The common good bacteria in our gut, Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli, are key beneficiaries of inulin, which improves digestion by slowing it down and giving our digestive system time to process nutrients.
The Healthline article claims inulin also fends off unwanted pathogens (bad bacteria), prevents infection, stimulates your immune system, processs calcium, controls blood sugar, and lowers risk of colon cancer.
You can find inulin in so many common herbs and vegetables, as described in this article by Candida Diet on prebiotics, https://www.thecandidadiet.com/10-prebiotic-foods-for-amazing-gut-health/ .
