Infectious Gastroenteritis

Gastroenteritis is a very contagious condition. It can spread rapidly within families, playgroups and nurseries.

Clinical studies have shown that consuming GG probiotic regularly can reduce the incidence of gastroenteritis in babies and children.

GG probiotic given to babies and young infants reduced their risk of contracting diarrhoea by almost 80%.

Lactobacillus GG reduces the risk of developing diarrhoea. [Szajewska et al. 2001]

In another study, children living in unhygienic conditions were given GG probiotic in jelly, over 15 months. The researchers found that breastfeeding protected the children from developing acute gastroenteritis. Of those toddlers who were not breastfed, GG probiotic reduced the occurrence of acute diarrhoea throughout the study period.

Incidence of diarrhoea in children not receiving breastfeeds. [Oberhelman et al. 1999]
