Are Prebiotics the New Superfood? (And Why They're in Our Gummies)

Are Prebiotics the New Superfood? (And Why They're in Our Gummies)

By Kristi Vartanian | July 8, 2025

We’ve all heard of probiotics, but what about prebiotics? They’re the lesser-known gut health hero, and they’re starting to show up in everything from smoothies to granola bars... and yes, even candy.

At TiDBiTS, we’re all about sneaking feel-good ingredients into your favorite treats. So we added plant-based prebiotics to our gummies, and no, it’s not just a wellness buzzword. Here’s why we’re big fans (and why your gut might be too).

🧠 First Things First: What Are Prebiotics?

Prebiotics are a type of plant-based fiber that your body doesn’t digest, but your good gut bacteria love to eat.

Think of them as food for your microbiome. They help healthy bacteria grow and thrive, which can lead to:

  • Better digestion
  • A stronger immune system
  • Even improved mood and brain function (gut-brain connection = real)
    Unlike probiotics (which add bacteria), prebiotics feed the good bacteria you already have. It’s like planting seeds and then giving them sunlight and water.

🌱 Why We Put Prebiotics in Candy

Candy isn’t usually the place you’d expect to find functional ingredients, but we’re not like most candy. We added prebiotics to our gummies because we believe candy should be fun, craveable, and do a little something good for you too.

Our plant-based prebiotics:

  • Come from natural fiber sources
  • Are gentle on the stomach (no sugar alcohol drama)
  • Add a wellness boost without messing with taste or texture
    You’ll never notice they’re there, but your gut will thank you.

😎 Prebiotics Without the Lecture

We’re not here to turn snack time into science class. But if we can give you a treat that tastes like real candy and adds a little benefit for your digestion? That’s a win. So while we’re not calling TiDBiTS a superfood (we’re still candy after all), we did want to make it a little smarter than the average gummy. No trade-offs. No weird ingredients. Just a snack that treats your gut right.

✨ Quick Recap: Why Prebiotics Deserve the Hype

  • ✅ They support gut health by feeding your good bacteria
  • ✅ They may help with digestion, immunity, and mood
  • ✅ They’re in TiDBiTS to make your treat just a little better for you
