Immune Health Starts in the Gut
LoveBug Probiotic Support Keep the Family Healthy
With the epidemic of overprescribed antibiotics coming to light more and more people realize that their digestive systems have suffered for it, one of the best ways to combat the negative effects are with pre- and probiotics. Did you know that scientists now know that most of our immune system starts in the gut?
It's true! So one of the best ways to keep your overall health in good condition is to support your gut and immune health with Lovebug supplements. They even have a line for babies 1-day-old to 4-years-old. They make another formula for the 4-year-old kids and up. Adults will love their formulas tailored to specific needs. All of their formulas are great for supporting your immune health.
What the &$!#% Is Going On?
Did you know that the current generation of children is the first generation to have predicted shorter lifespans than their parents? How sad is that? Modern medicine is a great thing, but once we find something that works, we seem to stick to it despite growing side effects.
Antibiotics are wonderful and often lifesaving medicine. However, all of us are consuming many more antibiotics than we typically know of. 80% of all antibiotics prescribed in the USA are for cattle that become the beef we eat. So unless you are only eating certified antibiotic-free meat, you're ingesting antibiotics every time.
Constant exposure to antibiotics has been detrimental to our health in two ways. For one, it leads to antibiotic resistance, which I have personal incredibly painful experience with. Second is the overall weakening of our immune health.
So What Can We Do?
The best and first thing you can do is to arm yourself with knowledge. I knew from experience too many antibiotics were not good but LoveBug's website taught me the exact statistics, and they are frightening. Second, do your best to minimize exposure to extraneous medicines and chemicals.
Buy meat that says "Natural" means next to nothing. USDA Organic is healthier but can still be exposed to antibiotics for the animal's health. And any brand can slap an "antibiotic-free" label on the package and have it not be true. So you need to look for "USDA Process Verified" seal along with "No Added Antibiotics/ No Antibiotics Administered" to be 100% sure.
Any meat with the American Grassfed Alliance label is also guaranteed antibiotic-free. Food Alliance certified meat was never given growth hormones or sub-therapeutic antibiotics. This means the animal still may have gotten antibiotics if it got sick, but otherwise never had any.
We also need to be aware of when antibiotics should be used to treat an illness. It's estimated that 50% of antibiotics prescribed to patients are actually not needed or useful, and you can imagine how many of those are for kids.
Rebuild Your Health
The last and most important thing we can do is rebuild our immune system and overall health. LoveBug probiotics help with that. I used to get sick so often; I was sick (usually with a sinus infection) more than I was well. A single sinus infection could last up to 16 weeks, and I got them 2-3 times per year. The first things my allergist did were to get me on a good probiotic and antacid. For chronic sinus infections. Because your immune system normally fights off infections like those sinus infections and it starts in the gut.
When I learned that I immediately got my kids started on probiotics as well. I figured most of my bugs came home with the kids from school or being out and about with other kids. Mothers know what germ magnets they are. And if I can help support their overall health by helping their gut, I am all for it. My kids rarely got sick before, luckily, but have not gotten sick at all since starting Lovebug probiotics and taking them every day.
Effective
LoveBug Probiotics are 15 times more likely to deliver the needed probiotics than standard capsules. Their BIO-tract® delivery technology ensures that as few organisms die before reaching your system as possible for the greatest benefit to your health. Each probiotic supplement is a proprietary probiotic blend, with every strain selected for its specific benefits. Like the Colds Suck probiotic blend. With probiotics, zinc, echinacea, and vitamin C, they help support your own immune health to fight back against nasty bugs. It helps us feel better faster with 5 billion active cultures in 4 strains.
Easy
They are also exceptionally easy to take. My 3-year-old gets her regular Tiny Tummy probiotics as a flavorless powder in her drink. She doesn't even know she is taking them! She gets 15 billion active cultures in 8 different strains. Since she is still growing and developing her immune system, she needs more than older kids.
Another fun and tasty way to give your kiddos this flavorless powder (or you can crush the pills for the older kids) is to put it in something like a smoothie or how about this tasty Simple Overnight Oats with Peanut Butter & Berries Recipe. If anyone has nut allergies you can try our Overnight Oats with Yogurt and Berries instead.
My 8-year-old swallows whole pills daily, but these are nothing for him. The Little Ones probiotics are SO tiny. Only 6mm in diameter. My 5-year-old has no history of swallowing pills and he manages these with no problems. They get3 billion active cultures in 5 strains. They are all also made without sugar, gluten, nuts, dairy, GMOs and other undesirable ingredients for simplicity and peace of mind.
And right now you can get 20% off all LoveBug Probiotics on Amazon! Simply go HERE and then enter code: EHXBUBNG at checkout. This code is good through July 31, 2019.
I learned that the company is located in New York City, New York.
The post was very informative. I have always been skeptical of probiotics but Love Bug probiotics sound great. I like that doctors select specific ingredients for the blends.
I would love to make the overnight oats recipe above it sounds yummy. I didnt know they had probiotics for kids but I guess they need a balanced gut just like adults I would love to try this product for them thanks for sharing it.
Wow, these sound amazing! I just got over a horrible cold that felt like flu/bronchitis combined! Myself, and my whole family would truly benefit from this! And thank you for the info on what to look for on the meat!
I’m wondering if my 4 and 5 year olds would be able to swallow the Little Ones
Thank you so much for all the information and especially the code to save 20%. I would really love to try these. My current probiotic is not doing very well. Time for a change!
I am interested in trying the colds suck probiotic. I hate getting sick every winter.
I did not even realize that they made probiotics for children. Thank you for your review it has really opened my eyes to a new brand that offers a lot more than the probiotics that I currently use.
My immune system is bad due to taking steroids for years for my breathing. Thanks
I have multiple autoimmune diseases, and really need to up my intake of things to boosts immunity. My daughter is unvaccinated due to having my MTHFR gene, and we'd be extremely grateful for anything that would help. These are great quality probiotics. Thanks for the opportunity
I would love to try the colds suck after being diagnosed with Lyme Disease in 2012 it seems that I get cold so easily
Like you I had a health issue last year and it led to many other problems. My doctor suggested probiotics and since then a lot of my issues have gotten better. And I agree it is important to know and be able to trust the quality of the health products you are buying.
I use probiotics daily. I am intrigued by "Colds Suck" .
Too many people seem to go straight to antibiotics these days. They'd be way ahead to avoid the problems in the first place by using probiotics.
I never made the connection with sinus infections and me eating yogurt now daily! My sinus infections have all but disappeared since I started eating a yogurt daily during the school year when I am working! Think I am going to continue now that we are out for summer! Would love to add these in for the immune support from those pesky colds I still occasionally get!
I just read an article the other day about probiotics and how they are helping cancer drugs be more effective. I also see too many antibiotics in things - it shocked me enough that a couple of years ago after reading about the amount of them in cattle, I stopped eating beef. So glad that these products are available to help right some wrongs. I'm going to give the 'Here’s The Skinny' a try.
I like that it's healthy and easy to take.
Colds Suck is one I would like to try. I get one cold a year when winter sets in. I would like ti see if this helps.
i hate using "medicine" for minor issues but i hate seeing my kids suffer. these look like agreat solution.
My Daughter is always getting sick a few times a year when at school,the Colds Suck probiotic blend sounds like it would really help her!
I’ve heard of LoveBug Probiotic but never tried their products. I didn’t even know that they have a line for babies 1-day-old to 4-years-old, I’m glad I do now.
I really like that LoveBug probiotics help support your immune health.
I really like the "probiotics, zinc, echinacea, and vitamin C" included, as well.
I have never heard of this brand but after looking into them and seeing all of the great reviews it is definitely something I look forward to trying out! I will be getting some of the Little Ones and also Yeast is a Beast!
I'd like to try the immune support, I feel like i'm constantly getting sick.
It is so important to stay on top of things and stay healthy.
I’m glad these are easy to swallow. I have ongoing issues with nausea so some supplements just sit on my counter because I can’t stomach another big pill.
sound great but are they prices ?
These sound like they would be a great addition to my health regimen.
It looks like they offer some wonderful products for all ages. I know that I feel better when I take pre and pro-biotics regularly.
My daughter, granddaughter and I have all recently started adding probiotics to our routine.
I wish I would've had this on hand this last week when all the kids had a cold. I'd love to try the colds suck on them, see if it works. I've heard great things!
It's impressive how much probiotics can boost your health. We love their products
Health is so important, and you're right.... "rebuild". I like that these are so easy with different ways to take. The powder is a nice way.
So many great products that I would love to try. I love that I can build up my immune system and keep colds away.
Immune health is important for both kids and adults. I am not currently taking any probiotics but have been doing research on them and these sound of high quality.
LoveBug Probiotics sound great for gut health. I would really like to try the Colds Suck Probiotic.
I try to take probiotics everyday. There's so many health benefits to your health to taking them.
I would like to try the Here’s the Skinny for weight loss help.
I didn't know alot of this thank you for the information
This ia something I didn't know or even think about........
My 3-year-old gets her regular Tiny Tummy probiotics as a flavorless powder in her drink. She doesn’t even know she is taking them!
Going to see if my niece knows about this and would like some for her daughter (3).
It's crazy how difficult it is to navigate the grocery store with terms like "natural" and "free-range" thrown around without much regulation. Love Bug Probiotics seems like a good option to boost our health and digestion.
I would like to try their Here’s the Skinny product.
It's awful that we get antibiotics in the meat we eat. Lovebug probiotics sound like they would be healthy.
I've only tried one, Here's The Skinny and I'll have to look into the Colds Suck for my chronic sinus problems.
Wow! Learned so much from this review. I, too, have sinus problems and it never occurred to me that probiotics might help. Can't wait to start trying them. Thank you for such an informative review.
These products look great! I want to try Here's the Skinny!
Sounds like great probiotics. I am glad they have the option of a powder for the kids.
These sound like amazing products. probiotics are so important.
You make these sounds really excellent and now I cannot wait to try them .Thanks for the great and detailed review.
This sounds so interesting! I have never heard of these probiotics before, and I learned something I didn’t know about antibiotics in meat. I need to look into ordering these!
Theses sound like great probiotics. I don't take any currently but I do want to start.
I'd like to try the Daily Probiotic for Women. I like how small they are.
Every day researchers are learning more about the importance of gut health. I think probiotics are important.
I and my family have never tried probiotics but I am starting to change my mind and I think I will pick up some of these by LoveBug. Thanks.
I have been wanting to try the probiotics. I have a lot of gut problems and have IBS. I would love to try the Here’s the Skinny
I have been a believer in Probiotics and Prebiotics for a long time. I am still confused as to how strong a formula I need. I'm 57.
I think this is a great line of probiotics.
I started Keto about six weeks ago and have lost 14 lbs so far, but my breath stinks to high heaven and I am thinking that my gut bacteria is all off and in need of some good/useful bacteria. Also, since I haven't been eating any fruit, and thus almost no vitamin C, I am probably in dire need of immune support as well, and even more so as we transition in the fall and winter seasons coming up.
I love your review! so thorough . I would love to try these vitamins out i love vitamins that hit every issue that i have
I suffer from IBS and have just started a probiotic that I don’t think is working too well. I would really like to try Here’s the Skinny. I like that they are available in stores that I already shop at.
I have been wanting to try these. They sound like great products!
Probiotics really help my stomach!
I'm hearing more and more about how important probiotics is to our overall health. I would love to try the Here's The Skinny.
I never realized that overall health could be affected by your gut. Thanks for sharing this.
New to me brand, find their product really interesting and right up my alley.
This quote makes me really want to try this product- "LoveBug Probiotics are 15 times more likely to deliver the needed probiotics than standard capsules". I strongly believe in taking probiotics and its so important for my kids too with all the germs and viruses spread around at school!
I have heard many good things about probiotics, but have never tried them. I like that this company has childrens & adults.
I have heard a lot lately about how digestive health is related to general health.
I'm pleased that they have special formulations for children, who would benefit greatly from this product.
Probiotics are a super important part of a diet nowadays. Wish I had known this long ago. These look great!
These probiotics are perfect for kids because they are small enough for them to swallow and they have a more survivability rate me in the stomach
I'd like to try the Women's formula. I'd like it in tiny pills like for the kids.
I get sinus infections a lot. I have taken probiotics in the past and felt better. These sound like ones I should try. Are they sold on Amazon or Walmart?
thanks for the information - always wanting to learn how to improve health. thanks
I'd like to get the Tiny Tummy probiotics for my nephew.
I would love to try the Here’s the Skinny for Digestive Health. Their products sound wonderful.
My family gets sick all the time and we are tired of taking medication. I would be curious if taking these Lovebug Probiotics would help us to not be sick all the time!
Seems like everyone has digestive issues nowadays and there are so many probiotics on the market to choose from that it gets overwhelming to me. Lovebug sounds like the perfect probiotic for my family. With them being 15 times more effective than chewables or capsules and their BIO-tract® delivery technology it makes my choice easy. I would never had heard of them if not for your review so thanks so much!
I like that they have a variety of different blends to choose from based on what you're looking for.
I like that they have different formulas for different health issues. I checked out their site and they have so many different blends. I would like to try Here's the Skinny.
These sound amazing. I love finding new safer alternatives to traditional medicinal products.
We eat yogurt for gut health but gets boring after a while. These may be just what we need!
I never realized that little ones needed probiotics as well. These are organic so that is a plus. I have learned something new today.
My family takes probiotics regularly. I haven't heard of this brand before but I would like to try some of their blends.
When I had my stem cell transplant, for a cancer I had called Multiple Myeloma (it is in remission), my body’s chemistry changed. I was now allergic to penicillin and my immune system was really bad and weak. A couple of my doctors told me about the different Probiotic pills. Well, I can attest that these pills helped me! But there wasn’t a whole lot of different pills available then. I am so happy that they have a smorgasbord of pills and for all ages! I saved money by not having to buy so many meds and doctor visits!
I would like to try the skinny digestive blend. Thanks for sharing.
I would like the womens one. I could use the help with my digestive health.
Would be great for my sons immune health
I have never heard of or tried any of them. I love what all they are supposed to do and because of having copd and epilepsy, I've been told to try probiotics and see how they improve my symptoms.
These are a cute idea. I love the idea of supporting the tiny baby tummies.
Ive been looking for a good brand for my daughter. Id love to try this one
I just began a 3-week course of a strong antibiotic. I learned the hard way that the only way to maintain my gut biome under these conditions is to take a probiotic along with it. Thanks for a great review!
These sound like they would be a great addition to my health regimen.
The Colds Suck would be great for me. I'm exposed to tons of colds and germs at work and taking my regular vitamins hasn't been enough to keep them away.
It seems like it's impossible nowadays to be completely healthy just from our diets...Supplements like these are such a great idea!
My doctor suggested probiotics for my stomach issues. I really need to try some of these.
I am a huge fan of probiotics for my entire family! I would love to try Cold Suck Immune Support and Here's The Skinny Digestive Health for myself. I would love to give Little Ones to my daughters.
My Dr told me to take it and it has helped so much with my stomach problems.
I like that these pills are organic. I also like that they look easy too take.
I have ibs-c and this would be great and may be very helpful
It's great to have a good, wholesome pill that's also small to easily swallow for little ones.
You made me laugh when you said your kids brought their germs home from school. My mother used to say that to us 60+ years ago. I have been having some digestive problems and starting reading up. Got a lot of good info here
These look like good products to try. I am trying other supplement, but am always willing to see if there is a better one available.
I am susceptible to sinus infections too so anything that would help boost my immune system would be very helpful.
Looks like a good product for the family.
These look like really good products to try.
These sound like great products. Pre and probiotics are so important.
Taking care of ourselves is so important! Probiotics are always helpful for healthy living.
I love that there's a variety of probiotics for kids and adults.
I have been reading often about Immune Health and probiotics. This brand does seem high quality and terrific to try.
They sound great. This was the first time I've heard that the current generation won't live as long as previous generations. Crazy!
My kids get sick at least 2 times a year. I think these could be the answer.
They look healthy for the kids
This is great! Digestive health is so important and I've always heard that gut health can play a huge role in our overall health. I would love to try the "Here's the Skinny" or "Yeast is a Beast" probiotic blend!
I really like Here's The skinny. After a over a month my tummy, which is sensitive calmed down, my constipated wasn't as bad and I felt overall better.
