Dietary supplement. Fructooligosaccharides. Probiotic enhancer. Source Naturals FOS is a complex of fructooligsaccharides (FOS) - a group of naturally occurring carbohydrates which can help promote the growth of beneficial flora in the gastrointestinal tract. The body normally maintains a balance of friendly flora in the intestines; unfortunately factors such as improper diet, stress, gastrointestinal problems and use of antibiotics may disrupt this delicate balance. FOS are long chain sugars which are indigestible by humans, but serve as the food for friendly flora, helping increase their numbers in the body. Scientific research conducted in Japan has shown that FOS are selectively used by friendly flora such as bifid bacteria and lactobacilli, while they are not usable by harmful bacteria (These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
