Health Rise

The wave behind the Yangtze River pushes the wave forward. The post-90s who were once unpopular have taken over the burden of society from those born in the 70s or 80s. Gradually, the young post-90s also began to learn how to keep in good health. Nowadays, many young people spend the deepest nights, put on the most expensive facial mask, and there are still wolfberries in the thermos cup.

As the saying goes, "Stay up all night is cool, stay up all the time." After the cool, the young post-90s found that they didn't seem to be that young anymore, so they joined the army of health preservation. What is the most important thing to pay attention to in health preservation? That must be the intestines.

Intestinal flora and human health

The first thing people think of when talking about the intestine is digestion and absorption. The small intestine absorbs nutrients with its unique circular folds and villi, but few people are aware of the large number of intestinal flora living in our intestines.

In fact, the number of bacteria that live with our human body is 10 times that of human cells, and most of the bacteria live in our intestines, and their total weight can reach 1.5kg [1]. Among so many bacteria, most of them are harmless to our human body. They have been in a state of peaceful symbiosis with the human body for a long time. However, when the status of the intestinal flora changes, it may cause obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and some cardiovascular diseases [2-4].

Diabetes has become the third largest disease after malignant tumors and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. According to the "White Paper on Chinese Internet Diabetes Population", the number of diagnosed diabetes patients in China increased year by year from 2011 to 2018, with a compound annual growth rate of 3.5%. Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) accounts for about 95%.

Studies have shown [4] that the mechanism of action related to probiotics and the pathogenesis of T2DM mainly includes: regulating energy absorption, improving intestinal barrier function, regulating immune inflammatory response, and inhibiting pathogen colonization. Moreover, the various mechanisms of action are interrelated. In particular, regulating adipose tissue, reducing lipopolysaccharide (LPS) content, and preventing insulin resistance (IR) are essential for the prevention and improvement of type 2 diabetes. In the 2016 International Microbiome Health Technology Innovation Forum, Professor Zhao Liping of Shanghai Jiaotong University stated that there are obvious microbial structure disorders in the intestines of obese and diabetic patients. The increase in the number of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines causes obesity and thus diabetes. Important pathogenic factors of other diseases [5].

As humans age, the flora in the intestinal tract also changes. Bifidobacteria can appear in babies from 3-4 months old, and it can reach about 40% during puberty with age, and then it will decrease with age, and the number of bifidobacteria will further increase after reaching old age. Reduce. Some scholars surveyed the intestinal flora of the long-lived elderly in Bama, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and found that the level of bifidobacteria in these long-lived elderly is equivalent to that of young adults [6], so microecologists also use the number of bifidobacteria as the human body "Health Index".

So True's FOS prebiotic , escort your intestines

The "Consensus of Experts on Prebiotics and Health of the Chinese Nutrition Society" defines prebiotics, specifically those that are generally not digested and absorbed by the human body but can be selectively used by human microorganisms, and can improve the composition and/or activity of intestinal microbes, thereby benefiting human health. Food ingredients. Almost all prebiotics currently recognized are carbohydrates, including fructooligosaccharides, inulin, galacto-oligosaccharides and so on.

As a relatively common prebiotic, fructooligosaccharide is not used by the human body, but it can be used by beneficial bacteria such as bifidobacteria; it will not be digested by the stomach and small intestine to reach the colon and be inhabited here. Fermentation of bifidobacteria, etc., produces a variety of short-chain fatty acids, which promote the absorption of minerals and vitamins, and inhibition can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and improve immunity.

The real shot of So True's  FOS powder

So True's  FOS product uses sucrose as raw material, adopts self-invented patented technology, and is formed by fructosyl transferase catalyzed reaction. It has stable quality and can be widely used in food, health care, wine, cosmetics and feed and other fields.
