“Prebiotics,” probably less well-known than probiotics but rapidly gaining name recognition, are fiber compounds that feed probiotic bacteria, keeping them happy and thriving in your digestive tract. While prebiotics are, like probiotics, available in capsules that can be ingested and powders that can be added to food, you can also get them directly from your diet. Meals packed with beauty foods happen to be an excellent foundation for the prebiotics that complement a healthy gut (and clear, glowing skin). Specific prebiotic-rich beauty foods include asparagus, bananas, chicories, garlic, greens, oats, onions, leeks, and sunchokes.
