“Alternatively, addingFOS to RRB augmented RRB effect on glycemic variables: 4-week intake of RRB + FOS significantly decreased 30 min incremental areas under curve (iAUC 0-30) of IR group for glucose and insulin from baseline by 20% (P = 0.014) and 18% (P = 0.012), respectively.”

“The main problem during FOS synthesis is that the activity of the enzyme is inhibited by the glucose generated during the reaction, and therefore the maximum FOS content in commercial products reaches up to 60% on a dry substance basis.”
“Competition experiments showed that glucose , fructose, and sucrose reduced FOS uptake but that other mono-, di-, and trisaccharides were less inhibitory.”
