The best probiotic for women by far
Women can have a tough time when it comes to flora balance. The hormonal fluctuations that accompany pregnancy, hormonal contraceptives, 'time of the month' and the menopause can have a big impact on bacteria and yeast levels. Too little friendly bacteria can result in an overgrowth of Candida albicans, the yeast that causes thrush, and recurring thrush can be a frustrating and miserable experience for many women.
Luckily, we have an answer! Optibac Probiotics For Women contain two highly researched strains of bacteria that have been proven to make it through the gut and to your intimate area alive. Once there, they can help reduce unfriendly bacteria and yeast, creating a happier intimate area, and a happier you!
PLUS, for every ‘For Women’ pack purchased, Optibac will donate 20-30p (depending on pack size) to the international woman’s rights charity, WomanKind Worldwide, which challenges discrimination and violence towards women across the world, in particular Asia, Africa and South America.
Here at YourHealthfoodStore, we admire Optibac’s honest and informative approach – they’ve got the science and research to prove the claims they make about all their products, so you can really trust in the quality of these probiotics.
