Bioecolians, patented alpha-gluco oligosaccharide, is an effective unique prebiotic ingredient active at low doses, only 2g/day, providing proven health benefits and well tolerated.
Bioecolians is composed of short glucose chains linked by glycosidic bonds α1-2 and α1-6, obtained from sugars by completely controlled enzymatic process.
Bioecolians resists hydrolysis in the stomach and absorption in the small intestine. It reaches the colon intact, where it is fermented by colonic beneficial bacteria, promoting their growth. The beneficial effect is already felt within a few days from initiating consumption.
