Hi all!
I have a question about probiotics: most seem to contain a prebiotic, either inulin or maltodextrin. I definitely want to avoid those containing maltodextrin after reading articles posted here that it creates a biofilm that pathogenic bacteria are able to use as a shield to protect themselves. Does anyone know whether inulin produces the same effect? Or if its harmful in some other way?
I appreciate any pointers on this topic.
