Description About Stachyose
Stachyose is a natural sugar and an oligosaccharide that can significantly promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria. It is refined from natural plants and is a slightly sweet white powder.
Stachyose can improve the intestinal environment, and has significant value to the beneficial bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract, such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. It can quickly improve the environment in the human digestive tract and regulate the micro-ecological balance of microorganisms. It is also known as probiotic food.
Stachyose is similar to water-soluble dietary fiber, non-toxic and can be eaten directly. It is a kind of dietary fiber and can usually be used as a health product. Its main function is to provide nutrition for the stomach, so that probiotics can survive in the stomach, and it is relatively high temperature resistant, and can directly enter the intestine without being absorbed by the stomach.
In the intestinal tract, stachyose is an active substance that will not be decomposed by digestive enzymes in the stomach, and can directly act on the intestinal tract. The probiotics in the intestines are good nutrients, which can improve the normal resistance and immunity of the human body, and help the body resist external bacteria.
