Don’t neglect your intimate flora any longer

The way we perceive how we should smell, look and feel ‘down there’ can actually cause more harm than good; the marketing for intimate soaps and the practising of douching can cause infections and irritations like thrush, BV, cystitis and UTIs – the complete opposite of what the soaps and douching are supposed to do! Soaps and douching can affect the balance of the vaginal pH causing these irritations and disturbing the body’s natural balance of intimate vaginal flora. The antibiotics and antifungals that are prescribed as the usual treatments for these conditions fail to address the imbalance of intimate flora (or natural bacteria) which means that recurrence is more than likely to happen.

Fight off Thrush, Cystitis and Bacterial Vaginosis

The most clinically trialled probiotic for women’s intimate health, Optibac Probiotics contain 2.3 billion live cultures per capsule which actively promote healthy intimate microflora. Optibac Probiotics boast over 30 years of scientific evidence and has been clinically trialled by over 2,500 women who have proven its safety, naturalness and effectiveness.

How does it work? Taken orally for your convenience Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14® were originally isolated from the urinary and vaginal tracts of healthy women. This unique formulation is the only probiotic which has been proven in clinical trials to survive to reach the vagina. Furthermore these strains colonise the intimate area; in doing so they inhibit pathogens and create a favourable environment for resident friendly bacteria to flourish. You’ll also be pleased to know that this supplement is safe and appropriate for women in the menopause, as well as for pregnant & breastfeeding mothers.

Promote a healthy balance and prevent odour

Optibac Probiotics For Women work in several different ways to ensure the optimum health of your intimate area:

• Restores a healthy vaginal pH <4.5
• Competitive inhibition
• Modulates cytokines to decrease inflammation
• Produces H₂O₂ which kills pathogens and lowers pH
• Bacteriocin production which kills pathogens
• Produces biosurfactants which breakdown pathogen biofilms

Optibac Probiotics is making a difference for women in more ways than one…

As a UK family run business, Optibac have been keen to ‘give back’ to the community. The launch of their ‘For Women’ range has enabled them to work with a women’s rights organisation. For each pack purchased of ‘For women’, OptiBac Probiotics will generously donate 20-30p (depending on pack size) to the international women’s rights charity, Womankind Worldwide reg. charity no. 328206. Womankind Worldwide partners with organisations in Africa, Asia and Latin America to challenge discrimination of, and violence against, women.

Just as it is common knowledge that your gut flora is very important, a woman’s intimate flora is also extremely important and can have a huge effect on sexual health and wellbeing, reproductive health, and general wellbeing. Optibac Probiotics For Women can be taken every day to support your natural intimate flora in the long term, just as you would take probiotics long term for your guts health.
