How Do the Active Ingredients Function in this Product?

Lactobacillus spp: Common inhabitants of the human body, this genus contains some of the  most well-known probiotic organisms. Strains of lactobacilli have been found to support  immunity and produce substances that help promote a healthy digestive tract.*

Bifidobacterium spp: Organisms that colonize the gut shortly after birth and are integral in the healthy functioning of the adult digestive tract. Strains of bifidobacteria are known to produce healthy short-chain fatty acids, modulate immune response and promote greater tolerance to dairy products.*

Inulin-FOS: Soluble fiber extracted from chicory that provides nutritional support to beneficial bacteria and may promote regularity.*

Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus®

Beneficial and commensal bacteria interact with our bodies on the front lines of the immune system—in the digestive tract. As such, they play an extremely important role in both the health of the digestive tract and the immune system throughout our lifetimes. Evidence suggests that the framework of an individual’s intestinal flora is established from a very young age. For instance, it is known that probiotic bacteria, particularly species from the genus Bifidobacterium, are transferred from mother to child via breast milk. It is important that infants are exposed to the most beneficial types of bacteria, regardless of their environment or method of feeding.*

The Bifidobacterium Genus
Bifidobacteria, especially Bifidobacterium bifidum, are the predominant intestinal organisms found in breast-fed infants. These probiotics compete with undesirable bacteria for living space and nutrients. Moreover, the metabolites of bifidobacteria (acetic acid, lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins) suppress other microorganisms, including gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In fact, some species of Bifidobacteria (including B. lactis, B. breve and B. longum) appear to bind to the intestinal mucosa.*

The Lactobacillus Genus
Lactobacillus refers to a genus of friendly bacteria that, like Bifidobacteria, produce lactic acid and make up many of the 400 normal probiotic species in the human body. Lactobacilli provide
many benefits, including the following:*

• Inducing growth factors and increasing the bioavailability of minerals*
• Stabilizing the mucosal barrier and decreasing intestinal permeability*
• Producing lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide to support a balanced intestinal ecology*
• Modulating immune function in healthy people and those with immune system hypersensitivity
• Balancing Candida albicans growth

Fructooligosaccharides
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are fiber-like polysaccharides that occur in a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and cereals. Fructooligosaccharides are “prebiotics” that promote the growth and activity of probiotic bacteria that produce acids, such as Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, in the gut FOS may even help promote healthy bowel movement.*

Refrigerating Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus
Keep Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus refrigerated! If you take Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus with you on a trip, keep it out of the heat. The bacteria can survive for a reasonable amount of time out of the refrigerator; however, keeping the product refrigerated extends the viability of the probiotic organisms.

Baby’s Jarro-Dophilus® contains superior, scientifically documented strains. Clinical studies have documented the benefits of B. breve M-16V and B. longum BB536 (Morinaga) in infants and young children. FOS is a natural fiber which enhances the growth of beneficial probiotic bacteria.*
