Promotes Healthy Cardiovascular Function & Normal Cell Division

Folic Acid is a B vitamin and a crucial nutrient for the health of the heart and normal fetal development. Folic acid is a methyl donor needed to convert homocysteine back to methionine and for accurate synthesis of DNA and normal cell division throughout life, including during pregnancy. Healthful diets with adequate folic acid may reduce a woman’s risk of having a child with certain brain or spinal cord defects.

Keep out of the reach of children.

Inulin and FructoOligoSaccharides (FOS) are soluble fibers found in an array of plant foods, including chicory, onions, asparagus and bananas. These fibers promote gut and overall health through their fermentation by gut flora, primarily in the colon, to yield important metabolites, including lactic acid and the short chain fatty acids acetate, propionate and butyrate. These metabolites help to maintain proper pH in the gut, discourage the growth of unfriendly bacteria, reduce the absorption of toxic ammonia and positively affect bone health by increasing the bioavailability of dietary calcium. Moreover, acetate, propionate and butyrate promote the integrity of the intestinal cells lining the colon and promote healthy lipid metabolism.

BENEO™Synergy1 delivers both long-chain and short-chain saccharides to the gut, optimizing the growth of beneficial bacteria.
