1 of 6 products in this brand
GOFOS™ is a palatable soluble prebiotic non-digestible fiber consisting of about 95% of short chain fructo-oligosaccharides (sc-FOS). GOFOS™ is produced from beet sugar by a proprietary unique enzymatic process, leading to the formation of oligosaccharides content with fixed chain length of 3-5 units. Sc-FOS is naturally found in small amounts in various vegetables and fruits, promotes the growth and activity of beneficial animal gut microbiota, helps maintaining a healthy gut, improving immunity, and reducing potential pathogens occurrence.
