Vitakruid Symflora Femme Probiotics for womenProbiotic nutrition
Fermented products are an excellent source of probiotics. They are the result of a natural fermentation process in which bacteria, molds or yeasts are added. Yogurt, for example, is created by adding lactic acid bacteria to milk. White cabbage changes into sauerkraut after fermentation.
Some processing methods kill the probiotics in food. Most dairy products, for example, are pasteurized, which means the probiotics do not survive.
Foods with probiotics:
- Yogurt (with live cultures)
- Kefir
- Raw milk
- Traditional buttermilk
- Raw milk cheeses
- Miso
- Sauerkraut
- Kombucha
- Pickles (fermented in saltwater brine)
- Tempeh
- Kimchi
- Natto
- Sourdough bread
- Apple cider vinegar (with the mother)
Probiotics for women
Symflora® Femme is a probiotic specifically developed for women. The probiotic is safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, the first choice from week 32 of pregnancy and during the breastfeeding period is Symflora® Baby! The nutrition and supplements you consume during this period also reach your baby. The probiotic strains in Symflora® Baby have been specially selected for your child's important first year of life.
First in the Netherlands with patented Quatreflora™
In the Netherlands, Symflora® Femme is the first probiotic with Quatreflora™. Quatreflora™ is produced from the patented strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856. This unique probiotic yeast has been developed according to the latest scientific insights and has been clinically researched.
User-friendly capsules
Symflora® Femme is easy to take orally thanks to the user-friendly capsules. Because the probiotics remain intact, there is no need to administer them topically.
Arrives alive at its destination
Symflora® Femme differs from the other products in our Symflora® line. It does not contain a bacterial species, but a yeast. In addition, Symflora® Femme does not contain ProbioAct® technology. But there's a good reason for this!
Yeasts have a tough cell wall that protects them against the acidic environment of the stomach. This keeps the yeasts intact and they arrive alive at their destination. Probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacilli, on the other hand, are less resistant to stomach acid.
No ProbioAct® needed
ProbioAct® is a technology that guarantees the stability, survival and metabolic activity of probiotic bacteria. This technology is not necessary for yeasts, because they are naturally resistant to stomach acid.
Suitable for vegans
Probiotics are often grown on dairy products, making them unsuitable for a vegan lifestyle. However, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is grown on a plant-based culture medium, such as sugar beets or sugar cane. Symflora® Femme is therefore also suitable for vegans!
