PY - 2014 DA - 2014/09/29 TI - Maternal perspectives on the use of probiotics in infants: a cross-sectional survey JO - BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine SP - 366 VL - 14 IS - 1 AB - Probiotic products that may modify the intestinal microbiota are becoming increasingly available and known to consumers due to their potential to prevent or treat many pediatric health conditions. As scientific knowledge of the health benefits of probiotics increases, it is important to identify factors that may prevent their successful integration into patient care as well as to ensure effective translation of research findings. The aim of this study was to describe maternal perspectives on probiotics and their use in infants.
