Safety and Modulatory Effects of Humanized Galacto-Oligosaccharides on the Gut Microbiome

Safety and Modulatory Effects of Humanized Galacto-Oligosaccharides on the Gut Microbiome

Complex dietary carbohydrate structures including β(1–4) galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are resistant to digestion in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract and arrive intact to the colon where they benefit the host by selectively stimulating microbial growth. Studies have reported the beneficial imp...
