Oligosaccharides are a type of carbohydrate made up of a small number of sugar molecules, typically between three and ten. They are considered complex carbohydrates, but simpler than polysaccharides like starch and cellulose. Oligosaccharides can be found naturally in various foods, including beans, legumes, onions, garlic, and certain fruits and vegetables. While the human body cannot fully digest oligosaccharides, they serve as prebiotics, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. This can contribute to improved digestion, enhanced immune function, and overall gut health. Additionally, oligosaccharides may help regulate blood sugar levels and support weight management.
