Food

Interventions/Control_1

Duration: Three weeks
Test food: Food containing galactooligosaccharide
Administration: Take one packet with approximately 120 ml of water without vapour (room temperature or chilled) at any time during the day once daily. At that time, completely dissolve the powder in the packet in water with the provided dropper and take it at once.

*Because the test food is in powder form and is likely to remain inside the aluminum pouch packet due to its high hygroscopicity, use a dropper to dissolve the test food in water and take it, and check the inside of the packet as carefully as possible to avoid remaining inside the packet
*If you forget to take the test food, take it as soon as you remember. Daily dose should be taken within the day and not carried over to the next day.

Interventions/Control_2

Duration: Three weeks
Test food: Food not containing galactooligosaccharide
Administration: Take one packet with approximately 120 ml of water without vapour (room temperature or chilled) at any time during the day once daily. At that time, completely dissolve the powder in the packet in water with the provided dropper and take it at once.

*Because the test food is in powder form and is likely to remain inside the aluminum pouch packet due to its high hygroscopicity, use a dropper to dissolve the test food in water and take it, and check the inside of the packet as carefully as possible to avoid remaining inside the packet
