Each shelf-stable capsule provides 17.6 billion CFU from a combination of seven research-driven probiotic strains to help restore and maintain healthy vaginal flora. The vagina is a complex ecosystem that can be altered by many factors, including age, medication use, sexual activity, hygiene practices and hormone production.1 Lactobacilli are the dominant vaginal microorganisms in healthy women, where they help to maintain the normal vaginal microflora.1 They compete with other microorganisms for nutrients and adherence to the vaginal epithelium, lower vaginal pH by producing organic acids (primarily lactic acid), and produce antimicrobial compounds, including bacteriocins and hydrogen peroxide.1 In addition to providing two species of bifidobacteria, HMF® Women’s Daily offers three species of lactobacilli, selected for their natural presence in the female flora.2-5 This blend includes L. rhamnosus HN001 and L. acidophilus La-14, which offer particular support for maintaining a healthy vaginal flora.2-4 This probiotic combination also helps colonize the large and small intestines to support gastrointestinal health. To further contribute to overall well-being, HMF® Women’s Daily features cranberry fruit extract, which helps prevent recurrent urinary tract infections in women. This convenient, shelf-stable format ensures potency to expiration and can improve patient compliance. References REFERENCES 1. Borges S, Silva J, Teixeira P.
