Digestive support
DESCRIPTION
FOS Powder, produced by Douglas Laboratories, supplies 3,000 mg of fructooligosaccharides per serving.
FUNCTIONS
Prebiotics are carbohydrates that have short molecular chains. They function as non-digestible
ingredients that can positively affect selected groups of beneficial intestinal microflora, such as
lactobacillus. While probiotics merely add beneficial microflora, prebiotics affect the intestinal
environment so that beneficial colonies of microflora can flourish. By aiding the beneficial microflora's survival, pathogenic microflora can have a decreased chance of survival.
INDICATIONS
FOS powder may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals wishing to support their gastrointestinal system.
