2/27
o The concept of of prebiotic was introduced by Gibbson &
Roberfroid in 1995 .
o Probiotics and prebiotics in the diet can modify the
composition and metabolic activites of microflora.
o Prebiotics can be defined as non-digestible food ingredients
or fiber that beneficially affect the body by selectively
stimulating the growth and/or activity of a limited number of
bacteria in the colon.
o Microflora of the intestine complete digestion through
fermantation, protect against pathogenic bacteria and
stimulate the immune system
3/27
o Probiotic candidates, are live microbial food supplements.
o Non-pathogenic and non-toxigenic
o Retain viability during storage and survive passage through
the stomach &small bowel.
o capable of colonizing the intestinal tract to influence
human health.
Eg. Lactic Acid Bacteria ( LAB), Bifi dobacteria spp .
4/27
o Prevent potentially harmful bacteria attaching to gut
lining.
o Reduce the availability of nutrients for potentially harmful
bacteria.
o Improve mucous production form cell lining the gut.
o Ongoing support of the immune system.
o Bring down the pH in the colon.
5/27
o Improvement of lactose intolerance and other enzymatic
effects.
o Antibiotic associated diarrhoea.
o Gastroenteritis.
o Inflammatory bowel disease.
o Intestinal infections and colonisation by pathogenic bacteria.
o Traveller’s diarrhoea.
o Colon cancer.

Prebiotics can be defined as non-digestible food ingredients or
fiber that beneficially affect the body by selectively
stimulating the growth and/or activity of a limited number of
bacteria in the colon.
Eg. Inulin and oligofructose
8/27
 It is assumed that a prebiotic should increase the
number or activity of bifidobacteria and lactic acid
bacteria
 The importance of the bifidobacteria and the lactic
acid bacteria (LABs) is that these groups of bacteria
may have several beneficial effects on the host,
especially in terms of improving digestion.
 prebiotics may thus also act as a bifidogenic factor and
vice versa.
 It should help in increasing the absorption of certain
minerals such as calcium and magnessium.

prebiotics probiotics
Prebiotics non-digestible food ingredients
fiber or carbohydrates
Probiotics live active microraganism that
when administered in adequate amount
will have beneficially to its host.
The powder from prebiotics can survive
heat, cold,acid and even time.
Probiotics are more fragile.they are
vulnerable to heat and stomach acid.
Prebiotics main role by nourishing the
bacteria that lives in intestines.
Probiotics fight the harmful bacterial
speices present in the gut.
Eg. Inulin and oligofructose Lactic Acid Bacteria ( LAB), Bifi dobacteria
10/27
 Prebiotics escape enzymatic digestion in the upper
gastrointestinal tract.
 Not excreted in the stools – indicating fermented by colonic flora
 Produce- a mixture of short-chain fatty acids (acetate,
propionate butyrate), L-lactate, carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
Stimulate Bifidobacteria.
11/27
 Prebiotics are classified as soluble fiber.
 These type of soluble fibers are:
1. Inulin and oligofructose.
2. Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS).
3. Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS).
4. Other oligosaccharides-
12/27
 Raw garlic – 17.5%
 Raw Banana – 1%
 Raw leak - 11.7%
 Raw dandelion greens -24.3%
 Raw onion - 5%
 Raw Asparagus – 5%
 Raw wheat bran - 5%
13//27
• Increase digestion of lactose metabolism.
• Increase mineral absorption.
• Increase HDL/LDL ratio.
• Decrease serum lipids and blood cholesterol.
• Decrease blood pressure.
• Decrease glycemic response.
14/27
 Fructooligosaccharides (FOS)
 The reduction of cholesterol levels and blood glucose
levels, lowering of blood pressure.
 FOS are not digested by the human gastrointestinal
tract, and when they reach the colon, they
beneficially.
 stimulate the growth and strengthening of specific
bacteria in the intestine.
15/27
 Stimulation of the immune system of the host.
 Constipation relief.
 Decreased risk of osteoporosis.
 A reduced risk of atherosclerosis.
 Increasing stool weight in bowel movements.
 Increasing the frequency of bowel movements.
 Inulin has anticarcinogenic properties.
16/27
 Polydextrose is partially fermented in the large
intestine.
 Stimulating effect on the growth of Bifidobacterium .
 The addition of the inulin/GOS mixture were
demonstrated in several studies with infants and
children as the in creasing of the faecal percentage
of Bifidobacteria.
17/27
 Promotes the proliferation of bifidobacteria and the
reduction of deteriorating bacteria .
 Thus causing beneficial effects to human health,
such as liver detoxification by the reduction of toxic
metabolites .
 Prevention of pathogenic diarrhea.
 On abdominal pain.
18/27
 Effects on the intestinal flora.
 Most species of Lactobacillus used XOS, including
Lactobacillus Fermentum.
 Incresing digestibility.
 Function and nutritional parameters in elderly.
patients suggested a XOS
19/27
 In a study of the incorporation of 0.5% of lactulose in
formulations for infants.
 Long-standing liver cirrhosis, the administrationof
milk fermented with bifidobacteria and lactulose
resulted in the re-stabilization of beneficial
microbiota
 Reduction of ammonia and free phenols in the
blood.
 Used in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy.
20/27
 Lack of fiber will create more problems.
 For making prebiotics for the elderly suffer mainly
from constipation,lactose intolerance and calcium
absorption.
 The main thing prebiotics do is feed the probiotics
bacteria thus keeps our diagestive system healthy and
increase the immunity of the body.
21/27
 Many baby food manufactures are adding prebiotics
and probiotics to food.
 Infection cause in infant is diarrhea.
 They can be cured by brest milk contain the
bifidobacterium which is good for growth of good
bacteria in the colon.
 Prebiotics product can be given to the infant after the
doctor recommendation.

24/27
 The various studies in clinical nutrition conducted over
the past 20 years have established the indirect prebiotic
ingredients in promoting healthy and balanced intestinal
microbita.
 The administration of prebiotics reduce blood lipids and
blood pressure, increases the synthesis and absorption of
nutrients and has anti-carcinogenic.
 Prebiotics show interesting properties that have
implications for the food processing industry.
