Children like to share everything, including illness. Frequently today a child’s illness means a trip to the doctor and a prescription antibiotic. Within days the child’s health improves as the antibiotic kills off the illness-causing bacteria. Unfortunately the antibiotic can also destroy the thousands of good bacteria necessary for digestion. Side effects can include diarrhea, gas, bloating, and even bad breath.
The answer to helping your child’s body maintain or rebuild the important balance between good and bad bacteria may be a probiotic like Children’s Acidophilus. Probiotics are taken orally and contain live bacteria which restore lost digestive bacteria. Vitabase Children’s Acidophilus is a multi-species probiotic containing both Lactobacillua acidophilus and Bifidobacterium. L. Acidophilus works in the small intestine and Bifidobacterium works in the colon. These bacteria are important for helping the body synthesize important vitamins, nutrients, and enzymes.
Children’s Acidophilus contains over 1 billion viable cells per capsule. Microencapsulation helps assure safe passage through the acidic stomach which can destroy unprotected bacteria. Our Children’s Acidophilus is manufactured by Institut Rosell of Montreal, Canada, a leading probiotics supplier. Their proprietary process allows cells to survive at room temperature eliminating the need for refrigeration.
