Fructooligosaccharides: Overview

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are short-chain carbohydrates composed of fructose molecules, commonly found in fruits, vegetables, and plants like chicory root. They are classified as prebiotics, meaning they support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, especially Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli. FOS are not digested by human enzymes, allowing them to reach the colon intact where they are fermented by the gut microbiota. This process aids in improving digestive health, enhancing immune function, and supporting nutrient absorption. Additionally, FOS have a slightly sweet taste and are often used as a low-calorie sugar substitute in functional foods. Regular intake may help relieve constipation and promote a balanced gut environment without spiking blood sugar levels.
