Description

• Formulated for infants up to 2 years
• Free of D(-) isomer of lactic acid-producing species
• Easy to administer powder formula

This hypoallergenic blend of 5 Lactobacillus and 5 Bifidobacterium species is designed to safely meet the metabolic  and intestinal support needs of infants and young children. All species in DN Infant Probiotic produce predominantly  the L(+) isomer of lactic acid that can be safely metabolized by infants. DN Infant Probiotic is designed to support a normal infant microbiota that can be easily disrupted by cesarean section delivery, formula feedings, antibiotics, toxin exposures, or a variety of other factors.†

Supports normal maturation of an infant’s GI and immune system
Microbial colonization of the gastrointestinal tract, vital for normal gastrointestinal and immune system development, begins at  birth. However, this process can be disrupted by cesarean section delivery, hospitalization, formula feeding, antibiotic use, and various  exposures. If an infant is breastfed, a maternal diet lacking in fresh fruits and vegetables can also affect microbial colonization. DN Infant Probiotic offers select probiotic species that support neonatal microbiota balance and healthy GI and immune system maturation.†

Protects microbial balance
DN Infant Probiotic provides a blend of 10  different probiotic species. Research has shown that diverse probiotic strains are able to favorably shift the balance of gut microbiota towards more beneficial species by competing for nutrients and adhesion sites, producing compounds such as organic acids, hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins, and stimulating the body’s own healthy immune response.†

Supports healthy immune response
DN Infant Probiotic supplies five essential Lactobacillus species critical for healthy development of the infant immune  system and dendritic cell differentiation.  The five Bifidobacterium species provided  are normally predominant in the  neonatal microbiota and help enhance innate immunity and support healthy immune response.†

Designed for an infant’s  unique needs
An infant’s gastrointestinal tract is not  fully mature and cannot metabolize the  D(-) isomer of lactic acid produced by  certain Lactobacillus species often found  in adult probiotics, such as L. acidophilus  and L. reuteri. Ther-Biotic for Infants  contains Lactobacillus species that predominantly produce the L(+) isomer  of lactic acid, the  safe form for an  infant’s metabolism.
