Human bodies are host to several thousand billion friendly bacteria. These bacteria play a role in digestion and also in tandem with our immune system to keep us healthy. It is important to keep the ratio of friendly bacteria to harmful bacteria in balance. For example, friendly bacteria can protect us from overgrowth and infection of fungi and yeasts, which can produce harmful substances. Taking a good pro-biotic formula can start the "culture" of the balance of bacteria in our intestines toward the health promoting ratio. Taking a diet high in soluble fibre will provide the "food" for these friendly bacteria to multiply and restore healthy numbers. Especially good after a course of anti-biotic or when one's balance of bacteria are in the wrong tip of the scale. What does Baby's Jarro-Dophilus® do? Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus ® contains superior, scientifically documented strains. Clinical studies have documented the benefits of B. breve M-16V and B. longum BB536 (Morinaga) in infants and young children. FOS is a natural fiber which enhances the growth of beneficial probiotic bacteria. At time of manufacture, each gram (approximately 1/4 teaspoon) contains a minimum of 3 billion probiotic organisms in the following percentages and amounts: Suggested Usage Up to age 4, mix 1/4 teaspoon per day in water, juice, lukewarm infant formula or food, or as directed by your qualified health care consultant. For newborns, mix into formula only 1/16 teaspoon per day for the first week. A small amount of powder may also be dabbed on mother’s nipple before breast feeding. DO NOT feed powder directly to infants or children. Baby's Jarro-Dophilus™ + FOS survives stomach acid and colonizes the intestines. FOS are natural carbohydrates that enhance replication of beneficial bacteria. Keep out of the reach of children. Scientific References 1.
