I have heard of people having problems with inulin and fos added to products. 
As lance stated, it can help beneficial bacteria but it can also feed bad 
bacteria as well which would aggravate candida, and arthritis condition. Bad 
bacteria in the gut is  responsible for body aches auto immune problems and 
many other things.
