About Fructo-oligosaccharides

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) also sometimes called oligofructose or oligofructan, is a class of used as an artificial or alternative . FOS exhibits sweetness levels between 30 and 50 percent of sugar in commercially-prepared syrups. Its use emerged in the 1980s in response to consumer demand for healthier and calorie-reduced foods. The term refers to a short chain of sugar (in the case of FOS, molecules). Oligo means few, and saccharide means sugar.
