1The Foods That Keep Poop Soft Are The Ones They Refuse.

Every bit of advice for hard poops is a list of foods. More fruit. More veg. Whole grains. More fiber. More water.

Now picture your kid’s plate.

Picky eaters tend to live on a short list of beige favorites: crackers, pasta, toast, nuggets. Not much fiber, and not much for the good bacteria in their gut to live on. So their poop slows down, dries out and gets hard to pass.

It’s not a coincidence that picky eaters are so often the kids who struggle to go.

And it isn’t your parenting. You’ve been asked to fix their gut with food they won’t eat.

2Hard Poops Can Make The Pickiness Worse.

This is the part nobody connects.

Once a poop has hurt, a lot of kids get wary of anything to do with pooping. The prune juice. The pear. The gummy that’s “going to help you go.” The second they work out what it’s for, it’s off the menu.

And a tummy that’s full, tight and sore isn’t in the mood to try anything new.

BEFOREAFTER

So it turns into a loop:

1. 1They refuse the foods that keep poop soft.
2. 2Their poop gets harder, and it starts to hurt.
3. 3Now anything “for poop” gets refused too.
4. 4So it gets harder still.

And round it goes.

3Sneaking It In Rarely Lasts.

Prune juice in the sippy cup. Pear blended into the pasta sauce. A fiber gummy they took twice.

Most of it works for a few days. Then they taste it, spot it or overhear what it’s for, and that’s the end of that.

None of these are bad ideas. They all just depend on a kid who’s decided not to cooperate.

4Kiwi Is The Quiet Hero Of The Fruit Bowl.

Kiwi’s been studied for years. In adults, eating green kiwi every day did almost twice as much as a fiber supplement to get things going.*

Which is great news, unless you’ve ever tried getting a picky eater to eat a kiwi. Let alone every day.

That’s the idea behind UpAiry Tummy Gummies. One kiwi gummy a day, with three gut ingredients doing the work their plate can’t:

• Kiwifruit Powder250mg
  Softens
• B. coagulans~1 billion CFU
  Gets it moving
• L. paracaseiheat-treated, 20mg
  Keeps it steady

The kiwifruit pulls water back into their gut, so hard, dry poop softens up. B. coagulans, a probiotic that’s been studied in kids aged 4 to 12,* helps put back the good bacteria their gut’s been missing and keeps things regular. L. paracasei adds extra gut support.

Made without gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, artificial colors & flavors, high-fructose corn syrup, GMOs or preservatives. May contain traces of milk. Contains kiwifruit.

5You Can Stop Fighting About Food To Fix Their Poop.

One gummy with breakfast. Sweet kiwi flavor, soft and easy to chew, without the chalky texture of some supplements. No powder in their juice. No broccoli negotiations.

In the first week or two, the kiwifruit starts softening things up. Then one morning, it just comes out. No tears. They hop off the toilet like it was nothing, and you’re the one who nearly cries.

Once a poop stops hurting, there’s a lot less to be scared of. And once fixing their poop doesn’t depend on what they eat, dinner can go back to just being dinner.

What If They Won’t Take It?

Here’s What To Expect, Week By Week

1. Weeks 1–2

   The rock-hard poops start to soften. Some kids take a little longer, and that’s normal.

2. Weeks 3–4

   Poops get easier to pass, with less straining. When it stops hurting, there’s less reason to hold it in.

3. Week 6+

   A steady rhythm. Regular, comfortable poops, without a fight over what’s on the plate.

4. Month 3+

   The new normal. One gummy with breakfast, and dinner that’s about dinner again, not poop.

For best results, give 1 gummy every day for at least 3 months, which is exactly what Buy 2, Get 1 Free covers. Every child is different, so timing can vary.
