Why BB-12® Probiotics are Essential for Your Child’s Digestive Health

When it comes to nurturing your child’s growth and well-being, digestive health plays a crucial role. At Ostricare, we prioritize the best for your little ones, which is why we’ve enriched our cow milk formula with BB-12® probiotics—one of the most extensively researched strains of beneficial bacteria. Let’s explore why BB-12® is essential for children’s digestive systems, where it comes from, and how it works in the body.

What Are BB-12® Probiotics?

BB-12® is the trademarked name for a specific strain of Bifidobacterium lactis, a probiotic bacteria naturally found in the intestines of healthy individuals. This probiotic strain has been rigorously studied for its safety and effectiveness in promoting gut health, particularly in children.

 

Why Is BB-12® Important for Your Child’s Digestive System?

Children’s digestive systems are still developing, making them more vulnerable to imbalances caused by diet, illness, or environmental factors. BB-12® probiotics help to:

  • Support a Healthy Gut Microbiota: Probiotics like BB-12® introduce beneficial bacteria that enhance the balance of gut flora, which is essential for proper digestion and nutrient absorption.
  • Boost Immunity: A significant portion of the immune system resides in the gut. By promoting gut health, BB-12® contributes to a stronger immune response, helping children fight off common illnesses.
  • Reduce Digestive Discomfort: BB-12® can alleviate issues like bloating, constipation, and diarrhea by supporting regular bowel movements and maintaining a healthy intestinal environment.

 

Where Does BB-12® Come From?

BB-12® is derived from natural sources and developed through advanced scientific research. It is carefully cultivated in controlled environments to ensure its purity and effectiveness. This process guarantees that the probiotics meet the highest safety standards for inclusion in products like Ostricare cow milk.

 

 

How Does BB-12® Work in the Digestive System?

Once consumed, BB-12® probiotics travel through the digestive tract and colonize in the intestines. Here’s how they benefit your child’s gut:

  1. Restoring Balance: BB-12® helps replenish beneficial bacteria, particularly after disruptions caused by antibiotics, illness, or dietary changes.
  2. Strengthening the Gut Barrier: This probiotic promotes the production of mucins, which help protect the intestinal lining and prevent harmful bacteria from entering the bloodstream.
  3. Producing Short-Chain Fatty Acids: BB-12® aids in the fermentation of dietary fibers, resulting in the production of short-chain fatty acids. These compounds provide energy to intestinal cells and help maintain a healthy gut environment.
