TRANSCRIPT
Babies need healthy bacteria
Probiotics must meet three criteria
Prior to birth, babies have little or no bacteria in their gut. Bacteria begin to colonise the gut soon after birth. While these bacteria can come from a variety of sources, breast milk plays an important role in the colonisation process.Breast milk is the ideal way to feed a baby, but when an infant is unable to be breastfed then a suitable infant formula is required. Formula fed infants need healthy bacteria (or probiotics) to help colonise their gut. The right probiotics can help improve intestinal function as well as aid immune system development and help prevent allergies. Fonterra has developed two probiotic strains, sourced from dairy cultures, which meet the FAO and WHO requirements of probiotics and deliver proven health benefits for infants.
ProtectionSome probiotic strains can
help prevent pathogenic bacteria from gaining
nutrient space in the gut, inhibiting the ability for
them to grow and thrive. Surestart™’s probiotic strains
have been shown to reduce incidence of respiratory infections, pneumonia, fever and some other
childhood illnesses. (see research Trial A and Trial C)
Supporting immunitySelect probiotic strains may help balance the immune system by enhancing the activity of immune cells associated with protection against pathogens and promoting tolerance to non-threatening antigens. In human trials, consumptionof Surestart™’s probiotic strains have consistently shown immune enhancing attributes.(see research Trial A, Trial B and Trial C)

Effective:Research trials with Bifidobacterium lactis (SureStart™ BifidoB 019)
Conclusion SureStart™ BifidoB 019 deliver a range of clearly defined and demonstrable health benefits for formula fed infants. This includes reduced incidence of common childhood illnesses such as respiratory infection, decreased severity of illness, and a lower rate of prescribed medication.
Trial C Immunity & Protection: 12 week trial with 192 infants aged 6-12 months, showed that supplementation with SureStart™ BifidoB 019 resulted in reduced rates of physician confirmed infections and need for prescribed antibiotic or antiviral medication. Source: Dekker et al 2012
