They are:
1. Asparagus
Asparagus is not a good food for the vagina….it destroys the normal vaginal pH flora and makes it a suitable environment for BV causing bacteria to thrive and grow….Most women that consumes alot of asparagus come down with recurrent BV.
2. Coffee
The caffeine in coffee is what is most sought after by coffee drinkers because it keeps one alert and mentally sharp. However, coffee is not good for vagina health. It dries it up and promotes the multiplication bad bacteria causing vaginosis….
3. Alcohol
Alcohol is a red flag for BV…women who consumes a lot of alcohol are always coming down with both yeast infection and bacteria vaginosis… Don’t forget that alcohol is an immunosuppressant that predisposes the the body to all kinds of opportunistic infection like BV and candidiasis.
4. Refined foods
Refined foods are not the best for vaginal health…Refined sugar for example, distorts the normal vaginal pH making the bacteria causing vaginosis to thrive and cause serious harm.
5. Smoking
Smoking shrinks the penis is a fact. Not only that, smoking dries up the vaginnnaa….women who smoke stand a higher chances of developing bacteria vaginosis at short intervals…. Stopping smoking alone, will relief bacteria vaginosis by about 50 percent.
6. Processed meat
We love processed meat…but do you know eating too much of precessed meat meat washes away the changes the pH of the vaginnnaa flora and helps the bad bacteria to grow? Moderate your consumption of precessed meat as a women.
7. Sharwama
You like sharwama right? But be careful, it is one of the foods to avoid to prevent you from catching BV… sharwama contains loads of refined products not suitable for the growth and survival of the vaginal flora….be careful.
8. Yoni pearls
Though not a food…yoni pearls and the numerous feminine wash in the markets are serious culprits in BV…kindly don’t use them for your own health. Other inserts should be avoides also. Don’t put anything inside your body….your …..is a self cleansing organ. Stop trying to help it to perform a function it can carryout better than you.
