Probiotic plus fibre.
Psyllium is a gel-forming fibre that adds bulk and regularity, and a portion of it is fermented by gut bacteria, so it supports a healthy microbiome alongside the live cultures in a probiotic.
What to do
A reasonable pairing for regularity and gut health. Drink plenty of water with psyllium so it does not clump, and take it a couple of hours apart from any medication, since its gel can slow drug absorption.
