Probiotics
HOW DO PROBIOTICS WORK?
Probiotics maintain the balance in the gut flora and will have a positive effect on the gut flora patterns.4,6
In fact, many gut disorders occur due to an imbalance in the normal gut flora, or a lack of diversity in the gut flora.6,7 Illness or medicines upset the balance ® probiotics restore this balance.4
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PROBIOTICS?
Health professionals are increasingly recognising the beneficial effects of probiotics on our health, as probiotics play an important role in immunological, digestive and respiratory functions.4
They also have a significant effect in alleviating infectious diseases in children as well as other high-risk groups.4
WHAT CAN PROBIOTICS BE USED FOR?
Probiotics can be used to assist in the treatment and prevention of conditions linked to an imbalance in the gut flora. These conditions include, but are not limited to:1,2,3
- colic in babies
- regurgitation in babies
- childhood constipation
- adult constipation
- functional abdominal pain
- vaginal thrush
- antibiotic associated diarrhoea
- immunity building
Research into the cause of babies’ gut problems has shown gut flora to play a crucial role and many studies focus on probiotic therapy as a treatment for specific conditions affecting the gut, including colic, regurgitation, constipation and abdominal pain.7,8
Reuterina® has demonstrated many benefits in a variety of conditions in babies, as follows:
