This review is from: Udo's Choice Infant's Blend Probiotic 2.64-Ounces (Health and Beauty)

I will continue to buy this product for my child. And after reading about the benefits of probiotics in the journal Pediatrics, I will continue to and may add other strains that have been clinically tested (I don't think these have been yet?) But I have stopped buying this from Amazon due to Udo's website warning that large percentages of the bacteria die when not refrigerated. I know Amazon doesn't ship it cooled, so I'm also assuming they don't store it cooled. And I have no idea how long they store it, which could mean we're getting only a portion of the benefit paid for.

"We can assume a 2%-4% decrease per month if the product has been kept refrigerated, for example 30 billion viable cells at a 2% decrease will contain 23.5 billion viable cells after 12 months. If left at room temperature, for 30 days an encapsulated product will experience a 20%-40% decrease in bacterial count."

I'm sure Amazon will act to correct this, and when they do I'll come back. In the mean time, google the product +cooled or check out iherb.com and others who store and ship it correctly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for gas and constipation!, September 22, 2010

I ordered this for my ten week old baby who out of the blue became gassy and constipated. I changed my diet and that helped with some of the gas, but not the constipation. She was in a lot of pain from the two issues in spite of every thing we tried. (And we tried gripe water, gas drops, enemas, prune juice (we decided we needed to change pediatricians after that suggestion), water, massage, bath, different ways to carry her, swinging (both in our arms and in a swing when our arms gave out),music, warm compresses and driving her around town). I researched other cures and found out about probiotics and ordered this. I did not realize I was ordering a powder until I got it, but figured I could mix it in some water or breast milk and she would take it. My daughter decided otherwise. I mixed the powder with just enough water to make it a liquid and used a syringe to give it to her and in two days she was a new baby. She no longer cried out in pain, she was soiling her diapers every other day (she would go ten days) and her gas is almost gone. If your baby is suffering like ours, order this stuff, it will change your lives.
