Product Details
Children, just like adults, have diverse and evolving nutritional needs, such as compounds to support a healthy gastrointestinal system. A growing number of experts now believe that the early years are of great importance in populating the gastrointestinal tract with friendly, beneficial bacteria.
NOW® BerryDophilus™ is a combination of probiotic bacterial strains which support immune system function as well as gastrointestinal health. Healthy intestinal flora also help to create a favorable environment for the absorption and utilization of nutrients. Each animal shaped, berry-flavoured chewable contains 750 million organisms from a blend of four strains that yields 2.5 billion organisms at the time of manufacturing. BerryDophilus™ are sweetened with xylitol, a naturally-occurring sugar alcohol (1.2 g of sugar alcohol per tablet) that contributes to its great taste, without harming teeth. Free of dairy and gluten.
Directions
For Children (age 6 & up) and Adults: Chew 1 tablet 1 to 2 times daily at least 2 to 3 hours before or after taking antibiotics. Keep refrigerated to maintain high potency.
