What is FOS?

FOS or fructooligosaccharides (frewk-toe-oligo-sak-a-rides) are “fast food” for probiotics.

Bad bugs such as yeast and other harmful bacteria grow and multiply when you eat sugary foods. FOS is a calorie-free carbohydrate that fuels the healthy bacteria and but NOT the bad ones.

Taking FOS with Florajen3 can help maintain high levels of good bugs in your GI tract.

Many foods contain FOS naturally. These include: Garlic, Honey, Rye, Brown Sugar, Bananas, Onions, Barley, and Tomatoes. However, at most they contain only 1% FOS as a percentage of weight. So you would need to eat a lot of these foods to get any significant effect from the FOS.

Take FOS with Florajen3 to Supercharge your Probiotics

Taking an FOS supplement is much more effective than trying to get FOS from the food you eat. Adding FOS to a probiotic supplement such as Florajen3 will help encourage the growth of the beneficial bacteria.
Studies show:

• 1 gram per day of FOS has been shown to cause a five-fold increase in Bifidobacteria.
• FOS reduces the growth of unfriendly bacteria and the harmful substances they produce in the GI tract.
• FOS can relieve constipation.
• FOS can stop antibiotic-induced diarrhea by promoting the growth of healthy bacteria.
