Xylooligosaccharides, also known as xylooligosaccharides, are functional polymeric sugars. Xylo-oligosaccharide is a common health product that is becoming more and more popular. Many people adjust gastrointestinal function and improve constipation symptoms by drinking xylooligosaccharides. Compared with soybean oligosaccharides and fructooligosaccharides, it has some special advantages, which can effectively promote the activity of intestinal bifidobacteria and improve the environment of intestinal flora.

Xylo-oligosaccharides are difficult to be broken down by human digestive enzymes.

Digestion experiments with saliva, gastric juice, pancreatic juice and small intestine enzyme juice show that all kinds of digestive juice can hardly decompose xylooligosaccharide, its energy value is almost zero, neither affects blood sugar concentration nor increases blood sugar insulin level , and will not form fat deposits, so it can play a role in low-energy foods, satisfying the requirements of those who love desserts but are worried about diabetes and obesity, so diabetics, obese patients and hypoglycemic patients can rest assured edible.

Xylo-oligosaccharide is one of the varieties with the strongest function of proliferating bifidobacteria among polymeric sugars. Its efficacy is nearly 20 times that of other polymeric sugars. There is no enzyme to hydrolyze xylo-oligosaccharide in the human gastrointestinal tract, so its It can directly enter the large intestine and be preferentially used by bifidobacteria to promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria and produce a variety of organic acids.

Lowering the pH value of the intestinal tract, inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria, allowing probiotics to proliferate in large quantities in the intestinal tract, and achieving the above-mentioned health effects, this is the health mystery of xylooligosaccharides.

1. Reduce the production of toxic fermentation products and harmful bacterial enzymes

Human in vivo and in vitro fecal culture tests show that within 3 weeks of ingestion, the production of toxic fermentation products and 40.9% of harmful bacterial enzymes can be reduced in the body.

2. Inhibit pathogenic bacteria and diarrhea

Xylo-oligosaccharides have a strong adsorption force to pathogenic bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Enterobacteriaceae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Aeromonas hydrophila, etc., can be adsorbed on xylo-oligosaccharides. Sugar is not degraded by the digestive enzymes in the intestine, and can carry the attached pathogenic bacteria out of the body through the intestine, thereby preventing the colonization of diseases in the intestine and achieving the purpose of preventing diarrhea.

3. Prevent constipation

Bifidobacterium uses xylooligosaccharides to produce a large amount of short-chain fatty acids; it can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, increase the moisture of feces, and maintain a certain osmotic pressure, thereby preventing constipation.

4. Protect liver function

Intake of xylooligosaccharides can reduce the formation of toxic metabolites and greatly reduce the burden on the liver to decompose toxins.

5. Lower serum cholesterol

Taking xylooligosaccharides for 2 weeks to 3 months can reduce total serum cholesterol by 20-50dl. It can also increase the ratio of multi-density lipoprotein cholesterol to total cholesterol in female serum.

6. Lower blood pressure

Studies have shown that after 46 patients with hyperlipidemia ingested xylooligosaccharides for 5 weeks, their diastolic blood pressure decreased by an average of 799.8Pa (6mmHg). The results showed that there was a significant negative correlation between the diastolic blood pressure of a person and the ratio of bifidobacteria to the total number of bacteria in feces.

7. Enhance the body's immunity and fight cancer

The results of a large number of experiments show that the proliferation of bifidobacteria in the intestinal tract can play an anti-cancer role. This anti-cancer effect is attributed to the cells, cell wall components and extracellular secretions of bifidobacteria, which improve the body's immunity.

8. Good compatibility

Studies have shown that taking a small amount of xylooligosaccharides in the daily diet can show health effects. When xylooligosaccharides and calcium are taken at the same time, it will not affect the body's absorption of calcium, but can promote it. The test results show that the body's Ca retention rate increased by 21% after 7 days of arbitrary ingestion of 2% xylooligosaccharide aqueous solution.

9. It can promote the body to produce a variety of nutrients , including vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12, niacin and folic acid.

10. Prevent and protect dental caries and inhibit the growth of oral bacteria.

Dental caries is caused by the erosion of oral microorganisms, especially streptococci. Xylo-oligosaccharides are not suitable substrates for these oral microorganisms, so they will not cause dental caries, thereby inhibiting the growth of oral bacteria.

Suitable crowd for xylooligosaccharides:

Xylo-oligosaccharides are suitable for the general population, without special contraindications, and can be consumed for a long time. People with poor gastrointestinal tract often drink xylooligosaccharides, which can reduce gastrointestinal diseases, prevent constipation and diarrhea, and provide a variety of nutrients. Xylo-oligosaccharides cannot replace medicines. If constipation is severe, you need to go to the hospital for professional treatment. Xylo-oligosaccharides cannot treat diseases.
