Life Start Pro Vegan Dairy Free 35g

Beneficial bacteria is important for people of all ages, including infants. Natren®produces a probiotic product designed specifically for infants. Life Start® is made with Bifidobacterium infantis, the beneficial bacteria which is most prominent in infants.Babies born vaginally to healthy mothers receive their initial supply of beneficial bacteria on their passage through the birth canal. It is important for infants to continue getting beneficial bacteria to help them develop healthy bodies.

• Using Life Start® stimulates better weight gain through nitrogen retention, which is especially important for formula-fed infants.
• This bacteria encourages the formation of antibodies against undesirable bacteria and viruses.
• Pregnant women and nursing mothers should also take Life Start® along with their regular regimen of Trenev Trio® in order to give their baby the best start possible.
• It is especially important to give Life Start® to babies delivered in hospital rooms or especially by caesarean section, since they don’t have the advantage of getting the beneficial bacteria from their mother as they pass through the birth canal.
• Even breast-fed babies need the advantage Life Start® can offer, to encourage the optimal health of the baby.

Note

Lactobacillus acidophilus supplementation is not recommended for infants without the advice of a physician, as it is not the prominent beneficial microorganism in healthy, breast-fed infants. After weaning, acidophilus increases and Bifidobacteria colonize and become prominent in the large intestine. Life Start®, a milk-based probiotic for infants, should be carefully evaluated: With an increase in casein allergies in infants, please check babies for true milk allergies. You may use Bifidonate® Dairy-free instead.
