Properties

Acipol^® Kid is a probiotic for children from the first days of life, containing a complex of beneficial bacteria that help reduce the risk of dysbiosis in infants and normalize intestinal microflora from birth.

The action of the Acipol^® Kid product is due to the properties of its active components, lactobacilli Lactobacillus rhamnosus and bifidobacteria Bifidobacterium longum.

Lactobacilli (Lactobacillus rhamnosus)

Lactobacilli contribute to

• The synthesis of compounds that inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms;
• The formation of lactic acid (the acidic environment thus created has a beneficial effect on the development of bifidobacteria);
• Reducing the risk of microflora imbalance;
• Increasing the body’s nonspecific resistance;
• Increasing phagocyte activity and increasing the level of immunoglobulins (IgA);

Lactobacillus rhamnosus has an immunomodulatory effect and helps maintain oral health in children.

Bifidobacteria (Bifidobacterium longum)

Along with other representatives of the normal intestinal flora, bifidobacteria are actively involved in digestion and absorption, contribute to the processes of enzymatic digestion of food, normal intestinal peristalsis and evacuation of intestinal contents, synthesis of vitamins in the intestine, better absorption of nutrients, support normal processes of parietal digestion, and suppress the growth of pathogenic microflora.

Complexes containing lactobacilli and bifidobacteria (including Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium longum), according to a number of studies, are characterized by good tolerability, a favorable safety profile, and the ability to reduce the risk of functional gastrointestinal disorders.

The probiotic bacteria in Acipol^® Kid are widely used in the production of dairy food products and infant nutrition worldwide. They have not been genetically modified and are considered safe.

The beneficial bacteria in the Acipol^® Kid product help eliminate the manifestations of dysbiosis in newborns and infants.

Acipol^® Kid does not contain lactose, so it can be used to normalize the intestinal microflora in children with lactase deficiency.
