 Children’s probiotic powder 

Product ingredients Kids Gut-Buddies Description Why choose Kids Gut-Buddies? Good gut bacteria for your little ones! Anyone with a baby, toddler or young child will be used to dealing with the coughs, colds, snuffles and tummy upsets that can accompany starting or returning to playgroups or preschool, when germs and viruses can be widespread. What’s more, children are particularly susceptible to disruptions to the delicate balance of “good” and “bad” bacteria in their tummies. Kids Gut-Buddies is a unique children’s probiotic powder that contains 7 strains of naturally-occurring beneficial organisms (friendly bacteria), including the child- specific Bifidobacterium infantis strain, combined with the prebiotic FOS (Fructooligosaccharide). It can offer support: • for your little one’s immune system, to better enable them to resist infection and fight disease • for healthy intestinal flora following a course of antibiotics or a digestive upset. What are probiotics? Probiotics are “friendly” bacteria that help to maintain the natural balance of organisms (microflora) in the intestines. They do this by competing for space and nutrients with harmful organisms that can make people sick; these beneficial micro-organisms also help to keep any pathogens present in check and work to prevent overgrowth that could lead to disease. What are prebiotics? Probiotics are not the same thing as prebiotics, which are non-digestible food ingredients that selectively stimulate the growth and/or activity of beneficial micro-organisms already in people's colons. In other words, prebiotics are substances that encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria - you can think of prebiotics as food for probiotics. While probiotics are living micro-organisms, prebiotics are non-living. Is it safe? Kids Gut-Buddies children’s probiotic powder is safe for children of all ages, including infants, babies and toddlers. The micro-organisms contained in this product occur naturally in the gut of children.  How will I get my child to take Kids Gut-Buddies? This children’s probiotic powder is tasteless and soluble, so it will be easy! Simply add it to your child’s food, water, milk or juice.   Dietary Symbols Dietary Symbols Key* Suitable for vegans Suitable for vegetarians Certified organic Dairy-free Gluten-free Sugar-free Wheat-free Yeast-free Zero additives * Product-specific symbols are located beneath each product image. © Specialist Supplements Ltd 2011 All rights reserved About Specialist Supplements   >> Home >> Why Specialist Supplements? >> Why “food form” is so important >> What people say about us >> Contact us >> Terms and Conditions >> Health blog   Customer help centre   Quality and security   >> Manufactured in the United Kingdom under quality assured GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards >> SecurityMetrics for PCI compliance, QSA, IDS, Penetration Testing, Forensics and Vulnerability Assessment >> 30-day money back guarantee on first purchases >> Products catalogue >> What’s new? >> Best sellers >> Free product catalogue >> Customer feedback  >> Health information pages >> Sitemap.xml >> Sitemap.html
