FAQs

Q: What is the source of your Organic Galactooligosaccharide (GOS) Powder?

A: Our Organic GOS Powder is derived from organic lactose, typically sourced from organic dairy. This ensures a clean and sustainably produced prebiotic.

Q: Is Organic GOS suitable for lactose-intolerant individuals?

A: While derived from lactose, the enzymatic conversion process significantly reduces the lactose content. However, trace amounts of lactose may remain. For severe lactose intolerance or dairy allergies, we recommend conducting specific tests or clearly stating the dairy origin.

Q: What is the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?

A: Our Organic GOS Powder typically has a shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed, airtight packaging.

Q: What makes GOS a “prebiotic”?

A: GOS is classified as a prebiotic because it is a non-digestible food ingredient that selectively stimulates the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the colon, thereby improving host health. It specifically nourishes beneficial strains like Bifidobacteria.

Q: Can Organic GOS Powder be used in infant formulas?

A: Yes, GOS is one of the most widely used prebiotics in infant formulas globally due to its well-documented benefits in supporting gut microbiota development similar to breast milk.
