Study of gut bacteria in healthy newborns

This study tests whether giving a probiotic to infants can help their health. It involves pregnant people who plan to breastfeed and give birth at a specific hospital.
This study tests whether two types of probiotics (good bacteria) given to healthy babies under 6 months can help their gut microbiome develop. It compares probiotics to a placebo (inactive product).
This study tests a dietary supplement for healthy newborns to see if it helps them grow well and digest food properly. Researchers will collect stool samples and track the baby's health over time.
This trial tests a new infant formula to see if it helps babies' digestion and overall gut health. The formula is the only food the baby gets during the study.
This study gives healthy newborns a probiotic supplement called Bifidobacterium infantis to see if it helps with growth, immune health, and reducing inflammation. It may be a safe way to support your baby's early development.
This trial tests whether giving a small dose of the mother's vaginal bacteria to babies born by C-section can help restore their gut microbiome. It may reduce the risk of allergies and other immune-related conditions later in life.
