Supports healthy gut flora in young children* Promotes gastrointestinal health*. Includes 3 billion CFU per day from a combination of two strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis. HLC Neonate is a combination of four strains of proprietary, human-sourced probiotics that promotes intestinal health in young children. The human intestinal tract contains more than 400 bacterial species, and a healthy bacterial balance is necessary for a healthy gastrointestinal tract. Probiotics promote the presence of beneficial bacteria, and strengthen the epithelial barrier. Probiotics transiently impact the host’s microflora, as once their ingestion ends, they decline in numbers. As the microflora composition in children is relatively unchanged after infancy, it significantly depends on the diet.*
