Gut health requires daily care, mainly linked to what we eat during the day. With GOFOS™, it is possible to develop innovative products with several associated benefits, aiming to balance the gastrointestinal tract.
The human intestinal flora contains almost 100 trillions of bacteria, playing a fundamental role in the general health of our body. Better nutrient absorption, blood glucose control, control fat absorption, reduced cholesterol absorption and increased immunity: all these benefits are associated with a healthy maintenance of our microbiota. Soluble fibers play a fundamental role in our microbiota, as this type of fiber favors the proliferation of beneficial bacteria in our intestine, resulting in all the benefits mentioned above.
A GOFOS™ is a prebiotic soluble fiber, able to promote intestinal balance, serving as a substrate for various microorganisms beneficial to our body. It also contributes to intestinal motility, promotes greater absorption of calcium and magnesium and acts against the development of infections. It has the lowest glycemic index among soluble fibers and has only 2 kcal/gram – half the energy value of sugar.
In addition to the associated health benefits, a GOFOS™ is capable of promoting several improvements in the sensorial aspects of foods. For owning 30% of sweetness power, allows the reduction of calories in products, since its application is very similar to sucrose. Has the ability to synergize with high-intensity sweeteners, enhancing and improving the sweetness profile. A GOFOS™ also acts as a powerful texturizing agent, improving palatability and mouthfeel of the formulations. It is highly soluble and has no residual taste or odor.
A Galam, Israeli company with more than 70 years of experience manufacturing natural and functional ingredients, makes available, via Tovani Benzaquen, a GOFOS™ for the entire Brazilian market. Including an ingredient like this in formulations allows democratizing access to the aforementioned benefits and developing increasingly innovative and enjoyable products for the population..
A Tovani Benzaquen, one of the main distributors of food and functional ingredients in South America, is always looking for innovations to improve health and provide well-being for everyone.
