Infloran® Carefully selected for your child’s first 1000 days
The first 1000 days are crucial for shaping our microbiome.
Influenced by many factors including prematurity, mode of delivery, environment, antibiotic use and diet this diverse microbial community plays a pivotal role in our health for our entire lives.
The gut microbiota of a healthy infant is populated predominately with Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species. They help balance and restore intestinal bacterial flora, preventing colonization by pathogens, improving the maturity and function of gut mucosal barrier and modulating the immune system.
If this microbial community becomes disturbed, often referred to as dysbiosis it can present with many symptoms.
