Functions
The microbiota of the human gastrointestinal tract plays a key role in nutrition and health. A delicate balance exists between the human intestinal microflora and its host. Upset of this community structure may lead toward undesirable immune reactions or bowel conditions. Many different environmental factors may affect the gut microbial ecology in children; these include food, formula feeding, medication, and childbirth C-sections. It is therefore important that infant’s and children’s gut microflora be supported with probiotics and prebiotics.
Probiotics are supplemental live, beneficial intestinal micro-organisms for gastrointestinal health and immune support. Probiotics have been shown to exert a beneficial support through modification of the immune system host via the gut environment.
Indications
Multi-Probiotic Kids is indicated for children age 0-12 for immune and digestive health.
