Our delicious, chewable probiotic supplies potent microbiome power with 14 billion CFU/gram and includes three strains of Lactobacilli, two of Bifidobacterium, and Bacillus coagulans, helping your child maintain a healthy balance of good gut bacteria. Probiotics can have wide-ranging benefits, including supporting regular bowel movements, abdominal comfort, brain health, immune system functioning, and mood.*
Additionally, this supplement provides important digestive enzymes, such as lactase, bromelain, protease, and lipase, to help children better use the food they eat. These enzymes help the body break down and absorb nutrients critical for health and well-being.*
Mental Health and Neurological Effects: The gut-brain axis refers to the bidirectional communication between the gut and the brain. Probiotics can potentially influence this communication, which might have implications for mood and behavior in children.*1 Some studies have linked a healthy gut microbiome with reduced symptoms of conditions like ADHD and autism, though more research is needed in this area.*2
Digestive Health: Probiotics help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria, which is essential for proper digestion. They can alleviate symptoms of certain digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), constipation, and diarrhea.*34
Immune System Boost: A large portion of the immune system resides in the gut. Probiotics can enhance the body's natural defenses by promoting a balanced gut microbiome.* Probiotics may help reduce the frequency and severity of common infections in children, like the cold or flu.*5
Allergy Reduction: Some studies suggest that certain probiotic strains can reduce the risk or severity of allergies in children, including conditions like eczema.*6
Nutrient Absorption: A healthy gut environment can boost the absorption of essential nutrients from food, ensuring that kids get the maximum benefit from their diets.*7
Protection Against Pathogens: Probiotics can compete with and prevent the colonization of harmful pathogens in the gut, reducing the risk of infections.*8
Lactose Digestion: Some probiotics can assist in breaking down lactose and can be helpful for kids with lactose intolerance.*9
