Help Prevent Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea In Both You & Your Kids. Florastor Review & Giveaway!

Thursday, December 17, 2009
As both a mother and Registered Nurse I am a big fan of the use of probiotics. The first time Danika ever had to take antibiotics she got horrible antibiotic associated diarrhea. She was going through ten outfits in a day because her diarrhea was so bad. The next time that she needed antibiotics I took the initiative to also put her on probiotics (okayed by her doctor). That time around she did great and didn't even have a hint of diarrhea. I can definitely say they are a lifesaver! They saved her the discomfort of having diarrhea (and saved her bottom too) and saved me having to clean up all the messes that resulted from it.

The #1 probiotic worldwide is Floraster. They make a probiotic supplement especially for kids. It can safely be given to babies and children from 2 months old on up. It comes in a powder form that doesn't taste bad! You can put it in liquids such as formula or foods like applesauce to get your kids to take it. I would definitely recommend being proactive and putting your kids on Floraster if they need to take antibiotics. You can also use it to treat diarrhea from other causes.

Floraster also offers an adult probiotic. Why take Florastor®? (From site):

-Florastor® is good for everyone - from infants to adults
-Florastor® helps with your body’s ability to digest food. (Florastor® produces enzymes that help with the digestion of fat, protein and carbohydrate)†
-Changes in diet and stress can cause a disturbance in your intestines. Florastor® helps maintain normal balance of the intestinal flora†
-To maintain intestinal health†
-To promote intestinal health even when traveling†
-To protect your intestinal tract and keep your intestines healthy†

What does Florastor® do?

-Florastor® keeps the normal balance of micro-organisms in your intestines†
-Florastor® can be taken for more than 48 hours
-Ask your health care professional if Florastor® is right for you


You can buy Florastor in most retail chain pharmacies and online at drugstore.com. You can also locate retailers near you here. Florastor is available in bottles of 10 capsules for $10.95 as well as larger packages. Florastor Kids is available in a box of 10 powder packets for $12.95 as well as larger packages.



Win! One lucky reader will win both - Florastor (box of 20 capsule blister pack - $22 value) and Florastor Kids (box of 20 powder packets - $22 value) : total giveaway value approx. $44!


This giveaway has ended. Congrats to the winner:
