Life-Space Probiotic Powder for Babies 0–36 Months, 60g

How Many CFUs Does Your Baby Need?

For infants and toddlers, a daily dose of 5 to 10 billion colony-forming units (CFU) is generally recommended. Life-Space delivers 7.5 billion CFU per serving, striking an ideal balance for tiny tummies. Higher counts aren't necessarily better for babies; consistency and strain diversity matter more. Each serving is 1–2 grammes (1–2 level spoons), providing a gentle yet effective boost to the developing gut microbiome.

What Are Probiotics?

Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when consumed in adequate amounts, help maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria. For infants, establishing a robust gut microbiome early in life is crucial for digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune development. Life-Space Probiotic Powder is specially formulated for babies aged 0 to 36 months, offering 7.5 billion CFU per serving to support a healthy intestinal environment.

This premium Australian brand uses a multi-strain blend of probiotics and prebiotics designed to work synergistically. Prebiotics are non-digestible fibres that feed beneficial bacteria, making this a complete gut health solution. The powder is free from artificial flavours, colourants, dairy, gluten, and egg, ensuring it is gentle even for the most sensitive little ones.

Key Probiotic Strains and Their Benefits

Life-Space baby probiotic features a carefully selected combination of strains. While the exact strains are not listed in the available data, multi-strain formulae are generally more effective at supporting diverse gut flora. Common beneficial strains for infants include Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium lactis, and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Each strain offers unique advantages: some aid in breaking down food, others help maintain the intestinal barrier, and many contribute to a healthy immune response.

The inclusion of prebiotics encourages the growth of these good bacteria, maximising the benefits. This blend is based on clinical research, ensuring that each serving provides the support your baby needs for healthy digestion and overall wellbeing.

Choosing the Right Probiotic Supplement for Your Baby

When selecting a probiotic for your child, consider these features that set Life-Space apart:

• Multi-Strain + Prebiotic Blend: Combines beneficial bacteria with prebiotic fibres for comprehensive support of digestive health, nutrient absorption, and immune function.
• Australian Made: Life-Space is the #1 probiotic brand in Australia, known for stringent quality testing and naturally sourced ingredients.

This product is specifically formulated for babies from birth to 3 years, helping build a strong foundation for lifelong gut health.

When and How to Take Life-Space Probiotic Powder

Using the probiotic is simple: mix 1–2 level spoons (1–2 grammes) with your baby's milk, water, or soft food once daily. It can be given with or without food. The powder dissolves easily and has a neutral taste, so it won't alter the flavour of feeds. For best results, administer at a consistent time each day. Consult your paediatrician before starting any new supplement, especially for premature infants or those with underlying health conditions.

Potential Side Effects and Safety

Probiotics are generally well tolerated in healthy infants. Some babies may experience mild gas or bloating during the first few days as the gut adjusts. These symptoms typically resolve quickly. If you notice persistent discomfort or an allergic reaction, discontinue uses and consult a health care professional. Always ensure the powder is stored properly and used before the expiry date. Keep out of reach of children.
