BioGaia Probiotics Review and Giveaway

BioGaia is a world leader in probiotics.   They have three safe and convenient forms of probiotics that promote healthy digestive tracks and immune systems; a 5mL bottle of drops, a 30-count pack of chewable tablets and a 30-count pack of straws.  The drops, shown to significantly reduce symptoms of colic, are best for infants and toddlers because they can be added to a liquids or foods. The chewable tablets or straws work well for older children and are effective in preventing common tummy upsets.  All three of the forms support overall gut health.

Why use probiotics?

Because probiotics are live friendly bacteria that are good for your health. By balancing the natural intestinal flora probiotics have health promoting benefits for the digestive and immune systems.

Serious Tested:  Our girls are very healthy girls; on the rare occasion that they are on antibiotics,  their guts get a little off balance.  When I notice this happening, I have immediately reached for some form of probiotics.  I typically would buy a capsule and sprinkle it in their food or drinks.   I really like that BioGaia has a dropper form of the probiotics.  These would have come in really handy with #2 when she was a super colicky baby. 

The straws are easy to use and can be placed in any drink to ingest the probiotics for toddlers and preschoolers.

I actually took the citrus flavored tablets to see if I noticed any different in my gut.  I typically have a sensitive stomach and I think it helped slightly with that.  However, I wasn’t really having any issues during the time I took it.

Win It: BioGaia would like to offer you a choice of the three products: a 5mL bottle of drops, or a 30-count chewable tablet packet or a 30-count pack of straws to a lucky Really, Are You Serious? reader.

For your first entry:  Tell me who you would win this for and which of the three forms you would like.
