How to choose probiotics

To choose high-quality probiotics, it is necessary to choose probiotics that are safe, highly active, and clinically proven to have good efficacy. Therefore, it is important to choose well-known probiotics brands with a long history and high international reputation. As we all know, the efficacy of probiotics has a high degree of strain specificity. Different strains, suppliers, and strain ratios may have completely different effects (of course, this effect must be clinically validated). Therefore, when choosing probiotics, we should also choose probiotic products that are suitable for babies based on their different functional needs.

As is well known, different age groups require different nutrients, and the health problems that occur in different age groups are also different, and the solutions are also focused on. During the period of 0-6 years old, babies belong to the "immune deficiency period". During this stage, supplementing probiotics to maintain the balance of gut microbiota and maintain the advantageous position of probiotics is extremely beneficial for the health of babies. Customized probiotic products based on age groups can better meet the actual needs of babies.

In addition to the above points, when choosing probiotics, it is also important to consider:

1. Check the number of live bacteria

The demand for probiotics in babies is different from that of adults, and experts recommend consuming about 4 billion to 10 billion live bacteria per day.

2. Look at the strain

It is best to choose probiotic products containing Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Baby Bifidobacterium. 95% of the probiotics in the healthy human intestine are Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum, which are unique and advantageous strains in infants and young children.

3. Look at the dosage form

But for smaller babies, granules are a better choice. For older children, chewable tablets are a better choice.
