New Study: Prebiotin Primary Ingredient May Stop Cancer Cells

Study, as reported in British Journal of Medicine, says Oligofructose-Enriched-Inulin - the exact prebiotic used in Prebiotin - may prevent the growth, and promote the death of cancer cells in the colon. In the Journal's peer-reviewed article, we learn that human colon cells representing early and late stages of colon cancer were exposed to short chain fatty acids - produced during the fermentation of prebiotic fiber. The early stage cells “responded more sensitively”, according to the research results.

The research was conducted by incubating bacterial samples with Oligofructose-Enriched Inulin (OEI).

OEI, the exact prebiotic used in Prebiotin, is a natural, plant-derived compound of oligofructose and inulin together. Unlike plain inulin, which ferments mostly in the right-hand side of the colon, OEI creates beneficial bacteria fermentation and production of short-chain fatty acids throughout the colon. Most prebiotic products and supplements use plain inulin, a far cheaper ingredient than OEI.

The researchers note: “Since early [cancer] cells were found to be more sensitive, this may have important implications for chemoprevention when translated to the in vivo situation, because survival of early transformed cells could be reduced,”

Even beyond this latest study, there is more peer-reviewed clinical research that suggests the relationship between prebiotics and colon cancer.

One study says "Probiotics and Prebiotics have the potential to impact significantly on the development, progression and treatment of colorectal cancer and may have a valuable role in cancer prevention."

Yet another states: "There is substantial experimental evidence to suggest that probiotics and prebiotics may be beneficial in the prevention and treatment of colon cancer."

One more states: "Dietary synbiotics reduce cancer risk factors in polypectomized and colon cancer patients."

Prebiotin contains the exact prebiotic ingredient used in this latest study which "suggests that the intake of prebiotic dietary fibres...protects against colorectal cancer."

For those seeking to add prebiotics to their diet, Prebiotin suggests consumers seek a supplement which does not add excess fat, calories or sugar, which contains a full-spectrum prebiotic, not just cheap inulin, and which is manufactured under the FDA's "GMP" guidelines in a certified facility.
