Frequently Asked Questions

We do not currently have any data to support Evivo colonizes mom and is able to be passed on to baby during birth. All current studies have been conducted feeding babies directly with Evivo.  

As you open a sachet of Evivo, you may notice it has a mild scent. This smell is normal due to the natural fermentation of the good bacteria in Evivo. Everyone's sensory experience is different, and the scent of the product varies from person to person. 

Evivo has a very mild taste. Once mixed, it takes on the flavor of the milk or formula. Adding more milk or formula may provide a milder taste. 

Evivo can be added after warming the human milk. Evivo should not be heated directly.

Feeding Evivo and human milk during the earliest stages of life is important and you can start the minute your baby begins consuming human milk. We believe the greatest chance to impact your child's gut microbiome begins early from birth. 

For parents, it's important to know that feeding your baby Evivo is a straightforward process. There are different ways to give Evivo to your baby, what's most important is finding a feeding method that works best for you and your baby. Please refer to the instructions for use guide for recommended feeding methods. 

*for newborns or infants who cannot tolerate a 3 - 5 ml volume in one feeding, consider making a thin paste with Evivo powder using a small amount of breastmilk and use a finger to feed directly to baby or apply to the nipple during feeding. 

For parents, it's important to know that while taking Evivo, some babies may experience a decrease in bowel movements or go several days without having a bowel movement. This is a normal result of the gut microbiome being reshaped and a sign that more nutrients are being absorbed.  

It may take your baby a few days to adjust to the changes in their diet. It's worth noting that not all babies need a change in their bowel movements to indicate Evivo is working. If your baby is receiving Evivo and human milk daily, Evivo is working.  

Talk to your pediatrician about whether Evivo is appropriate for your baby.  Also, be sure to speak with your pediatrician if your baby shows signs of distress that appear to be associated with a reduction of bowel movements.  

You can add Evivo to thawed or freshly pumped human milk. If you do heat human milk, only add the Evivo after heating.

Once a day, every day, give your baby the recommended serving of 1 sachet of Evivo mixed with human milk or formula. 

Evivo can be fed to baby any time of day. We recommend feeding Evivo just before baby's feeding time but encourage you to choose a feeding schedule that best fits your family lifestyle. 

Human milk is a marvel that provides your baby with the nutrients it needs. One of these, a seemingly undigestible nutrient called Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs), is key to healthy development.

Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, which facilitates HMO digestion. This relationship can support healthy gut and immune function in your baby.

You do not need to re-serve Evivo in the same day if your baby spits up. We recommend waiting until it is time for the next serving. Evivo continues to colonize the human gut after each feeding, so baby has protection in between feedings.  

If baby continues to spit up while being fed Evivo, we recommend trying a different feeding method. Please refer to our instructions for use for feeding recommendations. 

If your baby finishes an entire bottle during a single feeding, this feeding method may be best for them. Note that if your baby doesn't finish the bottle, we recommend throwing away the leftovers after 30 minutes. 

As long your baby is still consuming human milk, they can continue to benefit from receiving Evivo. It can help protect your baby during the transition to solids. 

No, it does not matter if your baby was born vaginally or via cesarean. Regardless of delivery method, recent research indicates that 90% of babies in the U.S. are missing B. infantis  potentially due to modern birthing and feeding practices. 

As long as your baby is receiving some human milk, you can continue feeding Evivo once a day, every day. Evivo can play a critical role in safeguarding your baby against the overgrowth of potentially bad gut bacteria.  

Evivo can be stored in the freezer up to the best by date on your package. An Evivo sachet can be mixed directly from the freezer with human milk and fed once a day. 

Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, a live bacteria that survives best when protected from prolonged periods of excessive heat, direct light, and moisture. 

We suggest using an insulated pack with a frozen ice pack or two for transporting Evivo in your checked luggage or carry on. 

Your pediatrician is a helpful resource for guidance in protecting your baby’s gut. This downloadable PDF has some key questions to get you started. You can print it, screenshot it on your mobile phone or device, or email it to your doctor directly and begin this important conversation today.  

Research on the gut microbiome has led to the identification of hundreds of types of bacteria, some of which are sold as probiotics for your baby.   However, not all products work the same. It is important to choose the right probiotic to help restore the good bacteria to your baby’s gut. 

Evivo can be combined with other probiotics. Only Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, the bacterial strain shown to work with human milk to help establish a healthy gut microbiome.

We encourage you to use Evivo during the first 6 months for baby to help maintain levels of B. infantis. The combination of human milk and high levels of B. infantis EVC001 has been shown to reduce bad bacteria that can cause inflammation linked to potential health issues such as allergies and other autoimmune diseases. B. infantis levels are expected to drop naturally over time when your infant has transitioned to solid foods and the bulk of their diet is no longer human milk. 

Both the Feeding Syringe and Mixing Bowl provided in the Evivo starter kit are BPA free. Evivo is packaged using best-in-class food packaging materials.  All product packaging and feeding tools are made without BPA.

Evivo is manufactured at a GMP facility in the USA, is gluten-free and non-GMO. Evivo contains no flavor additives, dyes, or preservatives. Our goal is to add only the components you'd expect to find in an infant's healthy gastrointestinal tract.

The probiotic strain in Evivo is Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis EVC001. On its own, this active ingredient is about 1/5th the size of a pea each serving, so it requires something to give it substance for packaging and feeding purposes. For this reason, lactose, the only natural sugar found in human milk, is added.

Evivo contains milk and residual amounts of soy. If soy or milk is a concern, please consult your pediatrician before use.

Evivo products work in synergy with human milk to help establish a healthy gut microbiome and set your baby on a course to better health. Research has shown that babies who are fed Evivo have reduced colic-associated symptoms, sleep better, and have improved stooling patterns. 

It's worth noting that not all babies need a change in their bowel movements to indicate Evivo is working. If your baby is receiving Evivo and human milk daily, Evivo is working. We recommend you take this information to your pediatrician, to determine if Evivo is suitable for your baby. 

90% of babies in the U.S. are missing B. infantis. Recent research published in Scientific Reports suggests that there has been a generational loss in B. infantis potentially due to modern birthing and feeding practices. 

Only Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, the bacterial strain shown to work with human milk to help establish a healthy gut microbiome, lower inflammation, and help guide the immune system.

Human milk provides the necessary nutrients for your baby's growth and development. One of these, a seemingly undigestible nutrient called Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs), is key to healthy development. Evivo contains B. infantis EVC001, which facilitates HMO digestion, supporting your baby to healthy immune system function.

It is not uncommon for infants to lack the B. infantis bacteria in their gut microbiome.  Evivo is a probiotic that aims to restore the natural state of the infant gut microbiome by introducing the B. infantis bacteria. This bacterium effectively utilizes HMOs in human milk that would otherwise go unused, ensuring that your baby receives more nutrients.

We formulate the product to withstand some variations in temperature that may be associated with shipping delays and expect that it will still have 8 billion CFUs (Colony Forming Units) by the Best if Used By Date on your package. The included ice pack is intended to prevent extreme temperature spiking while in transit. 

Each sachet of Evivo is specially packed and sealed in an airtight sachet that protects the live bacteria by keeping out air, moisture, and light.  Our recommendation for freezer storage is intended to ensure the product maintains at least 8 billion CFUs of the beneficial bacteria until the Best if Used By Date on your package.

It is best to store Evivo in the freezer and use 1 sachet per day. 

The Best if Used By Date is our determination of when the product should be used to ensure that it is at its best quality, particularly as it relates to the number of live B. infantis in the packet. 

The Best if Used By Date reflects when the product will be at its best quality and is not an indicator of safety.  If stored properly, Evivo should be safe and of good quality past its Best if Used By Date.
