Product Review: Culturelle: Let’s Avoid Sick Days…

Okay, sit down.

Breathe.

I am not the World’s Best Mom.

There…I said it.

I try to be good, though. I try. I make sure Seven eats. That he’s clean. That his clothes aren’t terribly un-matchy. He can read and write and is great with numbers. He (finally) ties his own shoes and wipes his own butt. He’s a whiz with a computer. He’s a pretty hip kid, I have to say.

But he has a mohawk. He often sings Fall Out Boy and No Diggity, which are maybe borderline inappropriate. I also allow him to sleep late on school days and shove a pop-tart in him as we drive to class just in time to beat the bell. I let him eat fast food.

I’m THAT mom.

I want him to be healthy, though. So, when the folks at Culturelle asked if I’d be willing to try out their Culturelle Kids Chewables – I didn’t hesitate.

Well, according to doctors and other people with degrees that took longer to earn than I have been alive: Yes. That seems to be a pretty good indicator.

Culturelle is the #1 Pediatrician recommended probiotic brand.

Here’s what THEY say: 70% of your immune system is in your digestive tract so a healthy and balanced digestive system plays a vital role in strengthening your child’s overall health and well-being. So, in steps Culturelle Kids Chewables, which:

  • Help reduce occasional digestive upset
  • Help boost digestion and overall digestive health
  • Provide ongoing maintenance for a healthy digestive tract
  • Boost digestive health, which in turn has a positive impact on overall health and immunity
  • Support their natural defenses

Overall, the Probiotics combat bad bacteria with good bacteria, keeping my kid healthier and IN SCHOOL, so that I can take long naps and eat pie for lunch if I want.

Did I just say that out loud? No.

What I can tell you for sure is that I feel better about myself giving him these chewables, as I know it’s a step in the right direction. I don’t give him the chewables EVERY day – somedays he has yogurt for breakfast, so I don’t want to over do it on the probiotic front. Let’s see, what else? Oh, they must taste great as he has no issue wanting them. There’s nothing worse than having to get a kid to swallow something he doesn’t like. Also good for all of us moms? They are 100% sugar, dairy and gluten free.

Score one for mom.
