Our Price: $15.90Add to Cart
SKU: DL7360-4X

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 provide greater support their gastrointestinal system.*
