NCIt definition : A powder-based nutritional supplement composed of Brazilian fermented non-digestible
food composed of soy, wheat, and organic wheat germ, and containing a mixture of non-soluble
and fermentable fibers rich in oligosaccharides, with potential immunomodulating and
prebiotic activities. Upon oral administration of the fermented prebiotic dietary
supplement, the high concentrations of beta-glucans are able to stimulate the proliferation
of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This modulates the GI flora
ecosystem, improves the functions of the intestinal barrier and protects against harmful
viruses and bacteria. In addition, this prebiotic modulates the immune system and
may inhibit inflammation.;
