Global Prebiotic Association Welcomes Four New Members
The Global Prebiotic Association (GPA), the only global trade association dedicated exclusively to advancing prebiotic science, education, and industry standards, exists to steward the responsible, evidence-based growth of this category. That growth is picking up speed. New research continues to deepen our understanding of prebiotic ingredients, and with increasing cultural awareness of ‘fiber’, more consumers are curious about the contents of their food, drawing more attention to the prebiotic category.
