IMMUNO kids is a powdered food supplement containing fibre, 2'-fucosyllactose (HMO), plant extracts, magnesium, calcium and vitamin C. The raspberry or strawberry flavoured drink is intended for daily dietary supplementation for children. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.

Size: 

• Raspberry: 134 g (comes with the scoop).
• Strawberry: 128 g (comes with the scoop).   

IMMUNO kids is a tasty fruit drink designed especially for children from 3 years of age. Selected nutrients contribute to the normal function of the immune system and support healthy bones, teeth, and proper muscle function.

2'-Fucosyllactose

2'-Fucosyllactose (2'-FL) is an oligosaccharide belonging to the group of HMO (human milk oligosaccharides) — carbohydrates naturally present in human breast milk. In IMMUNO kids, it is included as part of a complex formulation. 2'-Fucosyllactose is the subject of scientific research focused on its properties in nutrition.

Acacia Fibre

A gentle plant-based fibre suitable for daily supplementation in children. It is a natural part of a balanced diet and is commonly used in children's drinks.

Larch Extract

Also known as arabinogalactan — a plant polysaccharide obtained from larch. In IMMUNO kids, it forms part of a carefully selected composition for children.

Magnesium

Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. It also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Why will children love IMMUNO kids?

Thanks to its delicious raspberry or strawberry flavour, your child will enjoy maintaining a regular drinking routine. IMMUNO kids quickly becomes a favourite daily drink for children.

Scientific Facts About Prebiotics and Soluble Fibre

What are prebiotics?

A prebiotic is not a bacterium. It is a substance utilised by the host's microorganisms and may therefore provide a health benefit. To be scientifically classified as a prebiotic, it must be proven that the substance is selectively used and that this leads to a health benefit for the host. Not all fibre is automatically a prebiotic — the term requires evidence of both mechanism and health effect.

How can prebiotics act?

They may:

• support the growth or activity of specific gut microorganisms

• change the production of microbial metabolites (e.g., SCFA)

• influence the gut environment

• affect gut barrier function or immune and metabolic processes

Scientific Facts About Soluble Fibre

Soluble fibre is a group of non-digestible carbohydrates that dissolve in water or form a gel-like solution. This group includes pectins, guar gum, acacia fibre, inulin, and certain oligosaccharides. It is not a single substance but a collection of different fibres with varying fermentability and biological effects.

Fermentation and SCFA

Soluble fibre is not digested by enzymes in the small intestine, but part of it is fermented by gut bacteria in the large intestine. This fermentation produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) — mainly acetate, propionate, and butyrate. Through these metabolites, soluble fibre influences not only the gut environment.

Glycaemia and Cholesterol

Soluble fibre can thicken the contents of the digestive tract, slowing the absorption of glucose. Some types can bind bile acids, which is one mechanism explaining the reduction of LDL cholesterol.

Health Benefits

The benefits of soluble fibre extend beyond digestion. It influences cardiovascular health, glucose metabolism, and weight regulation. Higher fibre intake is associated with a reduced risk of colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel diseases.
