Lactibiane for children, is a multi-ingredient dietary supplement directed at healthy functioning and development of the youngest. Its task is to support proper work of the digestive system, shaping positive intestinal microbiome and immune responses. It may be also used on ad hoc basis in case of various problems that this age group often suffers from.

The presented dietary supplement is a combination of 5 probiotic bacteria strains with vitamin D and rapeseed oil, rich in vitamin E. An important aspect of the functioning of the preparation is the fact that all strains are registered in the French Pausteur Institute. Such an innovative combination of various ingredients enables optimal support of development and health both in children and adults.

Development of the immune system
The biggest, but often disregarded and skipped, investment of our life is health. It is worth taking care of health from the youngest years so that it can serve us for the whole life. One of the possibilities is shaping appropriate composition of intestinal microbiome in the young organism.

Proper composition of the set of microorganisms, inhabiting human immune system may play a large role in the development of young people. According to many, the most important matter is stimulation of the proper response of the immune system.

Bacteria and fungi of many kinds inhabit human digestive system from the moment of birth. They create a complicated system of dependencies with the immune system, taking part in its proper development. Proper composition of intestinal microbiome influences regulation of the activity of certain components of the immune system, including mainly the balance between the activity of lymphocytes Th₁ to Th₂ and regulatory lymphocytes. Disturbing this homeostasis, consisting in the dominance of the subpopulation Th₂ very often is the base for the development of allergy or asthma, more and more often appearing in children.

Probiotics may demonstrate in this matter a multi-directional, positive effect. First of all, they exhibit the ability to displace negative bacteria and fungi by strong abilities to bind with appropriate receptors in the intestinal wall and the synthesis of substances with inhibiting effect or killing harmful microbes. It may restore the balance in the intestinal microbiome, limiting the symptoms related to allergies or counteracting their development.

Secondly, probiotic bacteria may directly influence the immune system. Thanks to activating specific receptors and immune-competent cells, they influence the effect of regulatory lymphocytes, responsible for the balance between lymphocytes Th₁ and Th₂.

Vitamin D also plays a large role in the proper functioning of immunity. It was noticed that in the situations of deficiency, autoimmune diseases are most often observed, such as Hashimoto, allergy or asthma. It was proven in many scientific studies that it plays a role in shaping proper immune response. It influences proper work of regulatory lymphocytes and production of anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Healthy and strong bones
Skeletal system constitutes the basis for sustaining the whole body. Its proper development in childhood is one of the components of shaping health for long years of adulthood and elderly age. Vitamin D for ages has been a well-known substance, essential in this procedure, and its mechanism has been carefully tested.

Proper level of cholestadienol and its metabolites in the organism creates optimal conditions for mineralization of the skeletal system and teeth. This happens, as it regulates incorporating calcium ions in cells building this system – osteoblasts and stimulates their development and production.

Counteracting obesity
Excess weight and obesity become a more and more serious problem in developed societies. They are considered as a factor of the development of 80% civilization diseases, including diabetes type 2 and atherosclerosis. It is frightening that the occurrence of these disorders among young people or even children is growing.

Many specialists proved that both main ingredients of the supplement may be related to the occurrence of obesity. It was observed that deficiencies of vitamin D are observed much more frequently among people with excessive body mass. Therefore, they concluded that maintaining this vitamin on a proper level may in this case have prophylactic effect.

Also disorders in the composition of intestinal microbiome were noticed more often in people with obesity. Due to its properties of restoring balance in the composition of microbes, probiotics may be effective in counteracting or treating obesity. Precise mechanisms of the influence of lactic acid bacteria on weight loss are not known, however, it is suggested that it influences certain biochemical pathways, taking place in fatty cells and regulation of insulin balance in the organism.

Counteracting infections
A very common problem in children are viral and bacterial infections of the digestive system. They give symptoms of diarrhea, increased body temperature, weakness and vomiting. Proper stimulation of the organism’s immunity and taking care of the proper composition of intestinal microbiome may be effective both in prevention and mitigating symptoms related to these diseases.

Vitamin D, thanks to stimulating the immune system, may increase natural immune abilities of the organism. One of the mechanisms is the increase of the activity of macrophages – cells responsible for searching and destroying pathogen microbes. It also influences lymphocytes T and B, stimulating them to the fight with harmful microorganisms.

Probiotics, thanks to populating intestinal ecosystem and producing bacteriocins with properties similar to antibiotics, may also counteract this type of infections. It was also proven that some bacteria strains may shorten the time of severe and post-antibiotic diarrheas.

Vitamin E
Under this name there is the whole group of substances, called tocopherols. They are engaged in many mechanisms, conditioning proper functioning of the organism. Vitamin E demonstrates strong antioxidant properties. It is also engaged in shaping immunity and healthy work of the nervous system.

Summing up, Lactibiane for children is an innovative dietary supplement with multidirectional pro-health effect on the youngest. The content of vitamin D supports proper development of the skeletal system and may strengthen immunity to various infections. Carefully selected probiotic strains may play a large role in shaping proper intestinal microbiome, which finds application in regulating the work of the immune system. The preparation may be used on ad hoc basis as support in the treatment of digestive system infections.
