Lamberts FOS - Fructo-oligosaccharides 500g

FOS powder is a natural prebiotic fibre derived from chicory root that supports a balanced gut microbiome. When consumed, fructo-oligosaccharides are only partially absorbed, serving as a nutritional substrate for beneficial gut bacteria, especially Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli. This prebiotic action can promote a healthier intestinal environment, supporting regular bowel function and digestive comfort. Studies indicate that daily intake can increase certain bacteria in the natural flora, while reducing some pathogenic microbes. The product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans and is manufactured to GMP standards in the UK. The 500g pack provides a simple, long‑term option for daily gut health maintenance, with no major allergens reported in the formula.

Usage and storage

Dosage: 1 teaspoon = 5 g. Use in small doses to maintain gut health or in higher doses to support intestinal functionality. Dissolve in hot drinks or mix with cereal, or take it straight from the spoon. Drink 2 liters of fluids per day. For doses above 10 g (or 5 g for children), split the daily amount into two doses (e.g., lunch and dinner). Store in a cool, dry environment and protect from light.

May cause temporary bloating and gas as gut bacteria adjust. If gas is increased, reduce the dose and increase gradually. For doses above 10 g, split the daily amount into two doses to reduce gas. If bloating persists for more than 3 days, reduce the dose.
