BioticNatal™ is formulated according to current scientific evidence that demonstrates the vital role of the gastrointestinal (GIT) microbiome on the health and development of newborn infants. BioticNatal™ is intended for both the pregnant and breast feeding mother aiding to support and maintain the integrity and function of her own GIT and her immune system. BioticNatal™ may also be indicated to provide support for breast milk colonisation of beneficial bacterial species that can be transferred to the breast fed infant. Lactoferrin is a naturally occurring milk protein found in breast milk, providing antibacterial, antiviral and antiparasitic activity, protecting both the mother and the infant.
