FH PRObiotic for Male Fertility

First Probiotic Targeted for Male Fertility. With six unique strains of friendly bacteria – Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidophilus – FH PRObiotic is designed to help maintain friendly bacteria. A healthy balance between friendly and unfriendly bacteria is well known to support overall health, and emerging research suggests a role for probiotics in supporting male fertility and sperm health.

Tip the Scales In Favor Of Healthy Bacteria. Unfriendly Bacteria Overpowering Friendly Bacteria. Each of us has a unique microbiome, a collection of trillions of microrganisms – some friendly, some unfriendly – that live inside our body. We are learning more and more every day about the role this microbiome plays in supporting overall health, but this we know for sure: obesity, subpar diets (high in fat, sugar and processed foods), stress, and lack of exercise can cause an imbalance in the amount of healthy bacteria compared to unfriendly bacteria present in our microbiome. With FH PRObiotic, you can help your body replenish friendly bacteria, which we are now learning is important for male fertility and sperm health.

Six Strains of Friendly Bacteria Chosen Specifically for Male Fertility Support*. With six unique strains of friendly bacteria – Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidophilus – FH PRObiotic is designed to help replenish friendly bacteria that support sperm health. While it is not yet fully understood how oral probiotics benefit sperm health, it has been theorized that by replenishing healthy bacteria in the gut, testicles and prostate, there is a reduction in inflammation and oxidative stress, as well as healthy production of testosterone – all of which supports sperm health.

Do testicles have their own microbiome? Until very recently, it was believed that the testes (testicles) were a completely “microbiologically sterile” environment, meaning that no bacteria – good or bad – lived naturally in this important male reproductive organ. Researchers are now finding, however, that testicles do in fact have a microbiome, and that men with different levels of sperm health and fertility have a different combination of bacteria. This discovery has led to the development of one of the key theories about how oral probiotics support sperm health – by providing healthy strains of bacteria, it changes the bacterial composition – shifting to a more healthy ratio of beneficial to unfriendly bacteria – in the testicular microbiome.
