Re: Dysbiosis and Acacia Gum (Correct Forum?)       11/05/07 05:49 PM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA Hi - prebiotics work by creating short chain fatty acids in the gut, which then provide a hospitable environment for the healthy gut flora. I haven't ever seen any studies that would indicate they'd allow the proliferation of bad gut flora - they should do the opposite, actually, by increasing the good guys. Why'd your doc tell you to stay away from probiotics during treatment? Best, Heather -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
