Optibac For Women is a specialist supplement* designed to provide high-quality friendly bacteria specifically for women's intimate flora. It is produced by the UK & Ireland's most trusted and recommended friendly bacteria brand**. The vaginal microbiome differs from the gut microbiome, so it is crucial to select the right friendly bacteria.

This oral supplement contains extensively researched strains, including L. paracasei F-19®, as well as the renowned combination of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1® and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®, which have undergone clinical trials involving over 2500 women across 25 scientific studies conducted over a span of 30 years. These strains have been scientifically proven to survive and reach the intimate area.

Recommended for daily use, each capsule provides 2.5 billion live cultures, guaranteed until the end of the expiry date. Optibac For Women is specially formulated to complement the natural vaginal flora and increase natural levels of lactobacilli. It is suitable for women of all ages and life stages, including teenagers, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, older women, women during menopause, and those who believe they can benefit from it. It can be taken intensively or on a long-term daily basis. It can be taken alone or alongside other supplements like cranberry, natural antibacterials, and antifungals.

This supplement is suitable for vegans and vegetarians and is also gluten-free, yeast-free, soy-free, and GMO-free. It contains no dairy, added sugars, artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, chemicals, or parabens. Each pack contains 14 capsules, with a recommended serving size of 1 capsule per day.

Optibac ensures the use of only the highest-quality friendly bacteria strains, all tested to guarantee potency at the end of the shelf life. The capsules are easy to take on the go and do not require refrigeration before opening. However, it is recommended to refrigerate the supplement after opening, ensuring the lid is tightly screwed and the desiccant packet remains in the jar.

*This supplement contains strains that are naturally found in the vaginal and urinary tract. They have been scientifically trialled and shown to survive and reach the vagina alive. **An independent, nationally representative survey conducted in August 2020 interviewed 1,000 British women aged 25-55 who had purchased a probiotic supplement in the last 6 months. Respondents were asked to select the brand they trust the most and the brand they would be most likely to recommend from the 5 most searched probiotic supplement brands in the UK in July 2020.
