Pro-Ven Biotics Fit for School contains 12.5 billion unique Lab4 acidophilus and bifidus-friendly bacteria in each stick pack. These friendly bacteria are combined with vitamins C and D to support your child's immune function.
The one-a-day powder can be taken straight from the pack or added to food or drink. The sweet taste comes from the prebiotic FOS (fructooligosaccharides) fibre, which helps to feed the friendly bacteria.
Fit for School was shown to reduce school absenteeism by 30% when taken daily for six months. It was used in the ProChild Study where they tested Lab4 probiotics with vitamin C to see if they help reduce cough and cold symptoms in young children, who are most at risk.
Pro-Ven is one of the worlds most respected producers of probiotics. The strains used in Pro-Ven Biotics were originally isolated from the gut microbiota of healthy humans and screened for appropriate characteristics and safety. These strains are naturally present in our intestines, but their numbers can be reduced due to the stresses of our modern lifestyle.
The stomach is an acidic environment and friendly bacteria need to be able to survive this to reach the microbiota in the intestines. Pro-Ven Biotics are held in suspension in their various formats until they reach the stomach.
