Galactooligosaccharide (GOS) is an important prebiotic that exists in breast milk.The establishment of bifidobacteria flora in infants and young children depends to a large extent on the galactooligosaccharidesin breast milk, so we often This ingredient is seen in infant formula milk powder.Today I will take you to learn about galactooligosaccharides.
The galacto-oligosaccharides added in formula milk powder are mostly made from milk lactose,which is produced through a series of reactions under the action of enzymes.The sweetness is20% to 40% of that of sucrose
Galactooligosaccharide has the characteristics of acid and heat resistance. After entering the human body,it cannot be decomposed by saliva and gastric juice and directly enters the large intestine.It promotes the proliferation of bifidobacteria in the intestine and inhibits Salmonella,Escherichia coli, Shigella, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.The growth of bacteria reduces the production of toxic substances,helps infants and young children to establish intestinal flora,maintains the balance of intestinal microecology, and plays a role in enhancing the body is immunity.
During the proliferation of bifidobacteria using galactooligosaccharides,short-chain fatty acids are produced to form an acidic environment,which can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, increase fecal humidity, and help prevent the occurrence of constipation in infants and young children; the resulting acidic environment can also promote the intestines The absorption of calcium and magnesium by the Tao is conducive to the growth and development of infants and young children.
In addition, galactooligosaccharides also have anti-caries and reduce serum cholesterol. At present, China uses galactooligosaccharides as a new resource food and is widely used in infant food, dairy products, beverages, bakery foods and candy It can also be used as a nutritional fortifier in infant formula food.
