Dear Praveen55, the link you sent was extremely helpful to learn about the difference between the two. Frankly, I was always confused about it. Thank you.

Prebiotics: a non-digestible food ingredient that promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the intestines.

Probiotics are microorganisms that are claimed to provide health benefits when consumed.

This sort of answer that was expected. Thank you.

Probiotic is the bacteria that we need in our gut and prebiotic is what feeds those bacteria.
