A good digestion is vital for a healthy life. It helps our body to absorb all the nutrients it needs to run smoothly. A healthy digestive system in turn requires sufficient dietary fibre intake.
Our Orafti® Inulin and Orafti® Oligofructose are extracted from chicory root and can bring your products to a fiber-enriched status. They nourish your colon micro flora – add a prebiotic plus.
Prebiotic dietary fibres and improved digestive health.

Besides plant-based protein enrichment, BeneoPro FB comes with a variety of technical advantages. For example, it can be used for egg replacement in muffins and allows for smooth homogenous dairy-free beverages.
