Global Short Chain Fructo-oligosaccharides Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Short chain fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) is a kind of prebiotic. It is not digested in the small intestine, and is fermented by the flora into short chain fatty acids in the colon. The content of Short Chain Fructo-oligosaccharides naturally present in different plant products is low. Because of its prebiotic properties, sensory properties and technical properties, it has attracted much attention as a food ingredient.

FOS selectively promotes the colonization of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus in the digestive tract, inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria, improves the intestinal flora, and indirectly achieves nutrition and growth-promoting effects on the human body. FOS can promote the formation of B vitamins and folic acid, maintain the normal function of the nervous system, and promote digestion and metabolism. It can also cleanse the intestines and detoxify, moisten the intestines and lax, prevent and treat constipation and hemorrhoids. It can also prevent rectal and colon cancer, reduce liver toxins, and enhance human immunity.
