BACKGROUND Although acute consumption of high doses of prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharides GOS ) increases fractional iron absorption (FIA) from ferrous fumarate (FeFum), it is uncertain if low doses of GOS have this effect.
RESULTS Giving 7 g of GO si gnificantly increased FIA from FeF um (+ 26%; P = 0.039), whereas 3.5 g GOS did not (P = 0.130).

After 4 wk of GOS consumption, GOS again significantly increased FIA from FeFum in the meal (+29%; P = 0.044).
