What is Organic FOS Syrup?
Organic FOS Syrup is a naturally derived, organic prebiotic sweetener made from non-GMO plants such as chicory or Jerusalem artichoke. Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are a group of short-chain carbohydrates that are not digested by the body but can act as food for beneficial gut bacteria, supporting gut health and digestive balance. This syrup offers a mildly sweet taste and is an excellent alternative to traditional sugars, with added health benefits such as supporting digestion, enhancing immune function, and promoting overall gut health.
Production Process:
- Sourcing: Sourced from organic chicory or Jerusalem artichoke, grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers.
- Extraction: The FOS is extracted through a water-based process that ensures the retention of all prebiotic properties.
- Concentration: After extraction, the syrup is concentrated to achieve the desired viscosity while preserving the purity and bioactivity of the fructooligosaccharides.
- Purification & Filtration: The syrup undergoes stringent purification to remove impurities and ensure a high-quality end product that meets the required specifications.
- Quality Control: Multiple quality checks are performed throughout the production process to ensure consistency, safety, and purity.
Key Features:
- Prebiotic Benefits: FOS acts as a food source for beneficial gut bacteria, supporting digestive health and enhancing the balance of the gut microbiota.
- Low Glycemic Index: FOS syrup has a low glycemic index, making it suitable for people with diabetes or those managing their blood sugar levels.
- Natural Sweetener: Offers a mild sweetness, making it a healthier alternative to refined sugars, with fewer calories and a lower glycemic impact.
- 100% Organic & Non-GMO: Made from certified organic, non-GMO chicory or Jerusalem artichoke, ensuring a clean label and natural origin.
