Would you answer the question whether there needs to be commas surrounding the word "Inulin" in the following statement:

"Advanced Probiotic synergistically combines 6 genetically distinct and beneficial probiotic strains and the prebiotic, Inulin, to support probiotic activity in the intestines."

@marks grammar,
Sorry . . .

Yes, commas are needed to offset that word.

@marks grammar,
could that word be insulin? I know of no English word called 'inulin'.

@Ragman,
But you fight and whine and bitch and moan when your idiotic notions on English are pointed up to you, Ragman. Why might that be?
