Hi Adriana – can I jump in here at say that my daughter’s terrible constipation at 6-months old was solved by giving her Metagenics brand probiotics for young children. We had to up the dose *very* slowly over a couple of months from a very small dose to the recommended dose on account of its immediate effect! She went from screaming-with-pain weekly bowel movements to a very healthy once-or-twice daily routine. I was so relieved. (Interesting, my daughter also suffers from soy and dairy intolerance which, as you would know, inflames the bowel lining – and I suspect it erodes the gut flora). Hope this helps. I’m afraid the medical profession were not very helpful (prescribing laxatives – aarrgghh) and I had to work this solution out for myself

Hey Katie – I encourage patients to take it before bed.

It does depend on the individual. I would say anywhere from 1 glass upwards per day. I know Sarah Wilson drinks 1L per day!!
