Wang et al. (2019) showed ginger selectively promotes beneficial gut bacteria while inhibiting pathogens. That's the definition of a prebiotic.

What Ginger Does to Your Gut

Promotes: Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium → short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) → stronger gut barrier, better immunity, less inflammation.

Inhibits: Clostridium perfringens, E. coli enterotoxigenic → less gas, less bloating, less intestinal inflammation.

Repairs: NF-κB suppression + Nrf2 activation at the mucosal level → tighter junctions → less bacterial toxin (LPS) leaking into blood → less systemic inflammation.

The Turmeric Amplifier

Curcumin independently increases microbiome diversity and reduces gut inflammation. INTI combines both with black pepper (2000% absorption).

Sugar: The Anti-Prebiotic

Excess sugar feeds gas-producing bacteria (Clostridium, Klebsiella) at the expense of Lactobacillus. A ginger shot with 33g sugar/100ml worsens the dysbiosis it claims to fix.

INTI: 1.1g sugar.…
