You can also put the 1/4 tsp of powder into a small soy sauce dish, dip your finger in it and then either let baby suck it off your finger, or rub it around baby's gums. Keep going until all the powder has been consumed.


Suggested Use for Adults:Take 1/2 - 1 tsp. probiotic powder 1 to 3 times per day on an empty stomach (20 minutes before food, or 2 hours after food). You can mix the contents in room temperature water (best), or yoghurt.

Pregnant women: Beginning at the third trimester of pregnancy, take 1/2 to one teaspoon stirred into unchilled, filtered water daily, along with your own program of probiotic supplements.

Nursing mothers:While nursing your baby, continue taking your own Healthy Trinity®, plus 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of Life Start® stirred into unchilled, filtered water daily. If your child is a "lazy nurser," you may mix Life Start® well with a small amount of unchilled, filtered water and give by dropper, or even dab a little diluted Life Start® on your nipples.

*Note:

Lactobacillus acidophilussupplementation is not recommended for infants without the advice of a physician, as it is not the prominent beneficial microorganism in healthy, breast-fed infants. After weaning, acidophilus increases and Bifidobacteria colonize and become prominent in the large intestine. Life Start®, a milk-based probiotic for infants, should be carefully evaluated: With an increase in casein allergies in infants, please check babies for true milk allergies. You may use Life Start Goat milk-based probiotic instead.
