Recently,
as several people suffering from coronavirus complain about diarrhea and
abdominal pain, there is a growing interest in intestinal and immune health.
Coronavirus disease can
cause a wide range of symptoms, and the most common are respiratory symptoms. However,
it can cause gastrointestinal symtoms, and it appears to be more common in
children than in adults.
As
70~80% of immune cells are present in the intestine, which means the intestine
represents the largest compartment of the immune system. When your intestine is
unbalanced, it can increase your risk of getting chronic diseases and lowering
your immunity. Therefore, taking good care of your intestines is important for
keeping your body healthy and having a stronger immune system.
Ofmom,
a maternal and infant healthcare company, launched the Baby Formula Mate. The Baby
Formula Mate is a probiotic product specializing in infant’s intestinal health
and immune system. The Baby Formula Mate is widely trusted by parents in China
for its leading manufacturing technology and research capacity.

Baby Formula Mate is made of a combination of selected European patented
strains. It includes bifidobacterium breve M-16V, one of the predominant
species in the infant intestines, bifidobacterium lactis HN019, which is known
to help bowel movement, and lactobacillus rhamnosus NH001.

Baby Formula Mate contains five billion active bacteria per sachet. It uses prebiotics
and probiotics together so that it further promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria
and preserves the normal intestinal flora.
At
the same time it doesn’t contain any food additives and artificial colors, so
parents can feed their babies without worrying about the food safety matter.
An
official from Ofmom said, "Steady intake of probiotics is a good way to
promote digestion, absorption and nutrient metabolism in the intestines. It
also strengthens immunity and alleviates intestinal diseases such as diarrhea
and constipation."
