What is Organic Xylooligosaccharides Powder?
Organic Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) Powder is a prebiotic fiber derived from organic xylan, typically sourced from hardwoods or plant fibers. XOS is a natural oligosaccharide known for its positive impact on gut health and digestion. As a prebiotic, XOS helps to nourish beneficial gut bacteria, promoting a healthy microbiome. The powder is highly soluble and provides a mild, slightly sweet taste, making it ideal for use in functional foods, dietary supplements, and beverages. XOS is an excellent alternative to sugar and other sweeteners for those seeking a natural, low-calorie option to support digestive health.
