Preventing constipation

Breastfed children are definitely healthier than children fed with milk substitutes, and the former are more resistant to disease thanks to the absolute predominance of bifidobacteria in the intestine (99% of the total number of bacteria), while the latter account for only 50% or less. Bifidobacteria ferment oligosaccharides to produce large amounts of short-chain fatty acids, which can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, increase stool wetness and maintain a certain osmotic pressure, thus preventing the occurrence of constipation. In human trials, 30-100G of oligoisomaltose per day can prevent constipation within a week.

Synthetic vitamins
