What are probiotics?

Probiotics are dietary supplements, like vitamins and minerals.The word probiotic means ”for life” as opposed to antibiotic which means ”against life”. WHO defines probiotics as live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.

Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis is BioGaia’s own patented probiotic bacteria. Because Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis naturally occurs in the human body it is uniquely adapted to reside in humans. With its exceptional and documented health benefits in several areas, Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis is considered a truly superior probiotic bacterium. It has been proved to be effective and safe in clinical studies in both children and adults.

Preparation

Stir 1 sachet into 250 ml water. Boil the water if you are not sure of the water quality or use bottled water. Boiled water should be cooled before adding the BioGaia ProTectis ORS. When the ORS is mixed it should be used within 6 hours when stored in refrigerator and within 3 hours when stored in room temperature. This product should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet. The recommended daily dose should not be exceeded.

Important
Always use the volume of water stated. If the ORS is not mixed with enough water, the body will receive too much salt, which can be dangerous.

Always contact your child health centre or doctor if the child seems abnormally tired, does not want to drink or is not urinating.
