Flora-Q is the brand name for a strain of bacteria called Lactobacillus acidophilus. Lactobacillus acidophilus is naturally found in the human body - mostly in the vagina, mouth and gastrointestinal tract. Its function there is to prevent the development of harmful bacteria by helping stabilize the acidic environment. Lactobacillus acidophilus - translated as “acid-loving milk-bacterium” - ferments sugars into lactic acid. It grows at a relatively low pH and at a temperature of around 30 °C (86 °F). Lactobacillus acidophilus is used by those seeking treatment or prevention for yeast infections of the vagina or mouth, stomach problems, antibiotic-associated diarrhea and urinary tract infections. A vaginal yeast infection can happen when the naturally occurring yeast found in the body becomes too great in number. The acid made by Lactobacillus acidophilus in the vagina helps to steam the growth of the fungus Candida albicans. By doing so it helps stop unwanted vaginal yeast infections. The same positive effect has been recorded in sufferers of gastrointestinal or oral Candidiasis infections.
