Nunatura Yacon

Nunatura Yacon is considered the world’s richest source of natural FOS (Fructo-oligosaccharides). FOS is a sweet and low caloric dietetic fiber with prebiotic properties. Prebiotics are important components to keep a healthy digestive system. Yacon is often consumed as deliciously tasting syrup, which can be used as ideal sugar replacement in any food or drink, especially in low-calorie products.
