Resumo(s)
The importance of human intestinal microbiota in maintaining host health is well known. Probiotics, prebiotics and the combination of these two components (synbiotics) can contribute to support an adequate balance of the bacterial population in the human large intestine. From a nutritional point of view, Arabinoxylooligosaccharides (AraXOS) are considered as Non Digestible Oligosaccharides and one of its most important features as food ingredients is the ability to stimulate the growth of intestinal bifidobacteria.
