As a parent, you do so much to make sure your kids are receiving the nutrients they need for a healthy, well-rounded diet. But with picky eaters or busy, active children, making sure their digestive systems are running smoothly can be tricky. If this sounds like something you can relate to, read on and find out how to keep kids’ digestive systems at their best with the help of fiber and probiotics.*
Fiber, Fiber, Fiber!
Fiber works in harmony with the body to help gently balance your kids digestive function and get them feeling their best.* Do your best to work the following items into your child’s everyday diet to keep fiber intake and digestion consistent:
- Apples
- Pears
- Beans (Black, Pinto and Kidney)
- Baked potatoes1
Fiber is only one part of the equation when considering digestive health. Although fiber plays a helpful role in keeping things moving along, when it comes to overall digestive support, a probiotic is just what the tummy ordered.*
Probiotic Benefits for Kids
Probiotics are the good bacteria found in your digestive tract.* If that weren’t enough, they help restore the natural balance of good bacteria in the intestines to help reduce gas, bloating and occasional diarrhea.* In other words, they help keep kids feeling their best!*
Though certain foods contain probiotics, it’s often difficult to gauge how many or what kind are present in them. That’s where probiotic supplements like Culturelle® Kids Probiotics come in handy.
Probiotics and Fiber—Together at Last
New Culturelle® Kids Probiotic + Fiber contains 2.5 billion colony-forming units of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Plus, 3.5 grams of dietary fiber, the equivalent of five prunes, sourced from whole fruit kiwi and—a prebiotic vegetable fiber from chicory root.
To make it even more convenient, Culturelle® Kids Probiotic + Fiber Formula comes in an easy, flavorless powder that can be mixed into your child’s favorite food, like applesauce or yogurt.
