D-(+)-Raffinose is a trisaccharide composed of galactose, glucose, and fructose. It is found in a variety of plants and vegetables, including legumes, cabbage, onions, and other root vegetables. It is also found in some dairy products, such as cheese. D-(+)-Raffinose is a non-digestible carbohydrate, meaning it is not broken down and absorbed in the digestive system. Instead, it passes through the digestive system and is fermented by bacteria in the large intestine. This fermentation process produces short-chain fatty acids. In vitro studies of D-(+)-Raffinose have been used to study its effects on cell metabolism, its ability to modulate the immune system, and its antioxidant properties.
