Fructooligosaccharide is a kind of water-soluble dietary fiber. In fact, some foods in daily life contain this ingredient, such as onions and garlic. So what effects does fructooligosaccharide have on the body? Let's have a look.

1. What are the effects of fructooligosaccharides on the body?

1, promote the growth of probiotics. Eating some fructooligosaccharides properly at ordinary times can make it difficult for some harmful bacteria to grow in the body. For some people who lack double texture in the body, you can eat some fructooligosaccharides appropriately, and the effect will be more obvious, because probiotics such as mulberry bacteria and some lactic acid bacteria can grow better in the human body by using fructooligosaccharides.

2. Improve immunity. Some fructooligosaccharides are completely fermented by bacteria in colon, and the short-chain fatty acids produced after decomposition and fermentation become the energy sources of intestinal cells and probiotics, which promote the proliferation of probiotics, inhibit the growth of scurvy bacteria and enhance the immune function of intestinal tract. Short-chain fatty acids can also lower the pH value of intestinal tract, inhibit the proliferation of bad cocci, prevent cholic acid from being converted into carcinogenic secondary cholic acid, hinder the generation of intestinal putrefaction, reduce ammonia concentration and reduce canceration. In addition, short-chain fatty acids also have nutritional effects on colorectal epithelial cells.

Second, what should I pay attention to when eating fructooligosaccharides?

Although the supplement of fructooligosaccharides has certain benefits to the body, because fructooligosaccharides can not be directly digested and absorbed by the human body, they can only be absorbed by bacteria in the stomach and intestines, so some people will have indigestion after eating fructooligosaccharides. Usually, do not eat a lot of fructooligosaccharides and take them moderately. Moreover, eating a lot of fructooligosaccharides may lead to incomplete nutrient absorption of the body, which will reduce the nutrient absorption of the human body. In addition, if you eat too much fructooligosaccharides, it will lead to the dependence of the body, which will slowly reduce the physical quality of the human body. Therefore, when supplementing fructooligosaccharides, you must consult a doctor first and then supplement it appropriately.
