Why do I need to discard the Baby Probiotic Drops Skin Support after 8 weeks?

When handled and stored as directed (protected from contamination, well closed, in a cool dry place, out of direct sunlight), unopened product should remain safe to consume until the expiration date printed on its packaging.

What are probiotics? Are they safe?

Probiotics are living microorganisms (often bacteria, sometimes yeasts) that scientific research has shown to be beneficial to human health. In some cases they’re similar to, or the same as, the microbes already found in a healthy digestive tract. Many probiotics were originally isolated from common fermented foods, such as yogurt. Our Baby Probiotic Drops Skin Support contain the live culture Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001, which has been extensively studied from early infancy through elder age, as well as in pregnant and lactating women.

When is the best time of day to give my baby probiotics?

Do babies need probiotics?

Probiotics are living microorganisms (often bacteria, sometimes yeasts) that scientific research has shown to be beneficial to human health.

Where does the Vitamin D in your Probiotic + Vitamin D Drops come from?

What is the normal color and texture of the probiotics?

Our probiotic drops contain non-GMO corn or sunflower oil, which has a mild taste and a light yellow tint. Because we microencapsulate the probiotic to protect it as it travels to the gut to do its job, it appears as whitish clumps or sand-like grains suspended in the pale yellow oil. These will settle out on standing, though in some cases the microencapsulated beads can form a plug in the neck of the bottle that’s noticeable when you open it. Shake well to redistribute the beads before giving to your baby.
