Both our children (1 and 3yrs) love having these in a bit of milk after their porridge in the morning. We think these are a really important part of growing and staying healthy.

Since giving my daughter optibac 5 months ago, she’s gone from a baby who had colds pretty often, to only having two! I highly recommend and can’t praise these enough

My eldest has been taking these for a couple of years. It has definitely helped boost his immune system. The condition of his skin is improved (he has eczema) and where he always used to suffer with frequent colds, this is now very rare. I started taking these after my youngest son was born. He's breastfeeding and began suffering with evening colic. What a difference they've made! We now have a happy baby and enjoyable evenings again! Not only that - I've noticed my milk supply has improved! I seriously can't recommend these highly enough. Thank you Optibac!
