I still remember clearly how little Jung Min (my nephew who was about 2 years old then) got diarrhea from drinking Yakult. Before you start thinking that there's something wrong with the product... it's more like the cultured drink is more for adults and children but not babies and toddlers.
If you do not already know, cultured dairy products (i.e. cultured milk, yoghurt etc.) are usually too strong for your baby/toddler, resulting in disturbed little tummies.
Then again, due to the benefits of the good bacteria it provides, many parents, like myself, would like to introduce them to their little ones.
Just like how they have Yakult for adults and older children and Vitagen for the younger market, there's yogurt for babies and toddlers, too.
You just have to look them up at Cold Storage or even certain Jusco stores. Unfortunately, they are imported (quite pricey) and usually comes in six packs...
Fortunate for me, I am able to get them as they are the very thing that can treat Arthur's cold... even when medication failed.
