Effective in my opinion! However, I find it tastes rather unpleasant.
I started taking this in week 34 of my pregnancy on the advice of a nutritional therapist. It's going well, neutral in taste and easy to use.
Works wonders for our 4-week-old son's tummy cramps.
Easy to use. I use it for our daughter. It can also be used during breastfeeding as you can make a ‘mash’ from it.
I started using this product towards the end of my pregnancy for the little one. It turns out that it's beneficial in case the baby needs antibiotics after birth. At the moment, I am 36 weeks pregnant, so I have no experience post-birth yet, but it is also working well for me. It’s easy to use; I drink it just before going to bed. I don’t have to get up extra in the evening to go to the toilet, as you don’t need to drink a huge glass. For me, it’s a nice product and a comforting feeling that I can do something for the baby before he is born.

Hello, what are the potential risks associated with use in cases of obesity and gestational diabetes?
On 20 february 2025 by Customer serviceOrthiflor Start can be safely used in cases of obesity and gestational diabetes. However, always consult your midwife and/or doctor. Additionally, the advice for obesity and gestational diabetes is to always consult your midwife and doctor.
Our little girl struggles with thicker consistency. That's why I put it in the bottle for her. I initially tried mixing 30 ml of milk with 1.5 scoops, but she found it too thick and couldn't get it out of the bottle (even after changing the teat). With 50 ml of milk mixed, she can get it out of the bottle, but she doesn't finish it within 5 minutes. What is the reason it must be consumed within 5 minutes and what might be the consequences?
On 26 september 2024 by Customer serviceThe advice to consume Orthiflor Start within 5 minutes is related to the viability of the probiotics. Probiotics are live bacteria that can be sensitive to temperature and moisture. Mixing the probiotic powder with milk and letting it sit for a while can reduce the effectiveness of the probiotics.
If your daughter can't drink it within 5 minutes, it's not necessarily a problem. The most important thing is that she ingests the probiotics. The effectiveness might be slightly reduced, but the product can still offer benefits.
As an alternative, you might consider mixing smaller amounts and giving them several times a day. This can ensure she receives the full dosage without having to rush to drink it all at once.
How should I give this to my baby who only breastfeeds directly? (not expressed milk)
On 11 december 2023 by Customer serviceYou can make a paste from the powder with a few drops of water (you might want to boil the water first and let it cool). You can apply the paste with your finger to the inside of the baby's cheek or under their tongue. Alternatively, you can rub it on your nipple just before offering the breast.
Your description states that this product is to be used during the last 6 weeks of pregnancy. Can I also use this probiotic at the beginning of my pregnancy? What is the difference with your probiotic Othiflor Original? Warm regards
On 29 december 2022 by Customer serviceThe orthica start is also suitable for use at the beginning of pregnancy. It contains probiotic strains that are beneficial for the baby in the last trimester. It is also perfectly fine to take the probiotic Orthiflor original. This contains more strains and ensures that your entire gut microbiome is nourished.
What dosage should I follow for my 9-month-old baby?
On 09 august 2022 by Customer serviceThe recommended dosage for children from birth until the introduction of solid foods is 3 grams per day (two measuring scoops). Add to one warmed bottle of formula, expressed breast milk, or a small amount of boiled and cooled water (temperature no higher than 37°C), and do not leave standing for more than 5 minutes. Once you start introducing solid foods, the dosage can be reduced to 1 measuring scoop per day, up to 2 scoops if there are any issues.
