Elevit Probiotics for pregnancy and breastfeeding offer a scientific formula with probiotic strains to support immunity and gut health.
Elevit Probiotics is designed to be taken alongside Elevit with Iodine pregnancy multivitamin or Elevit Breastfeeding.
Probiotics are live microorganisms (bacteria and yeast) that are good for you. Probiotics are often called “good” or “helpful” bacteria as they support health in different ways, such as helping your immune system function properly, promoting digestive system function, and aiding nutrient absorption.
The body is home to approximately 100 trillion microorganisms, known as the microbiome. Most of these microbes (mainly bacteria) live in the gut.
Impact of the first 1000 days on the microbiome
The first 1000 days of a baby's life, from conception to their 2nd birthday, are a critical period for their long-term health. Contact with beneficial bacteria early in life can support the development and maturation of the immune system. By the age of three, a child’s microbiome starts to resemble the microbiome of an adult.
The makeup of the mother’s microbiome changes during pregnancy and is extremely influential. Factors like whether a baby was born vaginally or via C-section, at home or in hospital, can affect the composition of the baby’s microbiome.
