PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TruBiotics®, a science-backed probiotic supplement line for kids and adults, today unveiled its new TruBiotics Baby Drops and TruBiotics Kids Chewable supplements to help support digestive and immune health in infants and children. This is a hallmark moment for the company as it enters the infant market with its new baby probiotic supplement to deliver a full line of probiotic supplements in a variety of formats for the entire family. Both products are available for purchase on Amazon and will roll out to retail stores later this year.
New TruBiotics Baby Drops
TruBiotics Probiotic Baby Drops are designed to help soothe an upset stomach, reduce crying and fussiness, improve sleep duration, support regularity, reduce instances of loose stools, and increase beneficial bifidobacteria that is important to establish a healthy microbiome and support baby’s digestive development. TruBiotics Baby Drops feature 3 billion CFUs of Bifidobacterium animalis BB-12® in each dose and is free of sugar, milk, soy, and gluten. TruBiotics Baby Drops are formulated for newborns and older.
“I see many parents of infants trying to find any way they can to help soothe and comfort their fussy baby. It can be a stressful time for families with little ones, so I’m excited to see TruBiotics’ new baby drops feature the clinically researched probiotic strain BB-12 to address several challenges, including increased crying, and fussiness, which often result in a decreased quality of sleep for the infant. Getting restorative sleep is important not only for the developing infant brain but for everyone in the household,” said Lauren Crosby, M.D., FAAP, pediatrician in Beverly Hills and medical advisory board member to PanTheryx, distributor of TruBiotics.
A 2021 clinical study, published in the journal Beneficial Microbes, included 192 breastfed infants with colic that were 12 weeks of age or younger. For 21 days, the infants were given a liquid suspension 1 billion colony forming units (CFU) per day of BB-12® or a placebo. The infants who received the BB-12® probiotic strain had 50 percent fewer crying episodes, a 56 percent reduction in crying time per day, and an hour more of sleep per day. Parents also had significantly higher quality of life scores related to socio-emotional and physical functioning.
TruBiotics Kids Chewable Probiotic Supplement
TruBiotics also launched its new Kids Chewable probiotic supplements, which feature Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, the two most-clinically researched probiotic types to support digestive and immune heath for children. Each sugar-free chewable contains a minimum of 6 billion CFUs of BB-12® and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG combined. TruBiotics Kids Chewable supplements are designed for children ages 2 and older.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been studied for its ability to support immune and digestive health as well as skin health. Clinical studies using Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG have shown a reduction in missed daycare days due to illness in children. In addition, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG has been shown to improve stool frequency and consistency in children.
“We are thrilled to enter the infant probiotic market and expand our kids’ offerings with new products that feature well-researched probiotic strains that deliver live healthy microorganisms to the GI system,” commented Wes Parris, president and CEO, PanTheryx, distributor of TruBiotics. “We carefully develop our products based on several factors, including available clinical research on probiotic strains, the age of the consumer—infants, kids or adults—as well as consumers’ preferences for taking daily probiotics—droplet, capsules, chewables, and gummies. We will continue to explore ways to innovate and help consumers get the gut-healthy and immune-supporting benefits of high-quality probiotics in the formats they enjoy most.”
TruBiotics Baby Drops and Kids Chewable supplements join TruBiotics Sugar Free Gummies and adult capsules to create a complete line of products for the entire family. Visit Amazon.com to purchase TruBiotics Probiotic Baby Drops and TruBiotics Kids Chewable supplements.
