University of Nottingham: Blending probiotics, prebiotics, and vitamins for immunity and metabolism
28 Nov 2025 | School of Medicine at the University of Nottingham
Amrita Vijay from the School of Medicine at the University of Nottingham, UK, discusses her research highlighting how a synbiotic blend — naturally fermented kefir combined with diverse prebiotic fiber — is significantly more effective at reducing systemic inflammation than single ingredients like omega-3 or fiber. She explains how synbiotics support the production of beneficial metabolites, such as butyrate, which are nourished by the fiber-microbe interaction.
