Collection: Probiotics & Prebiotics

The human gut contains more microbial cells than there are human cells in the body. This community, the microbiome, influences digestion, immune function, metabolism, skin and even mood. The Welzo Ultra Purity Probiotics & Prebiotics collection is dedicated to it: a next-generation probiotic strain at one of the highest concentrations available, the prebiotic fiber that feeds beneficial bacteria, and the bundles that combine the two into a complete microbiome routine.

Probiotics versus prebiotics

The two terms are often confused. Probiotics are live beneficial microorganisms consumed to support the bacterial community in the gut. Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers and compounds that beneficial bacteria feed on. A probiotic without a prebiotic is like planting seeds without watering them; the most effective microbiome routines combine both. Diversity is generally considered the key marker of a resilient microbiome, and specific species have become the focus of intense research. For the broader digestive picture, see Gut Health & Digestion.

Akkermansia: a next-generation probiotic

Akkermansia muciniphila is one of the most studied gut bacteria of the past decade. Unlike familiar Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains that pass through the gut, Akkermansia lives in the mucus layer lining the intestinal wall, where it is studied for its relationship with gut-barrier integrity, metabolic markers and overall microbiome balance. Until recently it was extremely difficult to produce commercially, which is why most probiotic products do not contain it. Welzo Ultra Purity Akkermansia delivers 60 billion AFU (active fluorescent units) per serving in a stable capsule.

How to choose

Akkermansia is the product most customers start with and the one with the most distinctive research. Add modified citrus pectin to feed it, or choose the Gut Reset Bundle for the complete probiotic, prebiotic and gut-lining routine. The GLP-1 Companion Stack suits anyone whose interest in the microbiome is driven by appetite, weight or blood sugar. Because the microbiome also trains the immune system, many customers in Immune Health begin here.

Frequently asked questions

What does AFU mean?

Active fluorescent units are a measure of live, metabolically active bacterial cells, counted by flow cytometry. It is considered a more precise measure of viability than the older colony-forming unit (CFU) count.
