Probiotics Ingredient Fructo-Oligosaccharide for Gut Health
Low-calorie sweeteners, or sugar substitutes, can allow people with diabetes to enjoy sweet foods and drinks that do not affect their blood sugar levels. FOS are used primarily as a low-calorie, alternative sweetener. People can eat and drink products made with FOS instead of those containing sugar, which spike glucose levels in the blood, and cause weight gain.
Fructo oligosaccharides (FOS) are a mixture of oligosaccharides (GF2, GF3, GF4), which are composed of fructose units connected by ß (2-1) links. These molecules are terminated by fructose units. The total number of fructose or glucose units (degree of polymerization or DP) of fructo oligosaccharides is mainly between 2-4.
Fructo oligosaccharide (FOS), also known as fructo oligosaccharide, enters the large intestine directly without being digested and absorbed by the body, and rapidly promotes the reproduction of bifidobacteria and other prebiotics in the intestine, so it is also called fructo oligosaccharides - "Bifidus Factor".
Fructo oligosaccharide has a variety of superior physical and chemical properties and physiological functions. It is known as a 21st century healthy new sugar source with nutrition, health care and curative effect. Products with added fructooligosaccharides are more and more popular with consumers.
Widely used in dairy products, health products, functional beverages, solid beverages, candy, biscuits, bread, jelly and other food industries.
Utilized in feed industry, medicine, beauty, and other industries. In Japan, it serves as a bulking agent, sweetener, freshener, and wetting agent. In France, it is approved as a feed additive for livestock.

The factory operates a production line with a high degree of automation and advanced machinery. The production workshop is built in strict accordance with GMP standards, spanning from raw material feeding to product filling. Fully automated processes guarantee a stable production process, state-of-the-art technology, and supreme product quality.
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) are a mixture of oligosaccharides (GF2, GF3, GF4) composed of fructose units connected by ß (2-1) links. FOS cannot be digested or absorbed by the human body directly. Instead, it travels straight to the large intestine, where it rapidly stimulates the growth and activity of prebiotics and beneficial bacteria like bifidobacteria.
Yes. FOS is a low-calorie alternative sweetener that serves as an excellent sugar substitute. It does not cause a spike in blood glucose levels or contribute to weight gain, making it perfectly safe and suitable for diabetics to enjoy in sweet foods and beverages.
FOS is highly versatile and widely applied in dairy products, health supplements, functional and solid beverages, candies, bakery items (like biscuits and bread), and jellies. It is also utilized in animal feed, pharmaceutical applications, cosmetics, and personal care products.
The FOS products carry recognized global credentials including BRC, US FDA, ISO series, IP non-GMO, HALAL, KOSHER, ORGANIC EU/US organic, Japanese organic (JAS), and domestic organic certifications.
Production takes place in a highly automated facility designed under strict GMP standard criteria. Automated control covers every single process from raw material intake up to final product packaging, ensuring highly stable operations, robust sanitary safety, and top-tier product output.
