The science is clear: probiotics work better when paired with prebiotics. Yet most people take one or the other and get disappointing results. Probiotics alone don't colonise well or stay long. Prebiotics alone feed any bacteria, not just the good ones. Together, they work as a synbiotic formula that actually rebuilds your microbiome. Here's what research shows.

## How it works

1. **Probiotics & Prebiotics for Gut Health** — Balance gut bacteria and improve digestion with beneficial probiotics and nourishing prebiotics.
2. **Natural Digestive Support** — NAC and psyllium husk support detox, promoting toxin elimination and enhanced digestion.
3. **Fiber for Regularity** — Soluble fiber from psyllium husk helps regulate bowel movements and supports healthy digestion.
4. **Gentle Digestive Support** — The formula gently supports colon cleansing, promoting regularity without harsh side effects.

## 1. Prebiotics increase probiotic survival and establishment

**Who it's for:** Anyone who's taken probiotics before and felt they didn't work.

Probiotics face a hostile environment. Stomach acid, bile, and competition all work against them. Prebiotics create conditions where they're more likely to survive the journey and settle in your gut successfully.

**Why it matters:** Prebiotic fibres create conditions where probiotics survive and establish in your gut.

**Tip:** If probiotics haven't worked before, the difference this time will be obvious by week two.

## 2. Inulin specifically feeds the exact bacteria you're trying to restore

**Who it's for:** People trying to increase beneficial probiotic strains.

Not all prebiotics feed the same bacteria. Inulin is selective; it preferentially feeds the strains you're trying to establish. This selectivity matters because it tips the balance in favour of good bacteria faster.

**Why it matters:** Inulin is the prebiotic that preferentially feeds beneficial probiotic strains.

**Tip:** This is why generic fibre doesn't work as well; it feeds any bacteria, not just the beneficial ones.

## 3. Konjac Fibre improves bacterial colonisation rate

**Who it's for:** Anyone who needs their probiotics to establish and stay long-term.

Probiotics need to attach to your gut lining to stay. Just passing through doesn't help. Konjac Fibre creates the right environment for probiotics to grab hold and establish themselves permanently.

**Why it matters:** Konjac Fibre creates conditions in your gut that help probiotics attach and colonise.

**Tip:** Colonisation improvements are invisible but real; you'll notice by the steadiness of your results.

## 4. Together they produce more short-chain fatty acids than either alone

**Who it's for:** Anyone with colon sluggishness, irregular bowel movements, or a backed-up feeling.

Short-chain fatty acids are the fuel your colon runs on. Probiotics produce it, but only if they have prebiotic fibre to ferment. More fibre plus more bacteria equals more fuel for your colon. Your digestion gets stronger and more regular.

**Why it matters:** Probiotics fermenting prebiotic fibre produce more short-chain fatty acids.

**Tip:** Use consistently as part of your daily routine for best results on regularity.

## 5. The pair creates a stronger gut barrier than either alone

**Who it's for:** Anyone looking to support their digestive wellness and energy levels.

Probiotics produce compounds that strengthen your gut lining, but they're more effective when they have steady prebiotic food. The combination creates a stronger barrier and supports your digestive comfort.

**Why it matters:** Probiotics with prebiotics strengthen your gut barrier more effectively than probiotics alone.

**Tip:** Barrier improvements take 2–3 weeks but reduce food reactions noticeably.

## 6. They work together to outcompete pathogenic bacteria

**Who it's for:** Anyone recovering from food poisoning, traveller's issues, or dysbiosis.

It's not just about adding good bacteria. The combination of multiple strains plus their preferred food creates conditions where harmful bacteria can't survive. It's ecological dominance through strength and resources.

**Why it matters:** Multi-strain probiotics plus prebiotics create an environment where harmful bacteria cannot compete.

**Tip:** Recovery from travel or food upset usually takes 1–2 weeks with full synbiotic support.

## 7. Consistency matters most, and one product ensures you don't skip either

**Who it's for:** Anyone who wants to simplify their supplement routine and actually stick with it.

The best synbiotic formula is the one you take consistently. MOJO DETOX removes the friction of remembering two separate products, so you never accidentally take probiotics without prebiotics or fibre without bacteria.

**Why it matters:** MOJO DETOX Gummies combine probiotics and prebiotics in one gummy.

**Tip:** Habit consistency is the biggest predictor of success; one gummy is easier to stick with than capsules.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is there research showing probiotics plus prebiotics work better?

Yes. Dozens of studies show synbiotic formulas deliver faster microbiome rebalance, better bacterial colonisation, and more sustained results than either component alone.

### How much Inulin and Konjac is in MOJO DETOX?

Each gummy contains a clinically effective blend of both Inulin and Konjac Fibre, calibrated to feed your probiotics without causing gas or urgency.

### Why not just add fibre to my diet instead of a prebiotic?

Regular fibre is good, but it feeds all bacteria indiscriminately. Prebiotic fibres like Inulin and Konjac preferentially feed beneficial bacteria, tipping the balance faster.

### How long before the synbiotic effect shows?

Many people notice improvements in how they feel with consistent daily use over 2–3 weeks.

### Can I take MOJO DETOX with other probiotics?

You can, but MOJO DETOX is designed to be complete. Adding another probiotic may create redundancy.

### What makes this different from other probiotic plus fibre combinations?

MOJO DETOX combines multi-strain probiotics with selective prebiotics specifically formulated to feed and establish those strains most effectively.

### How does the subscription work and how do I cancel?

Your first order is £12.97 for the first 28 days, then £34.97 every 28 days. You can cancel any time.
