Intro:
A healthy gut = a healthy child! Your kid’s digestive system plays a big role in absorbing nutrients and fighting off bugs.
Body:
Research in Frontiers in Microbiology (Milani et al., 2017) shows that probiotics can help balance gut bacteria, reduce tummy troubles, and support immunity in kids.
Add yogurt, kefir, or fermented veggies to their diet. A kid-safe probiotic supplement might help too — always check with your pediatrician.
✅ Practical Tips:
-
Offer fiber-rich snacks like fruits and whole grains.
-
Limit sugary foods that feed bad bacteria.
-
Keep kids hydrated!
Closing:
Gut health today means strong, resilient kids tomorrow.
