Why Prebiotics? What exactly do they do?
What in the fizzy world are prebiotics?
Pull up a chair, compadre. The Don will explain.
Imagine your gut is like Don Chico’s private cantina- a lively little bar inside your body where all the best bacteria hang out. These good guys are the ones keeping your digestion smooth, your immunity sharp, and your vibes on point.
But even the best party runs out of steam if you don’t feed the guests.
That’s where prebiotics come in.
Prebiotics = The VIP snacks for your gut’s good bacteria.
They’re natural plant fibers, like the ones we use from Chicory Root, Jerusalem Artichoke, Marshmallow Root, and Cassava; fibres that your body can’t digest, but your good bacteria love to munch on.
Think of them as:
- Pizza for the good bugs
- Fuel for your internal fiesta
- The Don’s secret supply of gut gold
And what happens when the gut party is well-fed?
- Digestion? Smooth like a fresh-pressed linen shirt.
- Bloating? The Don don’t allow it.
- Energy? You’re zipping through the day like it’s a rooftop salsa.
- Immunity? Fortified like The Don’s hacienda.
At Don Chico’s, we don’t just fizz for fun.
We lace every can with plant-based prebiotic fiber so your gut stays happy, your mind stays sharp, and your tastebuds don’t know they’re doing something good.
So drink up, mi amigo.
This soda’s got benefits.

What exactly is Don Chico’s Gut Loving Soda?
We are a new age, premium, non-alcoholic, carbonated beverage for a world riddled with unhealthy, gimmicky drinks that are crammed with chemicals. Don Chico's is a prebiotic infused carbonated beverage that's low on sugar while also helping you with your daily dose of dietary fibre (in a cool, less prescription drug manner) We are a solution (quite literally). Sugary, carbonated drinks that taste nothing like a tastefully AND carefully crafted beverage are the problem.
I'm confused now. Probiotics or Prebiotics?
Prebiotics are the ultimate hype crew for your gut, laying down the red carpet, setting the vibe, and making sure the good bacteria (probiotics) have the fuel to keep the party going.
Unlike probiotics, which are the VIP guests, prebiotics do the real work behind the scenes by feeding the good guys so your digestion stays smooth, your immunity stays strong, and your gut stays happy.
And the best part? You now don’t need fermented foods or bland fibre bars to take care of your prebiotic intake. Just sip on Don Chico's Soda With Benefits and let the gut-friendly fiesta begin!
Okay, fair. But what's the point of having fibre in my soda?
Because your gut deserves VIP treatment! We’ve packed our soda with prebiotic fibre from nature’s finest sources; think cassava root, chicory root inulin, Jerusalem artichoke and marshmallow root- all chosen to feed the good bacteria in your gut and keep digestion smooth. Unlike regular sodas that do nothing for your microbiome, ours brings the fizz and the fibre. Because a happy gut = a happy you!
How does a can of Don Chico's benefit my gut?
Well, a thriving gut (referred to as the microbiome) is where different key hormones and vitamins are produced. These hormones & vitamins are vital to both, your physical & mental health. This is what you need to know: a healthy microbiome ultimately leads to a healthy & happy you. In short, Don Chico's aids you in digestion & ensures that you have a healthy gut (apart from being the tastiest fizzy drink out there of course). No funny, gimmicky tall claims. Just a tastefully crafted beverage that's here to ensure that you have one less thing to worry about.
Is Don Chico's Gluten Free & Vegan?
Yes, and yes! Sip on & embark on a guilt free yet flavourful adventure!
Is Don Chico's anything like Kombucha?
No. Kombucha walks so we can run. While kombucha brings the funk with its fermented tang, our prebiotic soda keeps it fresh, fizzy, and full of gut-loving goodness—no mystery floaties, no vinegar vibes, just a smooth, delicious way to fuel your microbiome. Cheers to gut health, minus the kombucha culture shock!
Will consuming Don Chico's Soda prove to be bad for my teeth?
Nah, our prebiotic soda is more like a charm for your gut, not a crime scene for your enamel. Teeth largely go bad either because of the sugar content or acids in most fizzy drinks (we aren't taking any names here!) Don Chico's on the other hand: no harsh acids, no sneaky sugars—just a smooth, refreshing sip that keeps both your taste buds and your teeth smiling!
