    Feature

    Fructooligosaccharides FOS is a kind of prebiotic, a functional oligosaccharide, and also a good water-soluble dietary fiber. Its sweetness is 30%-60% of sucrose, but its sweetness is more refreshing and pure than sucrose. The difference between the two is that inulin has a high degree of polymerization and a long sugar chain, while oligofructose has a low degree of polymerization.
    FOS has excellent physiological functions and has passed GRAS certification as a functional oligosaccharide, so it is widely used as a health food ingredient. In industry, it can be produced by enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, and chemical enzyme methods.

    Are fructooligosaccharides good for you?

    Used in health products, dairy products, beverages, condiments, wine, and candy.
    For example, for baked goods. Fructooligosaccharides have low calorific value, good thermal stability, and have the characteristics of inhibiting starch aging, and can be added to baked goods such as biscuits and bread.

    1. Fructooligosaccharides are beneficial to intestinal health. It has the function of regulating intestinal flora and promoting the proliferation of beneficial bacteria such as bifidobacteria.
    2. It is rich in dietary fiber and is beneficial for controlling blood lipids. It can reduce serum cholesterol and blood lipid concentrations and regulate blood lipid health.
    3. FOS can also produce short-chain fatty acids, improve insulin sensitivity, and thus achieve the effect of lowering blood sugar.
