A new study designed to evaluate whether Raftilose Synergy 1, Orafti’s patented enriched inulin powder, can increase calcium retention within bones has yielded positive results. The study revealed that when the diet was supplemented with Raftilose Synergy 1 over a period of one year, it helped increase calcium retention and accretion in bones by 15%. The study examined the effects of dietary administration of Raftilose Synergy 1 in a randomized sample of 100 male and female volunteers ages nine and 13. Half of the subjects were provided with 8 grams of Raftilose Synergy 1 to consume with breakfast each day for a year, while the other half took a placebo.
