This Double Chocolate Chia Probiotic Pudding Is Good for the Gut

This chocolate pudding is great for your gut. No really. We know it's hard to believe, but it turns out a classically not-so-healthy treat like chocolate pudding can be a gut-healthy superfood! Well, this chocolate pudding anyways.

It’s absolutely packed full of ingredients that help build and nourish healthy gut flora, things like:

• Our 2-for-1 vanilla probiotic + prebiotic powder featuring 4 of *the* most beneficial strains of probiotics and plant-based prebiotics for overall gut health.
• Raw probiotic chocolate + raw cacao - more probiotics, more prebiotics, and loads of flavonols which have been shown to boost beneficial microbe activity in the gut.
• Chia seeds - These little gelatinous superseeds are packed full of soluble fiber and act like a gentle broom, sweeping out waste and toxins from the GI system. We know, not exactly dinner table talk but we’re all adults here, right?
