How does Evivo work with breast milk to become one of the best probiotics for breastfed babies?
See our documented mechanism of action.
Capture
B. infantis EVC001 uniquely captures Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) found in breast milk, helping infants maximize nutrition from breast milk.
Consume
B. infantis EVC001 then consumes HMOs to colonize, or to replicate, establish, and persist, in the gut to help reduce colic and digestive discomfort, protecting baby from the inside out.
Convert
Finally, B. infantis EVC001 converts HMOs into key signaling molecules that help support a healthy gut environment and immune system 4, 5, 6

How much Evivo probiotics should I give my baby?
Since each baby is unique, you can choose the best way to feed Evivo. What’s most important is finding the method and consistency that works for you and your baby.
Recommended use:
Mix 1 sachet into breast milk, formula, or solids. Feed immediately. Discard leftovers.
The below table has suggested amounts to help with consistency.
| Feeding method | Amount of breast milk or formula per sachet |
|---|---|
| Spoon, oral syringe, or medicine dispenser pacifier | 1 tsp (approx. 5 mL) |
| Directly from finger, nipple, or pacifier | 5-10 drops (for paste) |
| Bottle | Single feeding amount or 2 oz |
Immunocompromised or baby with known allergies? Please consult your physician before using Evivo.
Feeding tips
- Give Evivo at the start of a feeding, so baby is likely to swallow more of it.
- It’s ok if baby doesn’t finish everything during a single feeding, still discard the rest.
- For best results, mix with room temperature or warm breast milk or formula. Some sediment is expected.
- Hold or sit baby semi-upright, supporting the upper back and neck – just as if feeding a bottle. Don’t tip head back – this can make it harder to swallow.
- For infants who can’t tolerate a 3 – 5 ml volume in one feeding, consider making the thin paste.
Store at room temperature
Evivo is safe to store at room temperature. No refrigeration required.
Each sachet is specially designed to protect against temperature fluctuations, air, moisture, and light. Keep Evivo on the counter, in the pantry, or in the diaper bag.
Why should I give my baby probiotics?
Over 60,000 parents have set their babies up with a healthy foundation by harnessing the power of the infant gut microbiome with Evivo infant probiotics.
What do probiotics do for babies?
For parents asking, “should I give my baby probiotics?” note that 80% of our immune system is in our gut. It’s imperative to care for your baby’s gut microbiome today to give them a strong foundation for good health.
Science shows that every baby fed any amount of breast milk can benefit from Evivo probiotics, especially newborns delivered by c-section, showing colic symptoms such as gas and fussiness, or experiencing diaper rash.
Diaper changes alone may not do it.
Most parents believe diaper rash is caused by waiting long periods of time to change baby’s diaper. Current research is showing a link between diaper rash and rising pH levels in baby poop.
Tackle diaper rash from the inside.
Evivo with B. infantis EVC001 is one of the best probiotics for breastfed babies because it lowers the Ph in your baby’s poop. When mixed with breast milk and fed to baby daily, Evivo has been shown to clear up diaper rash within days, so baby is more comfortable—and so are you.
Does your baby have colic?
Scientists believe colic may be caused by the loss of good bacteria in the gut.
Evivo can help.
Research has shown an 80% increase in good bacteria in babies fed Evivo. After using Evivo for one week, parents report relief and better sleep.
A well-rested baby is a happy baby
Sleep is essential for your little one’s growth, development, and overall well-being. Did you know babies may experience sleep issues due to discomfort caused by an imbalanced gut?
From sleeplessness to sweet dreams
An imbalanced gut can lead to digestive issues and gas buildup which can disrupt your baby’s sleep patterns. Evivo with B. infantis EVC001 helps infants establish a healthy gut microbiome for smoother digestion and less discomfort.
Replenish good gut bacteria
Evivo returns beneficial bacteria to a baby’s gut microbiome. Replenishing baby with beneficial B. infantis EVC001 re-establishes a protective gut environment, supporting baby’s nutrition from the inside out.
Implications of C-section births.
Babies born by C-section lack beneficial bacteria picked up through the birthing process.
Begin Evivo with the first breastfeeding.
Feeding baby Evivo with breast milk right after birth helps populate baby’s gut with beneficial B. infantis EVC001. A healthy gut microbiome helps protect from within and supports healthy immune function.

I’ve been giving my newborn baby Evivo for 2 months straight and have noticed a significant improvement in her skin, bowel movements, and sleep schedule. I was so satisfied with the results that I started giving my toddler and 5-year-old Evivo too. I feel confident knowing that their gut bacteria are healthy! As a sleep consultant, I highly recommend Evivo for every new parent!

“Working with infants post discharge, prioritizing gut health is paramount. It affects not only our babies’ growth trajectory and immunity but also helps babies regulate themselves and establish those beautiful sleep cycles we are always striving for. Evivo has helped many of my patients do just that, tolerate their feeds, sleep better, and meet their highest potential.”

Frequently Asked Questions
We know you want the best for your baby. If you have any questions about what probiotics do for babies, whether you should give your baby probiotics, or the best probiotics for newborns breastfeeding, – you can contact us directly at (844) 436-8486, email customerservice@evivo.com, or search our FAQs for an answer.
Research has identified hundreds of types of bacteria, and many are sold as probiotics for your baby, but many do not have an explainable process that describes how it works inside the body. That’s why Evivo is different.
With Evivo, baby can digest important breast milk nutrients called HMOs (Human Milk Oligosaccharides). While other probiotics pass through, the good bacteria (B. infantis EVC001) in Evivo captures and consumes HMOs to thrive and colonize within the gut. With up to 80% of our immune system in the gut, establishing a healthy gut microbiome is key to supporting immune function and positively impacting development.

You can start feeding your baby Evivo immediately once they begin consuming breast milk.
Yes. Evivo is for babies fed any amount of breast milk and can be mixed with formula, breast milk, or solids.
All babies, irrespective of delivery type, benefit from being fed Evivo. Even vaginally born babies may be missing beneficial bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract resulting in digestive discomfort.
Feeding baby Evivo with breast milk right after birth helps populate baby’s gut with B. infantis EVC001, a good bacteria strain clinically shown to work with breast milk to support digestive and immune health.
We cannot guarantee Evivo to be free of common allergens. Specifically, Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, which is finely milled and mixed with lactose, the main sugar found naturally in breast milk.
Given the way the product is processed, there may be trace amounts of residual milk and/or soy. While we do not expect any soy or milk to be present, per allergen regulations, we cannot guarantee a zero value and therefore declare both soy and milk. If these allergens are a concern, please consult your pediatrician before use.
