While these colorful cans are taking over our feeds (and our Trader Joe’s carts), we wanted to see if they actually live up to the gut-health hype.
The short answer: Not really 😅 But they may be a healthier alternative to traditional soda, with about 35g less sugar and a boost of prebiotic fiber to feed your gut microbes.
To reap the benefits of prebiotics, the recommended daily dose is 2.5-10 grams of prebiotics.
However, side effects may include gas, bloating, Gl discomfort, or even diarrhea (especially with high doses). While prebiotic sodas may be a good swap for regular soda, it's not the only thing you can do to take care of your gut. When it comes to keeping your gut healthy, it’s important to focus on eating a variety of fiber-rich foods and fermented foods.
Have you made the switch to prebiotic sodas? And which one are you grabbing first? 🥤
