How much powder should I give my child per day?
Dosage depends on age. Children from 0 to 5 years old are recommended to take 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) 1 to 3 times a day. Children from 6 to 12 years old - 1/2-1 teaspoon up to 3 times a day. The exact dosage should be agreed with a doctor or pediatrician.
If a child is taking antibiotics, take the probiotic powder at least 2-3 hours before or after taking the medication - this is the standard recommendation for most probiotic supplements.
How to add powder to food and drinks
The powder has no pronounced taste, so it is easy to mix into the child's usual diet. The manufacturer offers several options: stir in water or juice, add to smoothies, sprinkle on porridge, fruit or yogurt. The temperature of the food matters: to preserve live cultures, it is better to avoid hot foods and drinks.
To maintain the activity of the cultures, it is recommended to store the vial in the refrigerator after opening.
7-Strain Formula: Why the Number of Strains Matters
A multi-strain probiotic complex covers a wider range of microorganisms than single-component products. Each strain occupies its own niche in the intestinal microbiome and may differ in terms of survival conditions, attachment to the intestinal wall and interaction with other microorganisms. The BigFriends formula combines 7 cultures in one powder, making it a more complete option for a child's daily diet.
Big Friends Multi-Probiotic is positioned as a source of live organisms that temporarily alter the intestinal flora, support healthy digestion, and aid in nutrient absorption. It is a dietary supplement, not a drug.
Who is this format suitable for?
The powder form is convenient for infants and young children who have difficulty swallowing capsules or chewing tablets. The lack of sugar and gluten makes the product acceptable for children with relevant dietary restrictions. The formula is suitable for vegetarians.
Adults can also use this probiotic complex - the dosage for adults should be clarified with a specialist or based on the dose for children 6-12 years old as the minimum.
Storage conditions
The manufacturer recommends storing the product in the refrigerator to maximize the preservation of culture activity. This is a standard condition for most probiotics in powder form: low temperature slows down the metabolism of the bacteria and extends the period of their activity until the moment of intake.
