Friendly bacteria for new mothers

Are you a new mother, navigating the beautiful journey of pregnancy or caring for your newborn? Congratulations on this incredible chapter of your life! As you prioritise the health and wellness of both yourself and your little one, consider the benefits of taking a friendly bacteria supplement.

Why should I consider friendly bacteria?

You already have trillions of bacteria living in your gut, collectively known as the gut microbiome and did you know that different types of bacteria do different things, or that it's very easy for the delicate balance in the gut microbiome to be disturbed. This is why many people like to take a friendly bacteria supplement.
