Purimune prebiotic GOS passes intact through the mouth, stomach and small intestine to the colon where it is completely fermented by beneficial bacteria into short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). SCFA promote digestive and immune health, and enhance mineral absorption. Purimune, prebiotic GOS promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria, and inhibits colonization of pathogenic bacteria like E. coli.
Immune Health
Supports Immune System Strength Galactooligosaccharides such as Purimune™ prebiotic GOS occur naturally in human milk and support immune system strength. Purimune supports immunity by nourishing and stimulating the growth of beneficial microflora in the gastrointestinal (GI) system. By properly supporting the growth of beneficial microflora, Purimune also helps to reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria. The GI is the body’s largest immune organ and, when properly balanced, supports healthy immune system function. GOS, like Purimune, is prebiotic, and therefore provides immunostimulation and reduction of inflammation related to immune response. GOS also has anti-infective and allergy preventative properties.
