Description
Prebiotic fiber, also known as Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), are compounds that occur naturally in plants such as onions, chicory, garlic, asparagus, among others, and are metabolized by beneficial intestinal bacteria.
Prebiotic Fiber Herbolario S. Mediterránea is the former FOS. It is the same product, only the name and label have changed.
Prebiotic fiber—fructooligosaccharides—is considered to improve health because it stimulates the growth of intestinal bacteria, counteracting the effect of harmful bacteria and strengthening the immune system.
Prebiotic fiber, FOS, is especially beneficial in cases of:
- Osteoporosis
- Abdominal bloating
- Gas and colic
- Constipation, diarrhea
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- High cholesterol
