What effect does probiotics have on children's intestinal health?

Probiotics have many effects on children's intestinal health, including the following aspects:

1. Regulating the balance of intestinal flora: Probiotics can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and promote the reproduction of beneficial bacteria, thus maintaining the balance between beneficial bacteria and harmful bacteria in the intestine.

2. Enhance immunity: Probiotics can stimulate the intestinal immune system, improve children's resistance, and prevent intestinal infections and allergic reactions.

3. Promote digestion: Probiotics can decompose protein, fat and carbohydrates in food, and help children better absorb nutrients.

4. Relieve constipation and diarrhea: Probiotics can regulate intestinal peristalsis and relieve constipation and diarrhea symptoms.

5. Reduce the risk of allergic diseases: Probiotics can regulate the immune system and reduce the risk of allergic diseases (such as asthma and allergic rhinitis) in children.

6. Promote growth and development: Probiotics can synthesize some substances beneficial to growth and development, such as vitamin K and B vitamins, which are helpful to children's growth and development.

Therefore, supplementing probiotics to children helps to maintain intestinal health and promote growth and development. However, it should be noted that not all probiotics are suitable for children to eat, so when choosing probiotic products, we should choose the appropriate products according to children's age, health status and needs. If in doubt, please consult a professional doctor.
