Smidge® Sensitive Probiotic (formerly GutPro® capsules) Smidge Sensitive Probiotic, now in a convenient oral capsule, brings the same trusted GutPro formula to those always on-the-go. This super clean, potent, and therapeutic-grade probiotic ensures optimal digestive health. With eight essential strains of beneficial bacteria, it's specially formulated for folks with sensitive digestive systems. Notably absent are the strains found in commercial probiotics which can lead to histamine intolerance, d-lactic acidosis, and other potential reactions. After decades of diligent research and valuable feedback from practitioners, scientists, professionals, and individuals deeply invested in gut health, we've crafted this blend. Its aim? To aid in the breakdown and assimilation of nutrients, restore proper digestion, and enhance elimination. All the benefits are encapsulated in these powerful, small-batch probiotic capsules. Another standout feature is the omission of common allergens or unnecessary ingredients. Plus, there's no inclusion of prebiotics like inulin or maltodextrin. The capsules, being less condensed than the powder, are an ideal choice for those just beginning their probiotic journey. And their compact form makes them perfect for travel! Each pack contains 60 vegetarian capsules, offering a 1-month supply with a robust 5 billion CFUs per capsule. Dosage Directions Infants: Use Smidge® Infant Probiotics only. Children (Ages 3 and up): Take 1/2 - 1 capsule daily with a meal (The capsule may be opened to give 1/2 at a time or smaller amounts in the beginning) Adults: Start with 1 capsule and work up to 2 capsules daily with a meal. This Probiotic is safe to take while Pregnant/Breastfeeding. Please be sure to reach out to your Certified Healthcare Professional about using supplements and their dosage while Pregnant or nursing. How to take: We recommend taking the probiotics in the morning, and most importantly with a meal. It is beneficial if the meal also contains some fat. Through our research, this is when we have found the best time for the probiotics to survive the stomach acid and reach the intestines where they belong. You may swallow the capsule(s) whole with water, or you may open the capsule and sprinkle the probiotic powder into a smoothie, or on top of yogurt, ghee, or applesauce. Mixing the powder into liquids is not recommended. Remember, A Smidge® is BIG! Our probiotics are very clean and pure, so remember to start low and slow when introducing them into your body. Also be mindful of any changes in your body. Signs that you are taking too much of the probiotic show up as cold or flu-like symptoms: muscle aches, fatigue, brain fog, difficulty sleeping. They are called die-off symptoms. Other symptoms to look out for that can be especially prevalent in children are skin flareups or rashes (eczema, cradle cap, or acne), difficulty concentrating, and bowel movement changes. Note: If an allergic reaction occurs, it is not likely that it is because you are allergic to the probiotic, but rather because it is a little too potent for you. Please follow these steps: Take 1/2 dose every three days until your body becomes well adapted to it (we suggest two weeks). Take 1/2 dose every two days until your body becomes well adapted to it (we suggest two weeks) Take 1/2 dose daily until your body becomes well adapted to it (we suggest two weeks) then slowly increase it to a full dose.
