Do you have a child with colic or acid reflux? |
| |
by Anna Derhak, Nutrition Educator
As a parent you may ask yourself, "Why is this
happening to my baby?" My mother asked that
question because I had colic. As a nutritionist I
recommend the same nutritional intervention that my
mother used. Three weeks after she began giving me
beneficial bacteria my colic disappeared like magic.
Recent research conducted in England reveals that a
number of children lack sufficient beneficial bacteria,
which can result in colic and acid reflux. The bacteria
that is most important for digestion is bifidobacteria.
Breast milk is our first source of bifidobacteria.
However, sometimes-even breastfed babies need
additional bifidobacteria. As a new mother, I found
that supplementing my daughter's feedings with
bifidobacteria stopped her colic also.
about heart health from a different perspective: The
key contributor to heart disease is inflammation.
Some babies do not experience colic, but they suffer
from acid reflux and are put on prescription
medications to manage it. Those mothers may not
realize that bifidobacteria could resolve acid reflux
naturally. Clinically, I have seen bifidobacteria work as
well for acid reflux as it does for colic. Research
shows that bifidobacteria supplementation for babies
also result in up to 50% reduction in asthma, allergies
and ADD.
Tune in to Dishing Up Nutrition this Saturday at 2:00
p.m. to learn more ways
to improve intestinal health in children and how to
feed picky eaters.

We have many clients who love this recipe. It is great
for a snack or even breakfast and kids love it!! My
daughter Isabelle is a huge fan!! It is very balanced
nutritionally and it has plenty of good bacteria in it from
the yogurt.

| Bifidobacteria for balanced intestinal health |
| |
Bifidobacteria is the same supplement my mother
used 25 years ago to stop my colic. We offer a
product from Metagenics called Ultra Bifidus. It
comes as a fine powder that can easily be added to
water or food. It has no flavor and can be started with
as little as a pinch for extremely sensitive people. For
most, I recommend that my clients start on 1/8 tsp of
Ultra bifidus two or three times a day.

shorts and t-shirts. That also means great tasting,
