Directions & Dosage :

Food supplement suitable for infants (from birth) and children up to 12 years old.

Preparation:

Simply mix with your child's favourite foods or drinks - sprinkle the powder over cereal, mix in with yoghurt or dissolve in a glass of water or cold milk.

Can be taken with formula milk - simply add to the bottle once it has cooled down to room temperature (as heat reduces the viability of natural bacteria).

For breastfed babies, powder can be applied to nipple or clean finger for baby to suckle.

Adults & children should ideally drink plenty of water during a course of live cultures.

Best taken with a meal, preferably with breakfast.

Recommended amount: Infants from birth to 3 years: 1 sachet per day
