Parents of children born via C-section know the worry that can come with higher risks of allergies, eczema, and other immune challenges. But there’s exciting progress: our friends at Tiny Health have just published their first peer-reviewed paper—and the results are inspiring.
In this groundbreaking randomized controlled trial, researchers found that a personalized gut-microbiome program for C-section babies:
💛 Increased beneficial Bifidobacterium in the gut
💛 Shifted the microbiome to look more like that of vaginally born infants
💛 Significantly lowered the odds of developing atopic dermatitis (eczema)
👉 This means that targeted microbiome support early in life may help protect children from atopic and immune-related conditions down the road.
We’re thrilled to see this science moving forward—especially since so many of our families are looking for safe, evidence-based strategies to support their kids’ health. 💛
The full study is linked in the comments below.
Congratulations to Tiny Health and all the dedicated researchers who made this possible!
