Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

A mother’s healthy microbiome and breast milk (a main source of nutrition for her infant), can have a significant impact on the overall health of both baby and mother as well as the establishment of a baby’s own microbiome.

Qiara may be particularly useful as a supplement where a mother's natural microbiome may be disrupted by external factors such as antibiotics, as a treatment for infection or after a c-section, or in GBS positive mothers.

Qiara for Your Baby

Breastmilk is your baby's best source of essential nutrients and specific probiotic bacterial strains essential for healthy digestion and immune system development. It is beneficial to provide your baby with breastmilk and it's benefits for as long as possible.

Supplementation of your baby's diet with Qiara, particularly during and post weaning, can help build and maintain your child's microflora system.

Dosage

Add contents of one sachet to your infant's prepared bottle or cup and stir, immediately prior to feeding once daily. For infants 1-4 months, use half a sachet.  Open sachet can be used for 2 days from opening if stored at 2-8C (refrigerate, do not freeze).  Probiotic powder may be added to water, milk or soft food such as yoghurt.

The Qiara Guarantee

Isolated from breastmilk

Lactobacillus Fermentum CECT 5716 is a probiotic isolated from breast milk which:

So it's safe for both mother and baby and may play a critical role in establishing a healthy microbiome of the infant for life.

Single strain: The difference between promises and results is research. It is important to select the right probiotic strain researched for and suited to your needs.

Many probiotic companies provide broad spectrum probiotics containing multiple strains in a single dose. However, clinical trials for probiotics are usually conducted with a single strain rather than with mulitple strains, and it is unclear how multiple strains in a single dosage may interact with or inhibit each other.  That is why Qiara Pregnancy & Breastfeeding contains 3 billion microorganisms of Lactobacillus Fermentum CECT 5716, the same dosage of a single strain used in clinical trials.
