Is BioGaia Protectis Baby + Vitamin D suitable from birth?

BioGaia Protectis Baby + Vitamin D Drops are suitable for full-term newborns and young children, providing support from the very first days of life through early childhood. If your baby was born prematurely or has specific medical needs, speak to a healthcare professional before starting any supplement.

What makes the probiotic strain in BioGaia Protectis Baby + Vitamin D special?

The drops contain L. reuteri Protectis (DSM 17938), a strain that naturally colonises humans and has been tested extensively in infants and children. Research suggests it helps maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria and has been widely studied in relation to infant colic and digestive comfort.

How does the vitamin D in the drops help my baby?

Each daily serving provides 10 µg of vitamin D3, which supports normal immune system function and contributes to healthy bone growth and development in children. This can be especially important in regions with limited sunlight exposure or during the winter months.

Can these drops be used alongside other baby vitamins or probiotics?

The product is designed as a standalone supplement supplying both a probiotic and vitamin D. If you are considering using it alongside other vitamin D products or probiotics, consult your GP, paediatrician or health visitor to avoid overlapping nutrients unnecessarily.
