greens contain the prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS).<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Wholegrains<\/span><\/h3>\n

Barley<\/strong> contains 3\u00e2\u20ac\u201c8 grams of prebiotic beta-glucan fibre per 100 grams.
\nOats<\/strong> contain large amounts of beta-glucan fibre, too, as well as resistant\u00c2\u00a0starch.
\nWheat bran<\/strong> is the outer layer of the whole wheat grain. It is an excellent source of prebiotics, with a special type of fibre called arabinoxylan oligosaccharides (AXOS). AXOS fibre represents about 65% of wheat bran\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s fibre content.<\/p>\n

Flax seeds<\/span><\/h3>\n

Flaxseeds are a great source of prebiotics. They contain 20\u00e2\u20ac\u201c40% soluble fibre from mucilage gums and 60\u00e2\u20ac\u201c80% insoluble fibre from cellulose and lignin.
\nThe fibre in flaxseeds promotes healthy gut bacteria, promotes regular bowel movements and reduces the amount of dietary fat you digest and absorb.<\/p>\n

Seaweed<\/span><\/h3>\n

Seaweed (marine algae) is rarely eaten, except, of course, in Japan \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and in Wales as \u00e2\u20ac\u02dclaverbread\u00e2\u20ac\u2122. However, it is a very potent prebiotic food.<\/p>\n

Roots \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Chicory, Burdock, Konjac, Jicama, Yacon<\/span><\/h3>\n

High in prebiotic fibre such as inulin, FOS and glucomannan.<\/p>\n

Cocoa<\/span><\/h3>\n

Flavanol-containing cocoa has powerful prebiotic benefits associated with the growth of healthy gut bacteria. It also has benefits for the heart. Be careful about adding too much sugar, though!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
