FOS, or fructooligosaccharides, can improve your baby's digestive health by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, aiding in digestion, and supporting overall gut health.

How FOS Can Improve Your Baby’s Digestive Health
1. FOS is a type of prebiotic naturally found in some fruits, vegetables,
and breast milk. It is a short-chain carbohydrate that cannot be
digested by human enzymes but serves as a source of nourishment
for beneficial bacteria in the gut.
HOW CAN FOS BENEFIT YOUR BABY’S
DIGESTION?
FOS acts as a prebiotic, stimulating the growth of good bacteria
like Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli in your baby’s gut. These
beneficial bacteria play a crucial role in digestion, nutrient
absorption, and immune function.
1.GROWTH OF BENEFICIAL BACTERIA
FOS may help regulate your baby’s bowel movements by promoting
softer stools and potentially reducing constipation.
2. IMPROVED STOOL CONSISTENCY
A healthy gut microbiome with a balance of good and bad bacteria
is linked to a stronger immune system. By supporting the growth of
beneficial bacteria, FOS may indirectly contribute to your baby’s
developing immune system.
3. ENHANCED IMMUNE FUNCTION
Some research suggests that a balanced gut microbiome in early
life may be linked to a lower risk of allergies later in childhood. FOS,
by promoting beneficial bacteria, may play a role in this potential
benefit.
4. REDUCED RISK OF ALLERGIES
