Let the kids eat bugs! Lifeway Organic Probug that is – probiotics for children
Posted Oct 21 2008 12:00am
Lifeway Probugs™ is a new line of organic whole milk kefir that will appeal to kids with its fun packaging and yummy flavors. Probugs have 10 live and active cultures to help kids’ tummies and immune system stay healthy. They also are high in protein and calcium, with added inulin for optimum calcium absorption. (See the Lifeway website for Probugs nutritional information.)
The drinks come in packaging that is easy to grip even by the littlest hands. Probugs don’t spill, and can be resealed for later use. They’re very portable, which makes them a great healthy on the go snack, too.
What’s all the fuss about probiotics?
Probiotics have been found to be helpful for people with IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) but not eczema. Studies have shown that using probiotics can help treat gastrointestinal problems, delay kids from developing allergies, and treat or prevent vaginal and urinary infections in women, according to the Harvard Medical School Family Health Guide.
As you probably know if you stroll by the yogurt aisle once in awhile, probiotic drinks are a big trend. Dannon, Yoplait, and Lifeway all have probiotic products and even my local milk supplier, Diamond D Dairy, has produced their own called Yoforia.
