Olipop, a new-and-popular probiotic soda brand, claims to support gut health through the use of prebiotics and probiotics in their ingredient list.

"(Olipop) will give your body a boost of nutrients to support your overall health."

Are there studies to prove that Olipop is effective in supporting gut health, or is this a well-thought-out marketing tactic?

Olipop has been proven to be good for your gut health. This drink is full of fiber, which plays a critical role in wellness by feeding the microorganisms in your gut. In an article written by NPR, it is mentioned how "fiber does way more than just help keep us regular, it helps control blood sugar levels and lower cholesterol and inflammation." not only will increasing your fiber intake affect your bodily health, it is also proven to positively affect your mental health.
