Fructo-Oligo-Saccharides (FOS), or referred to as fructans, oligosaccharides, oligofructose and inulin, are complex carbohydrates found in several common foods and myriad medicinal herbs. Fructans taste sweet (1/4 the sweetness of sugar) however unlike sugar and starch, they add no calories to food because they are not digested by stomach enzymes or acids.

 Fructo-oligosaccharide is a new healthy sugar source. Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) is a food ingredient naturally occurring in honey, fruits and plants. It is a natural soluble vegetable fiber with a low caloric value and patient-friendly. It has the function of cleaning intestines, good multiplication effect of beneficial bacteria, enhancing immunity.  

The physical and chemical character of FOS

FOS is fermented by the colonicmicroflora. It promotes the growth of Bifidobacteria, improves the composition of the intestinal flora and decreases the blood cholesterol content. FOS can be a dietary supplement, it is widely used in yogurt, bakery, functional and dietetic food, pills, liquors and etc..

1.It has two-way regulation to balance the micro-ecology in intestine. FOS is remarkable in promoting reproduction of Bifidobactirium, it directly enters into large intestine without being absorbed by human stomach and small intestine and is used by Bifidobactititum for reproduction; It cannot be utilized by harmful bacteria in intestine ,so as to suppress harmful bacteria 

2. The FOS does not be decomposed amylase, sucrose invertase and maltase; cannot be used as energy by human body; will not lead to elevated blood sugar level, suitable for patients with diabetes and obesity are edible.

3.Purgation. Fructo-oligosaccharides in the human body should not be digested and absorbed.
