We explored how Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356 impacts yeast infections caused by Candida albicans. The study used both in vitro and in vivo models, with tests on biofilm formation and filamentation in lab settings and survival analysis in Galleria mellonella larvae.
Our findings revealed that L. acidophilus was effective in inhibiting C. albicans biofilm and filament formation in vitro. Additionally, the injections into infected larvae significantly improved their survival rates and reduced yeast counts compared to a control group. Overall, L. acidophilus demonstrated promising protective effects against yeast infections.

This study examined how Lactobacillus rhamnosus could impact the development of yeast infections, specifically candidiasis. By using immunosuppressed mice, we created various groups to see if taking this probiotic before or during Candida exposure made a difference.
The results were promising: the group that took the probiotic 14 days beforehand showed significantly lower levels of Candida. We also noted reduced inflammation in tissues from these mice. While some cytokine levels were lower across the board, the differences weren't statistically significant. Overall, lactobacillus rhamnosus appears to be a potentially effective preventive measure against yeast infections.

Probiotics inhibit Candida biofilm growth
We investigated how probiotics, particularly Lactobacillus acidophilus and its relatives, affect the development of Candida albicans biofilms. Our findings revealed that these probiotics notably decreased biofilm growth and altered the yeast's growth behavior.
Specifically, Lactobacillus rhamnosus effectively diminished early biofilm stages. However, it didn't significantly influence mature biofilms. Overall, the lactobacilli hindered the transition of Candida from yeast to fungal forms and reduced its ability to form biofilms.
This research highlights the potential of using probiotics as a supportive treatment for yeast infections.

Amazing! I've struggled with BV, yeast infections, and UTIs for years. After a dreadful cycle of treating one with antibiotics and causing another, I tried these pills daily and noticed a significant difference. They have become a lifesaver, especially right after my period when I often felt off. I also found additional remedies helpful, but this product is essential in managing my overall vaginal health. For anyone similarly suffering, I highly recommend giving these a try.

I used to frequently suffer from UTIs and yeast infections until my doctor suggested a high-count women's probiotic. I was sceptical, but after trying it, my perspective changed completely. Since I started taking these pills in January, I haven't experienced a single yeast infection or UTI. They have truly changed my life! I bring them everywhere and can’t imagine being without them.

We investigated how Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35, contained in the GYNOPHILUS product, can combat yeast infections like Candida. This study showed that the product’s formulation, enhanced by sodium thiosulfate, improves its ability to kill yeast cells.
Remarkably, after 48 hours of co-culturing, the yeast’s viability dropped to zero. The presence of odor-active sulfur compounds, specifically S-methyl thioacetate, was linked to this antifungal effect.
Interestingly, achieving the full antifungal impact relies on these sulfur components.

We examined how a combination of ultra-low-dose estriol and lactobacilli affects vaginal health in postmenopausal women dealing with severe atrophic vaginitis while on aromatase inhibitors. Over 28 days, 16 breast cancer survivors used Gynoflor®, improving their vaginal flora. Remarkably, the lactobacillary grades increased significantly, alongside reductions in inflammatory markers like leukocytes and parabasal cells.
Although we observed a temporary spike in Candida colonization, it quickly returned to normal levels. Overall, these findings suggest that this treatment can effectively enhance vaginal health while being safe for women facing similar challenges.

We examined the effectiveness of various Lactobacillus strains, particularly Lactobacillus rhamnosus, against yeast infections caused by Candida. Through our analysis, we found that live probiotic cells and their cell-free supernatants showed strong anticandidal activity.
Notably, L. rhamnosus SD11 was especially effective, particularly when supplemented with prebiotics like mangosteen, leading to improved growth and metabolic activity. This suggests that combining probiotics and prebiotics might be a promising alternative treatment for Candida infections.

Probiotic shows potential against fungus
We investigated the effectiveness of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35® against Candida albicans using lab models. The study showed that this probiotic significantly reduced fungal growth and adhesion in cell cultures.
In the nematode model, it helped improve worm survival rates, even against detectable yeast. The probiotic appeared to suppress the fungus's virulence while also activating the worm's immune responses. Overall, the findings suggest that Lcr35® could be a promising strategy for combatting yeast infections.

Yeast and BV cleared

Satisfaction guaranteed! I ordered this product in desperation after a history of chronic BV that caused recurring yeast infections from antibiotics. I started taking two capsules twice a day and did nightly suppositories, and within two days, both the yeast infection and BV cleared up. I also experienced significant improvements in my digestive health, and I felt an increase in my energy levels. After running out of this product briefly, I quickly realised how much it benefited my overall wellbeing and purchased more. This probiotic truly has been a game changer for me.

No infections anymore

I've been using this brand for over a decade, specifically Renew Life probiotics, which I switched to after I started getting yeast infections. My obgyn recommended probiotics as a more effective solution than creams. Since then, I've not had a yeast infection in over ten years, nor any infections at all. I buy the 60 capsules from Amazon for the best price, taking just one a day while keeping the bottle refrigerated. I highly recommend Renew Life Women's Complete for women and Men's Complete for men; I won’t switch brands.

We examined the impacts of combining standard azole therapy with a local probiotic treatment to combat recurrent yeast infections. Involving 436 women, we divided participants into two groups: one receiving standard azole treatment alone and the other receiving the same treatment along with Lactobacillus acidophilus probiotics.
The results were telling. While over 79% of women in the azole-only group experienced lingering symptoms, those in the probiotic group saw this drop to just 31%. Additionally, microbiological success rates improved significantly, indicating that probiotics enhance the effectiveness of conventional treatments for vaginal Candida infections.

Potential ally against Candida infections
We explored how Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LR) can aid in fighting Candida infections. The study tested LR and other lactobacilli in both mouse macrophages and Galleria mellonella larvae.
Results showed that LR significantly boosted immune responses and enhanced larvae survival against Candida. In particular, it reduced yeast counts, showcasing its potential as an adjunct treatment for managing yeast infections.
Ultimately, LR stood out for its anti-Candida effects, making it a promising ally against these tough fungal threats.

We examined a series of studies focusing on the effects of Lactobacillus probiotics against Candida species, which cause yeast infections affecting many adult women. Reviewing 15 articles from 2015 to 2020, we noticed that particular strains like L. acidophilus can inhibit Candida growth.
Extended use of these probiotics seems to improve treatment outcomes, especially when combined with traditional medications. Our findings suggest that the combination of the right Lactobacillus strain and duration of use plays a crucial role in tackling these stubborn infections.
