Vitals Microbiol intimateVitals Microbiol intimate
Microbiol Intimate is an oral probiotic specifically for women. It combines the well-known strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus, GR-1 and Lactobacillus reuteri, RC-14, creating a superior duo. These strains originate from the female distal urethra (the furthest part of the cylindrical cavity connecting the bladder to the outside of the body). Microbiol Intimate contains 5 billion cfu (colony forming units, i.e., the number of viable bacteria capable of multiplying and forming a colony).
Manufacturer Chr. Hansen
Chr. Hansen is the manufacturer of these bacterial strains and has been responsible for extensive research into these specific strains, in the combination in which they are now offered. This is quite unique and very important! One bacterial strain (indicated by a suffix such as GR-1) is not the same as another, even if they belong to the same genus (in this case Lactobacillus) and the same species (Lactobacillus rhamnosus). Therefore, strain-specific research is particularly insightful.
Scientific research
There are more than 160 scientific publications on the combination of the strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus, GR-1 and Lactobacillus reuteri, RC-14, of which more than 50 are human studies. This makes it the most researched combination of Lactobacillus strains in the world.
Quality and viability
Chr. Hansen's advanced production process ensures that the capsules in the sealed packaging have a long shelf life outside the refrigerator. This is convenient in practice and in the store, of course. In addition, Vitals has chosen dark violet glass (almost black) that protects the content from the influences of air, light, and moisture. Furthermore, the packaging contains a moisture-absorbing sachet, and the packaging is hermetically sealed with an airtight aluminum seal. This further guarantees the viability of these bacterial strains.
About the name Microbiol
The name Microbiol is derived from 'microbiome.' This is the totality of all microorganisms that live on and in our bodies, such as the gut flora or vaginal flora. These include lactobacilli.

Storage advice Store dry, sealed and at room temperature.
After opening, it is advisable to store the packaging in the refrigerator. During use, when the cap is continuously removed, moisture and air come into contact with the product. To maintain optimal stability during use, refrigerated storage from that moment on may be sensible. Unopened, the product can be perfectly stored at room temperature.
