• 5g fibre per 200ml (100% soluble fibre) - 50% FOS and 50% GOS
• Benefits of the fibre blend:

  FOS and GOS are considered to be strong prebiotics.  This can help to provide optimal benefits for GI health and normalise bowel function by alleviating diarrhoea or constipation
  FOS:GOS is fermented by bacteria in the colon which increases production of Short Chain Fatty Acids. This can lead to a reduction in diarrhoea and promotes growth of beneficial bacteria helping to alleviate constipation.
