Vital Nutrients Prebiotic powder - https://rb.gy/0qfpob
Inulin, FOS, GOS can be a bit rough on the systems
Insoluble Fiber (Adds bulk): Whole grains (wheat bran, brown rice, quinoa), vegetables (broccoli, carrots, leafy greens), fruits with skin, nuts, and seeds.
If they have signs of gut inflammation or leaky gut then I add daily capsule of BPC-157
AND drink lots of water!
* Be sure to always check with your physician before doing any of the above, as each case is different.

Forgot to mention VSL#3 probiotic as well
