FOS (Fructo-oigosaccharides) - 500g Powder - Lamberts

Supports bowel health by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria through fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), a natural soluble fiber extracted from chicory roots. This fibre aids in achieving better bowel tone and regular movements, with positive effects observed after just two weeks of use. Suitable for all ages, including children and pregnant women, and can be easily mixed into various foods and drinks.

Daily intake: 5 to 15 grams
For intakes over 10g (or 5g in children); dividing the intake into 2 daily doses 1 at each end of the day will help reduce flatulence.

FOS may cause temporary bloating. This is a short-term effect and once your system ‘speeds up’ the bloating will disappear. If bloating continues for more than 3 days then reduce the daily intake of FOS.

To be stored in a cool dry place and protected from light.

Fructo-oigosaccharides (derived from chicory root)

The following list of allergens are excluded: Wheat, Barley, Soya, Eggs, Milk (and milk products), Lactose, Nuts, Sulphites and Gluten containing ingredients.

If any of these intake levels cause excessive flatulence then reduce the dose and gradually build up. The flatulence is a positive sign that FOS has reached the bowel and is feeding your ‘friendly’ bacteria. As the bacteria consume FOS a gas is produced which can lead to some flatulence at first however after a few days this will disappear as further ‘friendly’ bacteria develop and absorb the gases. For intakes over 10g (or 5g in children); dividing the intake into 2 daily doses 1 at each end of the day will help reduce flatulence.

FOS may cause temporary bloating. This is a short-term effect and once your system ‘speeds up’ the bloating will disappear. If bloating continues for more than 3 days then reduce the daily intake of FOS.
