Probiotic supplement that relieves colic symptomsHelps relieve symptoms of infantile colic such as crying, fussiness, or irritabilityDecreases crying duration and frequency in 7 daysEffective for bottle-fed and breast-fed babiesSupports gastrointestinal healthHMF Baby Drops contains two clinically studied probiotic strains, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum (KABP™-042) and Pediococcus pentosaceus (KABP™-041); these strains help relieve symptoms of infantile colic such as crying, fussiness, or irritability. Infantile colic, or excessive crying syndrome, is a behavioral syndrome that occurs in babies 1 to 5 months old and is characterized by prolonged periods of crying and behavior that is difficult to soothe. Infantile colic is classified as a functional gastrointestinal disease and is one of the main reasons for consulting a pediatrician during the first 3 or 4 months of a baby's life. Research has shown that the intestinal bacteria of babies with colic are less diverse than those of other children, suggesting that differences in the intestinal microflora play an important role in the pathogenesis of colic. According to a recent clinical study, babies who received the combination of probiotics, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum (KABP™-042) and Pediococcus pentosaceus (KABP™-041) contained in HMF Baby Drops experienced an increase in the diversity of the intestinal microbiome and a 69% decrease in crying duration. The combination of probiotics in HMF Baby Drops has been shown to help relieve the symptoms of infant colic in both breastfed and bottle-fed babies.
