What is Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) Powder?
Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are a class of prebiotic compounds primarily composed of plant-derived galactose units. They are renowned for their exceptional ability to selectively stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the human colon, making them a top-choice prebiotic ingredient for gut health formulations.
In the B2B ingredient landscape, GOS Powder stands out for its excellent stability, solubility, and mild taste, which allows for easy integration into a wide range of end products without compromising flavor or texture. It is a cornerstone for developing advanced nutritional solutions that cater to the growing consumer demand for digestive wellness.
The Efficacy of GOS Powder
As a powerful prebiotic ingredient, GOS Powder offers multiple proven health benefits:
- Promotes Digestive Health: Selectively nourishes beneficial gut bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, helping to maintain a healthy gut microbiome balance.
- Supports Immune Function: A healthy gut is linked to a robust immune system. By fostering beneficial gut flora, GOS contributes to overall immune defense.
- Enhances Mineral Absorption: Studies indicate that GOS can improve the bioavailability and absorption of essential minerals like calcium and magnesium.
- Ideal for Infant Nutrition: Closely mimics the prebiotic oligosaccharides found in human breast milk, making it a key GOS powder for infant formula to support the developing gut of infants.
- Improves Stool Frequency: Helps soften stool and supports regular bowel movements, contributing to overall digestive comfort.
