Description

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are naturally occurring carbohydrates found in plants, widely used as a low-calorie sweetener. FOS consists of oligosaccharides such as GF2, GF3, and GF4, which are composed of fructose units connected by β-(2-1) glycosidic bonds. Unlike regular sugars, FOS bypasses digestion in the upper gastrointestinal tract and reaches the colon, where it serves as a prebiotic by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria.
