Colief Infant Digestive Aid Drops 0.50 oz

What does Colief® do? The addition of Colief® Infant Drops to the baby's usual milk compensates for possible temporary lactose intolerance in the baby's digestive system Colief® added to a baby's usual milk greatly reduces the level of lactose by breaking it down into glucose and galactose before the baby is fed. Studies have shown that the hours of crying may be greatly reduced when a baby's usual milk is treated with Colief. What is Colief®? Colief® is a dietary supplement, which is added to infant milk. The main ingredient in Colief is lactase, a naturally occurring enzyme produced within the small intestine. Colief is not a medication. Temporary lactose intolerance in infants is the temporary inability of the body to break down the milk sugar, lactose. Lactose must be broken down into the simple sugars, glucose and galactose, in order to be absorbed by the body. This undigested lactose in milk and other dairy products produces lactic acid and gas which may cause severe discomfort, bloating and gas that makes the baby cry. By three to four months of age, a babyâs digestive system should be developed sufficiently to produce adequate amounts of lactase for proper digestion of lactose in the diet. If you have any concerns regarding your infantâs health you should consult your healthcare professional. Research has shown that symptoms of colic usually disappear at around the age of 3 to 4 months. If you have any concerns regarding your infantâs health you should consult your healthcare professional.
