Oligosaccharides and the Gluten Free Diet
Oligosaccharides are a type of carbohydrate made up of a small number of simple sugars. They include galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) and fructo-oligosaccharides (fructans). These compounds are not fully digestible by humans and are instead fermented by bacteria in the gut, which can lead to gas and bloating in some individuals, particularly those with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
