Breast milk provides nutrition for babies and contains natural prebiotics, which can be carried on to babies during breastfeeding
A probiotic supplement of good quality can help improve the immune system by increasing the production of antibodies and preventing harmful bacteria
from entering a child's digestive system. An infant typically obtains prebiotics from their mother's breast milk. Until babies are six months old, breast milk is the best source of prebiotics.
