It’s hard to overemphasise how important a healthy gut is to an infant and toddler’s development. Suffice it to say that when their microbiome is balanced appropriate to their age, they have fewer stomach challenges, are more content, and their gut and immune systems develop on track.
µBIOM™ synbiotics for Early Life nutrition
Rooted in research
How do the right synbiotics in your formula help him stay ahead?
Synbiotics – it’s a question of better health
Like you, we want infants and toddlers to get the best nutrition possible. Though mother’s breast milk is always first choice, less than half the world’s babies are exclusively breastfed the first six months.
We want to help you help them. A decade ago, HMOs became available for infant and toddler formulas. It was brand new, and we were the first to ferment MyOli™ HMOs. Now, emerging science is revealing synergistic and complementary health benefits from our µBIOM™ synbiotics (synbiotics containing our clinically documented probiotics and MyOli™ HMOs).
What’s the buzz about µBIOM™ synbiotics?
The health benefits of HMOs and good bacteria are deeply intertwined—often hard to separate. We’re at the forefront of this science and lead in producing top-quality probiotics and MyOli™ HMOs through fully vertically-integrated production.
Synergistic synbiotics
Synergistic probiotics are when the prebiotic, in our case HMOs, specifically stimulates the probiotic to boost its health-supporting effect.
Complimentary synbiotics
Science indicates that HMOs offer direct health benefits in addition to feeding the microbiome. In complementary synbiotics, the probiotic and prebiotic act independently.

Infants need Bifidobacterium
Up to 90% of an infant’s gut microbiome is made up of infant-type Bifidobacteria, crucial for gut and immune development.
Strikingly, a 2018 study found the average pH of infant stools has risen over the past century in developed countries. This indicates that Bifidobacteria has declined—most notably in infants born after 1980. This generational loss is likely due to modern lifestyle changes1.
Breastfeeding is the best way to reverse this trend. Alternatively, HMOs in formula can also support colonization of infant type Bifidobacteria like Istilos™.

Keeping gut and immune development on track
Keeping gut and immune development on track
An active child’s social contact challenges their immune system, which continues to develop well into their teenage years. Every exposure trains immunity, but only sometimes affects their health. For example, young children average only three episodes of loose and watery stools each year.5
LGG™ + MyOli™ 3-FL: a strong pair
Each component of this µBIOM™ synbiotic works individually to keep kids healthy, and it may have an additive effect as well.
MyOli™ 3-FL can bind to unwanted microbes so fewer of them attach to the gut wall and cause problems6. But when they do, the L. rhamnosus, LGG™ probiotic strain helps make stomach episodes briefer and/or less drastic.7,8, 9,10, 11
Both work directly to help strengthen the gut barrier, too. In fact, pre-clinical data indicates that together they may increase gut barrier integrity to a higher extent than either of them alone6.
