What is Biotis® GOS
Biotis® GOS, from FrieslandCampina Ingredients, is a dairy-derived prebiotic which has been shown to influence the balance of the gut microbiota1-4 producing beneficial effects on gut health4-6 and mental well-being.2
We’re proud that our Biotis® GOS is the most researched prebiotic in the world.
A recent study found that the daily consumption of Biotis® GOS improved mental well-being and reduced anxiety levels, while also increasing the abundance of beneficial Bifidobacteria in the gut microbiome.4
Follow-up analysis on nutrient intake found that the participants who consumed Biotis® GOS over four weeks consumed less sugar,7 which may indicate a positive impact on dietary habits.
It is a versatile, stable, long shelf-life ingredient that’s easy to incorporate into all kinds of formats. It has a clean sensory profile and is available as a transparent syrup. Its flavour is neutral to slightly sweet, allowing varied and many application possibilities.
Biotis® GOS is also available as a white powder.
