JAKARTA - Maintaining the digestive health of babies is an important thing to ensure optimal absorption of nutrients. A healthy digestive system helps babies get the nutrients needed for their growth and development.

During the MPASI period, the baby's digestive tract is still in the development stage, so parents need to provide the right intake according to their needs. One of the important factors in maintaining digestive health is the consumption of a balanced nutritious food with sufficient prebiotic fiber.

In this case, dr. Herlina Sp.A, Pediatrician from Mandaya Royal Hospital, explains that the digestive system is the main gateway for the entry of nutrients into the body. Therefore, maintaining the health of the baby's digestive tract from an early age is very important so that nutrition can be absorbed properly.

"Challenges such as the Mouth Close Movement (GTM) and digestive disorders are often a concern for parents during the MPASI period. As many as 86 percent of mothers are worried that this condition can affect nutritional intake and have an impact on the growth and development of their children," said doctor Herlina at the TummyExpert MasterClass 2.0 event quoted from a press statement from the collaboration between Bebeclub and Raja Susu.

Because the cerna channel is still developing, it is important for parents to ensure that MPASI's intake is sufficient and in accordance with its development stage. One of them, parents need to pay attention to the intake of prebiotic fiber.

This fiber has been clinically tested is FOS:GOS with a ratio of 1:9 which can help optimize your little one's digestive health. FOS:GOS fiber is known to be mostly available in plant-based foods to other dairy-based foods.

"In Indonesia, 9 out of 10 Indonesian children experience a lack of fiber. For this reason, one of the important factors to maintain the health of the digestive tract is the consumption of nutritious food in balance with sufficient prebiotic fiber," said doctor Herlina.

To facilitate the monitoring of your little one's digestive health, the milk producer has developed artificial intelligence-based technology, namely the AIPop Tracker.

This innovation is the first tool in Indonesia that helps parents analyze their child's fess conditions quickly and accurately by simply uploading photos to the system.

AI will evaluate the color and texture of the feces within 60 seconds, provide important information about the baby's digestive health, and help parents take the necessary steps, including consulting a doctor if needed.

"By understanding the better condition of children's digestion, parents can ensure a balanced nutritional intake and sufficient prebiotic fiber to support optimal growth," said Ceasyalya Tahara, Brand Manager of Bebelac.
