Good bacteria can help women and their health

(ARA) - Bacteria isn't always as bad as you might think. Unwanted or pathogenic bacteria can make you sick, but beneficial bacteria or probiotics can help keep your body balanced, by helping you break down food, aiding your immune system and supplementing your health in important ways that keep you at your best.

The word probiotic means "for life" and represents the application of beneficial bacteria into the body. The number of probiotics for digestive health and immunity support has boomed in the last few years and science is only beginning to understand the complex relationship our bodies have with beneficial bacteria.

"Good bugs," or beneficial bacteria, are in products everywhere you look and they're actually good for you. For example, there are yogurts that promote digestive health and those that provide immunity support. And now there's a probiotic to maintain feminine health that is available in feminine care aisles of most drug and discount stores.

RepHresh Pro-B is a once-daily capsule that contains the first strains of probiotics that specifically promote vaginal health. They are clinically shown to balance yeast and bacteria to maintain feminine health. Previously available in Europe and Canada, RepHresh Pro-B has successfully completed the Food and Drug Administration New Dietary Ingredient process in the U.S, and these beneficial probiotic strains are available for the millions of women in the United States who deal with feminine health issues each year. RepHresh Pro-B contains patented ingredients that help to maintain the flora important to overall vaginal health, naturally balancing yeast and bacteria to maintain feminine health. Their benefits have now been documented in numerous clinical and laboratory studies over the last 27 years.

Doctors have long known that beneficial bacteria is important to women's health. This has sparked the mythology surrounding yogurt and vaginal health. But, the bacteria found in yogurt is not the type that has been clinically documented to maintain feminine health. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has indicated that studies of nonvaginal strains have "failed to show a clear benefit."

RepHresh Pro-B provides the type of probiotic that is important to women's health. Just one capsule of RepHresh Pro-B per day helps maintain vaginal flora in a normal, healthy range.
