Customer Questions
All questions answered by Kerry Beeson BSc (Nut. Med.) Nutritional Therapist.
Can you give a child too many friendly bacteria?
Live cultures are very safe for children1,2 and it's not thought to be possible to ‘overdose’ on them, so don’t worry about giving your child too many. However, there’s no reason to use more than they need and in general, it is best to give them the recommended dosage. Optibac Babies & Children provides the recommended daily dose of 3 billion live cultures per sachet.
Is Optibac Babies & Children a vegetarian supplement?
Yes, Optibac Babies & Children is vegetarian. There is no dairy present at any stage of the manufacturing, the probiotic strains are vegan but the added Vitamin D3 is vegetarian. It is also gluten-free.
How to Use
Preparation
- Best taken with a meal, preferably with breakfast
- Simply mix with your child's favourite cool, non-acidic foods or drinks – try sprinkling the powder over cereal, mixing it with yogurt, or dissolve in water or milk.
- Can be taken with formula milk - simply add to the bottle once it has cooled down to room temperature (as heat reduces the viability of natural bacteria).
- For breastfed babies, powder can be applied to nipple or clean finger for baby to suckle.
