When it comes to probiotics, researchers are discovering that women have special needs that extend beyond a healthy gut. A woman's vagina has its own microbiome - or diverse collection of bacteria - much like her gut has its own microbiome. Like her gut, a woman's vagina thrives on a healthy balance of bacteria and can experience issues when the wrong bacteria grow out of control. Luckily for women, there is a strain of probiotic bacteria that can help promote a healthy gut, and also support the health of the vaginal microbiome... Lactobacillus bacteria. My Complete Probiotics for Women contains 7 of the most dominant Lactobacilli probiotic species found in a woman's healthy vagina. In addition, this complete formula contains 3 common species of Bifidobacteria. Researchers believe that Bifidobacteria may have similar protective or health-promoting effects as Lactobacilli.* Complete Probiotics for Women contains 7 of the same strains found in Complete Probiotics, including my favorite top strain, Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1. I've added 3 additional Lactobacillus strains that show science-backed value for women's health: Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus reuteri, and Lactobacillus gasseri.*
