One of the key benefits of a Pregnancy Probiotic is to provide the various types of live probiotic bacteria that are found in a healthy vagina. This ensures that baby born through the birth canal will be exposed to a range of beneficial bacteria that are required to start the development of baby's immune system, which in turn will provide for a life time of good health. This is very important as a baby is essentially sterile until it enters the birth canal, at which point the bacteria start to arrive - and they don’t stop. From a mother’s vaginal bacteria, hugs and kisses from relatives, to eating dirt in the back yard, the exposures of newborns and toddlers in their earliest years is critical to the development of the immune system, which in turn will set up baby for a life time of good health. Clinical studies have repeatedly shown that a 6 Billion daily dose of Lactobacillus rhamnosus from week 32 of pregnancy, and then for 6 months when breastfeeding reduces the risk of children from developing allergies such as eczema or hayfever by 44% (Wicken's 2013). All probiotic strains used are clinically proven to be acid & bile resistant, and to survive the harsh conditions through the stomach, on the way to the intestines. The prebiotic fibre Litesse is added as a food source to the live beneficial bacteria (Probiotic strains), which stimulates their growth along the wall of the digestive tract. 100% Natural.
