Protection from Eczema and Allergies 

Immune-related health conditions, particularly eczema, have seen a rise in recent decades, with Atopic Dermatitis being one of the most prevalent in infants¹. While the exact cause of Atopic Dermatitis remains unknown, emerging research suggests that probiotics, such as Nutiani HN001™, can reduce the risk of developing onset of eczema with benefits extending into childhood up to 11 years old, when given from birth to 2 years of age2

Nearly 50% reduction in the development of eczema symptoms at 2 years of age compared to placebo group in clinical trial2
 
Benefits for Gestational Diabetes
 
14% of women in pregnancy globally are affected by Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM)⁴


Lifestyle interventions, including diet and physical exercise, are common ways of treating or preventing GDM. Emerging evidence suggests that Nutiani HN001™ may also offers a promising solution at reducing the risk of gestational diabetes, helping regulate glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. If left unmanaged, can lead to complications for such as:

For mother: For child:
  • High blood pressure (preeclampsia)

  • Premature membrane rupture and caesarean section

  • Higher risk of being large for gestational age

  • Metabolic complications 

  • More predisposed to obesity and type 2 diabetes in later life⁵


Clinical studies have shown that supplementation with Nutiani HN001™ can reduce the prevalence of GDM by 68%, especially in pregnant individuals over the age of 35 or those with a history of GDM⁶. In recognition of our strain’s efficacy, Nutiani HN001™ has received patent protection for its use in preventing or treating GDM in both Europe and Australia.

While many probiotics support gut health and immunity, only specific strains have shown potential mental health benefits. Nutiani HN001™ stands out for its ability to reduce symptoms of postnatal depression and anxiety⁸, which may provideing vital support to new mothers during a sensitive time.
