Fussiness, Crying, and Colic How Can I help my Baby? Biogaia probiotics are the #1 Doctor recommended product for colic and stomach problems in infants and toddlers!Studies in infants and children have shown the following results:

• Infants supplemented with Lactobacillus reuteri during their first year of life were colonized to a high degree, as live L. reuteri cells were detected in the faeces in rates between 63% and 80%.
• L. reuteri decreased the risk of community acquired bacterial and fungal infections in young children, including infants in day care and high-risk preterm infants nursed in intensive care units.
• L. reuteri reduced the risk of allergic symptoms in infants 0-24 months old and in another study also in older children.
• Daily intake of L. reuteri is safe: preterm newborns in intensive care have been given L. reuteri for up to a month, and term newborns for up to 12 months, without any adverse events.
• Studies on gut function and different gastrointestinal symptoms/disorders have shown several effects:

• increased tolerance to formula feeding in preterm infants
• significant reduction in hospital stay in preterm infants in intensive care
• reduction of crying time in infantile colic
• shortened duration of diarrhoea and other gut infection symptoms in children hospitalized for acute diarrhoea
• reduction of frequency and severity of side-effects of antibiotic treatment in children
