What Is The Gut Microbiome and How Does It Affect Your Vaginal Health?

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANICThe Microscopic World Within Us

Did you know that your body is filled with trillions of microscopic organisms that function like a colony? They’re on your skin, in your vagina, and a massive colony lives in your large intestine.

This gut colony, known as the ‘gut microbiome,’ is estimated to weigh over four pounds! That’s four pounds of bacteria, yeasts, and viruses that colonize your colon and influence your entire body — including your vaginal health.

 

The Multifaceted Role of the Gut Microbiome

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANIC
Scientists believe that the gut microbiome:

– Regulates your immune system
– Influences mental health
– Helps control how your body metabolizes food
– Modulates blood sugar
– Affects your heart’s health
– Has a major impact on your skin’s health
– Can determine your weight
– Determines your bowel movements
– Processes hormones like estrogen
– Directly influences your vaginal microbiome

 

Understanding Vaginal Flora: Your Body’s Natural Defense System

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANIC

The Vaginal Ecosystem

Just as your gut has its own ecosystem, your vagina hosts a unique microbiome known as vaginal flora. This delicate balance of microorganisms plays a crucial role in maintaining vaginal health and protecting against infections.

The vaginal flora is primarily composed of various species of bacteria. These beneficial bacteria produce lactic acid, which helps maintain a low pH in the vagina (typically between 3.8 and 4.5). This acidic environment is crucial for preventing the overgrowth of harmful bacteria and yeast.

 

How Vaginal Flora Protects You

A healthy vaginal flora acts as a natural defense system by:

– Maintaining an optimal pH level
– Producing antimicrobial compounds
– Competing with potentially harmful microorganisms for resources
– Supporting the overall health of vaginal tissues
– Preventing the overgrowth of harmful bacteria and yeast
– Contributing to a balanced hormonal environment

 

When Vaginal Flora Is Disrupted

When the vaginal flora is disrupted, it can lead to various issues, including:

– Bacterial vaginosis (BV)
– Yeast infections
– Increased susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections
– Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
– Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)

 

Factors That Can Disrupt Vaginal Flora

Factors that can disrupt vaginal flora include:

– Antibiotics
– Hormonal changes (e.g., during menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause)
– Douching or using harsh soaps
– Certain sexual practices
– Stress
– Poor diet

 

Maintaining a healthy vaginal flora is key to overall vaginal health and comfort. And surprisingly, one of the best ways to support your vaginal flora is by taking care of your gut health!

 

The Gut-Vagina Connection: A Two-Way Street
ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANIC

Recent research has revealed a fascinating connection between the gut microbiome and vaginal health. The gut and vaginal microbiomes are not isolated systems; they communicate and influence each other in various ways.

Here’s how they’re connected:
– Bacterial migration: Beneficial bacteria from the gut can migrate to the vaginal area, helping to maintain a healthy balance.
– Immune system regulation: A healthy gut microbiome supports overall immune function, which in turn helps protect against vaginal infections.
– Hormone balance: The gut microbiome plays a role in regulating estrogen levels, which can affect vaginal health.
– Inflammation control: A balanced gut microbiome helps control systemic inflammation, which can impact vaginal health.

By nurturing your gut health, you’re indirectly supporting your vaginal health as well.

The Battle Between Good Bacteria And Bad Ones

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANICYour gut and vaginal microbiomes are made up of all types of microscopic organisms. Some are health-promoting, while others are the “bad guys” that can cause infections and discomfort.

Ideally, if your gut and vaginal flora are in good shape, the number of “good” guys outnumbers the “bad” actors. But if either is compromised, things can get out of balance quickly.

 

Signs of an Unbalanced Gut and Vaginal Microbiome

Here are some common signs you may have gut and vaginal health that’s less than ideal:

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANICYou’re bloated after eating
You’re constantly getting yeast infections
You have recurrent urinary tract infections
Your skin is always acting up
You struggle with diarrhea, IBS, or IBD
You’re constipated
You crave sugar all the time
You’ve been diagnosed with autoimmune disease
You’re overweight or have lost a lot of weight
You’re constantly getting colds and viruses
You have difficult periods and PMS
You experience vaginal odor or discomfort

 

That’s Where Probiotics Come In

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANICWhat Are Probiotics?

Probiotics are real, live “good” microbes. They are strains of bacteria that scientists believe are health-promoting and excellent at fighting off those pesky bad guys — in both your gut and vagina.

When you take probiotics in capsule form, it’s like swallowing a whole boatload of extra soldiers ready to fight for your gut and vaginal health.

 

 

How Probiotics Support Vaginal Health

ISA HERRERA BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC - ROOTGANIC

Probiotics can support vaginal health by:

– Helping maintain a healthy vaginal pH
– Competing with harmful bacteria for resources
– Producing antimicrobial compounds
– Supporting the immune system
– Helping restore balance after antibiotic use

The Problem With Most Probiotics

Most probiotics on the market aren’t all that effective, especially for women’s unique needs. They often:

– Don’t include prebiotics
– Don’t actually survive the digestive acids in the stomach
– Can’t actually colonize the gut or vagina
– Aren’t shelf-stable

 

That’s Why I Created Total Fem Biome Guard

ISA HERRERA, MSPT CSCS - TOTAL FEM BIOME GUARD PROBIOTIC

Total Fem BiomeGuard is a revolutionary, shelf-stable probiotic blend designed to support both your gut and vaginal microbiomes. It helps you:

– Get a flat stomach (‘bye bloat!)
– Maintain healthy vaginal pH
– Balance vaginal pH naturally
– Reduce the frequency of uncomfortable yeast infections
– Support urinary tract health
– Find more energy
– Sleep better
– Support healthy immune function
– Promote recovery from vaginal infections
– Support the health of your entire body, including your intimate areas

 

The Unique Features of Total Fem Biome Guard

What’s more, Total Fem Biome Guard is also:

– Spore-based
– Shelf-stable — no need to store it in the refrigerator
– Heat resistant
– Encased by a protective endospore so it survives the journey to the gut and vagina
– Packed with prebiotics, so your probiotics can thrive quickly

 

Specially Selected Probiotic Strains

Total Fem Biome Guard includes special, female-forward strains of probiotics, including:

– Bacillus subtilis
– Bacillus coagulans
– Bacillus clausii

These strains were carefully selected for their ability to support both gut and vaginal health. They’re robust enough to survive the journey through your digestive system and can effectively colonize both your gut and vaginal microbiomes

 

The Prebiotic Advantage

One of the unique features of Total Fem Biome Guard is its inclusion of prebiotics. 

Prebiotics are specialized plant fibers that act as food for the good bacteria in your gut and vagina. 

By including prebiotics in our formula, we ensure that the probiotics have the nourishment they need to thrive and multiply. 

This synergistic combination of probiotics and prebiotics (often called synbiotics) provides a more comprehensive approach to supporting your microbiome health.

 

My Personal Experience with Total Fem Biome Guard

Total Fem Biome Guard has helped me and hundreds of other women banish my bloat, get clearer skin, maintain vaginal health, and sleep like a baby at night!
