For the first section, the way it was written is a bit confusing to follow. The second sentence is a run off. I would advise splitting it into 2 parts. For instance, “They differ from fructans such as insulin, which as polysaccharides insulin have a much high degree of polymerization than FOS and other oligosaccharides. However, like insulin and other fructans, FOS are considered soluble dietary fibre.” Then for the next sentence, “Using fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) as fiber supplementations is shown to have effect on glucose homeostasis quite similar to insulin. These FOS supplements can be considered Prebiotics and are known to produce short-chain fructo-oligosacchrides.” I got ride of the phrase “something called” because it shows doubt and uncertainty. The word “which” is used too many times throughout this section. As for the material, I think the first section seems to be left on an incomplete thought. Maybe expand on (scFOS) a little bit more or find a way to tie what you said back to the overall point of the section. Overall, this section includes material that is relevant to the topic you all are writing about. There are no controversial statements.

For the rest of the sections, I won’t focus so much on the grammar. Everything that is an important topic that needs more description seems to be linked to a different wikipedia article, which I think is very helpful. Although, I am having trouble understanding what the main goal of this section on dietary oligosaccharides is. And, it seems as though there have just been minor changes made from the existing article. It may be helpful to branch off of each kind of oligosaccharide in a way that has not been mentioned. For instance, what type of vegetables can you get fructo-oligosaccharides from? Or maybe there is another wikipedia article you can link to it? I think this would help make you article stronger and less vague. Overall, great job!
