Features & Benefits
- Food Ingredients Features
- Features and Benefits
- NUTRAFLORA® L95-S prebiotic fiber promotes digestive, immune and bone health. It selectively stimulates the growth and/or activity of beneficial microflora while being unavailable to pathogens.
- NUTRAFLORA® L95-S has demonstrated effects in published peer-reviewed human studies. It contributes to dietary fiber, has a low caloric contribution, and is heat stable.
- NUTRAFLORA® L95-S has a clean, slightly sweet flavor profile and performs similarly to sugar at typical inclusion levels.
- The ingredient is soluble and does not contribute to viscosity. It enhances flavors - rounds and extends the sweetness profile of high intensity sweeteners.
