If you are pregnant or have been, you familiar with one of the symptoms of being pregnant is feeling bloated and constipated. Worry not, in this article, I would like to share about Biogaia's Probiotics which is in chewable tablet form. First and foremost, Biogaia's probiotics are safe for pregnant and breastfeeding moms! Their drops are even suitable for newborn to 3 years and above!
What are Probiotics you may wonder...? Our lives have been controlled and surrounded by bacteria, good & bad. Probiotics are good bacteria. Probiotics provide a health benefit by favorably contributing healthy bacteria to your microflora. WHO even defines probiotics as live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. 80% of the immune system can be directly linked to the gastrointestinal wall which makes a healthy intestinal mucosa and a balanced microbiota essential for a well functioning immune system.
BioGaia probiotics come in 2 types which is BioGaia Probiotic drops and Chewable tablet.
When to choose Probiotic drops:-
➤ Children 0 - 3 years old
When to choose Chewable tablet:-
➤ Children 4 - 18 years old (make sure kids know how to chew and swallow)
➤ Adults (Safe for pregnant & Lactating moms)
In this review, I will review on the chewable tablet, which is a natural probiotic supplement designed for children and adults. Biogaia is special that it contains the natural probiotic strain Lactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri).
Microbial transfer is recommended from pregnancy, and up to 1000 days after birth for the life-long health of the infant. Biogaia probiotic supplementation is an efficient way I found out as it is derived from human mother's milk. At times with low breastmilk supply, I won't feel guilty giving formula milk as I compensate my baby with BioGaia.
Benefits of Biogaia L. reuteri
➧ Able to reduce the severity and intensity of stomach pain in children (start at age 4-7 & 8 -12 years), which caused by functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID).
➧ Able to reduce constipation in adults (especially women and elderly as well as pregnant mothers).
➧ It safeguards our immune system. L. reuteri acts as an active antibody T cell to boost our immune system.
➧ It tightens the mucosa, improves the barrier function of the gut which means faster recovery from pathogen infections.
➧ Able to reduce the incidence and severity of antibiotic treatment side effects, diarrhea and nausea.
➧ Able to reduce atopic eczema by strengthening our immune system
➧ Able to increase anti-inflammatory factors in milk and enhance babies' immunity. It also helps prevent allergies before birth
The recommended dosage for Biogaia Chewable Tablet:
- 1-2 tablets a day
Biogaia Chewable tablets:-
It came in an orange and white box, due to it contains live bacteria, it must be kept cool in the refrigerator.
Behind the package, Biogaia has some simple explanation about their products. It even included recommendation dose, ingredients, storage, marketing authorization holder, licenced & manufactured by.
1 box contains 30 lemon-flavored tablets, each is capsulated in aluminum blisters packing. The tablet is a small white pill.
Taste: It actually tasted like our normal Vitamin C tablet supplement. It also has a citrus flavor when chewed.
Result: I had been taking BioGaia Chewable tablets for 3 weeks, 1 tablets a day. An obvious difference that I noticed is that my constipation problem has slight improvements! I usually only need to go around 3-4 days now has reduced to 1-2 days. My bloated stomach feeling also reduced as less burping, and less feeling "full". Appetite also slightly increased due to frequent nausea & vomiting due to early pregnancy symptoms. Overall I would recommend & continue to consume this product.
