EstroG-100® Spotlight: Unlocking the Power of Natural Menopause Support

If you’re navigating the changes of menopause, chances are you’ve heard about EstroG-100®.

This cutting-edge ingredient is part of the essential blend of our newest product, For Women Menopause Support. Our product development team at Stonehenge Health has done extensive research into EstroG-100®, and we thought we’d take a minute to give you the complete story of this incredible scientific breakthrough for women’s health.  

Let’s examine why this powerhouse natural ingredient is gaining so much attention and how it can help you regain control over your body during menopause.

What is EstroG-100®?

Oriental medicine wilfordi root, Cynanchum wilfordii Hemsley.

EstroG-100® is a patented plant-based blend that combines red angelica (Angelica gigas Nakai), silk plant (Cynanchum wilfordii), and fireweed plant (Phlomis umbrosa Turczaninow) extracts that helps address ten of the most commonly reported menopausal complaints.* These three botanical extracts have been traditionally used in Eastern medicine to support women’s health. 

These ingredients work together to ease a wide range of menopause conditions, from hot flashes and night sweats to mood swings and sleep disturbances.*

What sets EstroG-100® apart is that it doesn’t contain phytoestrogens, which are naturally occurring compounds found in plants that have a similar structure to the hormone estrogen. This makes it a unique non-hormonal option for menopause support. Clinical studies show it can effectively ease conditions.*

EstroG-100® has undergone rigorous safety evaluations by the FDA as a new dietary ingredient (NDI) and by Health Canada, ensuring it meets strict safety standards.

How EstroG-100® Works with Your Body

Group Of Mature Female Friends On Outdoor Yoga Retreat Walking Along Path Through Campsite

EstroG-100® works by helping balance the body’s stress response, and manage cortisol levels, which can contribute to fewer mood swings, better sleep quality, and improved overall well-being.*

Clinical trials have shown that women using EstroG-100® experienced support for menopause conditions faster than those using other remedies. The results speak for themselves… 

After just 12 weeks, women reported significant improvements in both physical and emotional well-being.* Many of these unpleasant conditions were reduced by more than 50% in women taking EstroG-100 compared to those taking a placebo.* 

We’ll dive deeper into the clinical studies later in this article.

3 Key Benefits of EstroG-100®

Now that you know what EstroG-100® is and how it works, let’s break down the top benefits it offers.

1. Eases Menopause Conditions

From hot flashes to joint discomfort, EstroG-100® has been clinically proven to ease a variety of menopause conditions.* It helps to rebalance your body’s internal responses and brings much-needed support during this life transition.*

2. Boosts Mood

The fluctuations in hormones during menopause can take a toll on your mood. EstroG-100® helps boost mood; making it easier to feel your best every day.*

3. Promotes Better Sleep

woman in bed sleeping

Menopause can wreak havoc on sleep, but EstroG-100® helps support deeper, more restful sleep by reducing night sweats and regulating cortisol levels. Imagine waking up refreshed and ready to take on the day again!*

These benefits are all documented in a series of human clinical studies. 

EstroG-100® Clinical Trials

For Women Menopause Support

Now let’s take a look at two clinical studies showing the efficacy of EstroG-100®. 

A clinical study by Cheng et al. (2019) showed significant improvement in menopausal conditions among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. In a 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 64 participants, the EstroG-100® group saw a 61.7% reduction in Kupperman Menopause Index (KMI) scores.

Note: The Kupperman Menopause Index (KMI) is a scoring system used to measure the severity of menopausal conditions. It evaluates 12 conditions, assigning each a score based on its severity—a higher score indicates more severity. A lower KMI score after treatment, such as with EstroG-100®, reflects an improvement in conditions. 

Key issues like hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, and fatigue improved significantly compared to the placebo group, with the largest reduction seen in hot flashes (61.6%) and cold sweats. Insomnia improved by 40.5%, and paresthesia (numbness and tingling) decreased by 49.5%.

In another 12-week trial by Kim et al. (2022), EstroG-100® further improved conditions like paresthesia (20.3%), muscle discomfort (35.2%), melancholia (feeling the blues) (20.3%), and vertigo (37.9%) over the placebo group. Importantly, no adverse effects were reported, and there were no significant changes in body weight, BMI, hormone levels, or liver function, confirming the safety of EstroG-100® for managing menopausal conditions.

The incredible results from these studies led our product team at Stonehenge Health to include EstroG-100® as one of the hero ingredients in For Women Menopause Support.

Supercharge the Benefits of EstroG-100® with Our Menopause Support Blend

EstroG-100® on its own is a powerful ally for menopause support, but when combined with other research-backed ingredients like Chromax® and KSM-66® Ashwagandha, it delivers comprehensive support for weight management, stress relief, and many of the most common menopausal conditions.*

Chromax® helps with fat loss by improving insulin sensitivity and promoting better metabolism. 

KSM-66 Ashwagandha is a top-tier adaptogen known for easing stress and improving sleep quality.*

By bringing these ingredients together, our For Women Menopause Support supplement offers a holistic approach to managing menopause—so you can feel more balanced, energized, and in control every day.*

Vaginal Probiotics: Everything You Need to Know

Woman taking vitamins
Woman taking vitamins

Vaginal probiotics are becoming increasingly popular as a natural solution for supporting vaginal health.

Whether you’re dealing with something recurring or simply want to maintain a healthy balance, probiotics may offer a safe and effective way to care for your vaginal microbiome. 

In this article, we’ll provide an overview of what vaginal probiotics are and how they work, key benefits, and practical tips for choosing the right product and using it effectively.

Let’s dive into the basics of vaginal probiotics!

What Are Vaginal Probiotics?

Woman Drinking Water and smiling

First off, probiotics—in general—are live microorganisms that provide health benefits when taken in the right amounts. While many people associate probiotics with gut health, vaginal probiotics are specifically designed to promote balance in the vaginal microbiome.

The vaginal microbiome is a community of bacteria that helps maintain a healthy pH level and protects the vagina.

The most important bacteria in this environment are species of Lactobacillus, which produce lactic acid to keep the vagina slightly acidic. This acidity discourages harmful bacteria and yeast from growing. 

However, factors like stress, antibiotics, and hormonal changes can disrupt this balance.

Vaginal probiotics aim to restore the natural bacterial balance by introducing beneficial bacteria directly into the vaginal environment. Unlike regular probiotics meant for digestion, vaginal probiotics are tailored to specifically support the vaginal microbiome.

How Do Vaginal Probiotics Work?

Woman in bathroom holding stomach

Just like the stomach has both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bacteria, so does the vaginal and urinary tract. 

Vaginal probiotics work by replenishing the beneficial or good bacteria that help maintain balance in the vaginal microbiome and keep it thriving. 

The primary bacteria in this ecosystem, Lactobacillus species, play a crucial role in keeping the vaginal environment acidic, which prevents harmful organisms like Candida (yeast) and Gardnerella (responsible for bacterial vaginosis) from growing.

Vaginal probiotics introduce these beneficial strains back into the system. This can help rebalance the vaginal flora, especially if it has been disrupted by antibiotics, hormonal changes, or bad bacteria. 

By promoting a healthy level of Lactobacillus, vaginal probiotics support a stable pH level, which is key to preventing infections and reducing symptoms like itching, discharge, and odor.

In other words, vaginal probiotics act as reinforcements for your body’s natural defenses, helping to crowd out harmful bacteria while allowing good bacteria to flourish. This is why they are especially beneficial for people prone to the dreaded and uncomfortable recurring conditions.

4 Benefits of Vaginal Probiotics

The use of vaginal probiotics offers a variety of benefits for both vaginal health and overall wellness.

1. Maintaining a Healthy Vaginal pH

A balanced vaginal pH is critical for promoting optimal vaginal health. Vaginal probiotics, especially those containing Lactobacillus strains, help maintain the slightly acidic environment that prevents harmful bacteria and yeast from thriving.

2. Prevention and Management

The beneficial bacteria introduced through probiotics inhibit the growth of harmful pathogens, making it harder for bad bacteria to take hold and grow.

3. Supporting Urinary Tract Health

Though more research is needed, some studies suggest that the balance of bacteria in the vagina is linked to urinary tract health.

4. Boosting Overall Immune Health

Your microbiome plays a vital role in your immune response. By maintaining healthy bacteria levels, vaginal probiotics may also contribute to your overall immune function. 

Vaginal probiotics offer these benefits by supporting your body’s natural defense mechanisms, helping you achieve long-term wellness.

How to Choose the Right Vaginal Probiotic

Selecting the right vaginal probiotic can make all the difference in achieving positive results. Here are some important factors to consider when choosing a product.

Check for Clinically Proven Strains

Doctor women reproductive system

Not all probiotic strains are equally effective for vaginal health. Look for products that contain well-researched strains, such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus reuteri. These strains have been studied extensively for their ability to restore and maintain a healthy vaginal flora.

Consider the CFU Count

Capsules supplements

Colony-forming units (CFUs) indicate the number of live bacteria in each dose of the probiotic. For vaginal health, a product with a CFU count between 1-30 billion is usually sufficient, but too few may not be effective. Aim for a balanced CFU count that fits your specific needs.

Choose the Right Form: Oral vs. Suppository

Vaginal probiotics are available in oral capsules, vaginal suppositories, and even in the form of creams. Oral probiotics can be convenient, but suppositories may provide quicker results for those dealing with active infections or imbalances. Consider your preferences and the urgency of your needs when deciding which form to use.

Look for Additives and Ingredients

Woman looking at the labels of bottle

Be sure to check labels for additives or fillers. Some probiotics include unnecessary ingredients like artificial colors, preservatives, or sugars that may irritate sensitive vaginal tissues. Opt for products with minimal, natural ingredients to avoid potential side effects.

Read Reviews and Seek Recommendations

Dynamic Biotics+ for Women

It’s always helpful to read user reviews or seek recommendations from healthcare providers. Look for products with high customer satisfaction, especially from individuals with similar health concerns.

“The quality of my life is 8 times better.”* – Olga K.

“I feel cleaner and more confident.”* – Seleka W.

By paying attention to these key factors, you can find a vaginal probiotic that fits your needs and supports long-term vaginal health.

If you’re looking for a high-quality vaginal probiotic, Stonehenge Health’s Dynamic Biotics+ for Women is designed to specifically support vaginal health. 

With strains like Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus reuteri, which have been clinically proven to promote a balanced vaginal flora, Dynamic Biotics+ for Women can help you maintain optimal health.* It’s also formulated with a 70 billion CFU count and includes 16 unique strains to target both vaginal and gut health.

As an added benefit, Dynamic Biotics+ for Women is not only a vaginal probiotic, it’s a 3-in-1 Super Biotic!

If you’ve researched joint health, you’ve undoubtedly heard many claims about the glucosamine and chondroitin combination. 

Note: We’ve written previously about why many of those claims are misleading

But there’s an innovative joint health ingredient you may not have heard of yet: AprèsFlex®.

AprèsFlex® has a fascinating, science-backed story of efficacy, and that ’s the topic of this article. 
Let’s dive into the key reasons why AprèsFlex® is becoming the gold standard for joint comfort and why it’s the hero ingredient in Stonehenge Health’s Dynamic Joint formula.*

What is AprèsFlex®?

Boswellia tree - frankincense - flower buds

AprèsFlex® is a next-generation extract of Boswellia serrata, a resin used for centuries in traditional medicine to ease joint discomfort and promote flexibility. But what sets AprèsFlex® apart is its unique ability to ease discomfort in as little as five days—a claim backed by multiple clinical studies.* As well as Stonehenge Health‘s in-house user group.

Let’s look closely at the science driving this joint health game changer.

The Science Behind AprèsFlex®

Joint discomfort and stiffness are often the results of everyday wear and tear. AprèsFlex® works to address this by targeting this at the source.* 

Certain pathways in the human body release chemicals that can cause acute inflammation. One specific pathway is the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway. Numerous studies have shown that Boswellia serrata can block this pathway from causing joint impairment.*

What makes AprèsFlex® unique is that it contains potent Boswellia serrata extracts standardized to contain a higher concentration of active compounds (AKBA) compared to standard Boswellia extracts. 

This enhanced formula improves bioavailability—meaning it’s absorbed more effectively into the bloodstream, allowing the body to experience faster and more efficient relief from joint discomfort.*

Clinical studies show that AprèsFlex® works rapidly, with noticeable improvements in joint comfort, mobility, and function within 5 days of use.* 

Even better? The benefits continue to build over time with consistent use, leading to lasting ease and improved mobility. This makes it an ideal ingredient for supporting long-term joint mobility and comfort.*
OK, so that’s the science of AprèsFlex®. But what does that look like for you; what types of changes can you expect in your day-to-day life?

3 Key Benefits of AprèsFlex® for Joint Health

Now that you understand how AprèsFlex® works, let’s break down the specific ways it can enhance your joint health:

1. Reduces Joint Discomfort

One of the standout features of AprèsFlex® is that it’s fast-acting.* Within days, many people experience a significant ease in joint discomfort, making it easier to enjoy physical activities and maintain an active lifestyle.*

“I had a lot of discomfort in my right shoulder…I was really surprised after about four days I wasn’t experiencing any more discomfort and my shoulder felt normal.”** – Lara

2. Enhances Mobility and Flexibility

By inhibiting the enzymes responsible for acute inflammation, AprèsFlex® helps improve joint flexibility and range of motion.* This allows for smoother, more comfortable movement—whether you’re tackling your daily tasks or hitting the gym.*

“I would absolutely recommend Stonehenge Dynamic Joint… I got all that mobility back…And I was able to be back at the gym doing bicep curls and triceps.”** – Peter

3. Long-Term Joint Support

AprèsFlex® doesn’t just provide temporary support; with continued use, it promotes long-term joint health by addressing the underlying causes of acute inflammation.* This means you can enjoy better joint function and comfort for years to come.*

“I want to say about 90% of my stiffness is gone in my left knee.”** – Jessica

Here’s what the benefits look like over time.

Collagen & Vitamin C: The Perfect Pairing for Youthful Skin and Strong Joints

Portrait of smiling middle age woman touching her face
Portrait of smiling middle age woman touching her face

Do you ever notice how nobody eats just a peanut butter sandwich? Where’s the jelly? 

It just doesn’t work. 

This is the same for collagen and Vitamin C. Our bodies need collagen to support skin health, joint support, and overall wellness, but we can’t produce it if we don’t have enough Vitamin C. 

Why is that? 

Today, I want to dive into the synergistic relationship between collagen and Vitamin C. I’ll show you how it works, why it’s important, and what you can do to ensure you get your recommended daily dose. 

Let’s get started!

What is Collagen, and Why Do You Need It? 

Woman,With,Perfect,Skin,After,Cosmetic,Treatment,On,Grey,Background.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It supports your skin, bones, tendons, and connective tissues. 

Think of collagen like the framework of a beautiful building—your body. Just like framing supports walls and keeps everything in place, collagen is the framework that helps support your skin’s strength, your joints’ flexibility, and your bones’ integrity.

Your body makes collagen, but we begin to lose it as we age, and the body makes less. Collagen loss starts as early as 18 years old.

When your collagen levels decline, your body can show signs of aging, like wrinkles in your skin, joint discomfort, and other common issues. 

Replenishing collagen is like reinforcing the scaffolding of an aging building. That’s why when people add collagen to their diets, they may experience a reduction in wrinkles and fine lines.

How is Vitamin C Connected to Collagen Production?

woman facing the sun with long hair

Vitamin C plays a role in supporting the immune system’s function. But did you know vitamin C is also an essential co-factor in collagen biosynthesis? Vitamin C plays a role in producing pro-collagen, the body’s precursor to collagen. 

Without sufficient Vitamin C, your body cannot effectively produce or maintain collagen, which can lead to weakened connective tissues and skin irregularities.

But when you do get enough Vitamin C your body can do amazing things with it and provide you with incredible benefits, such as:

Skin Health

Vitamin C’s antioxidant properties also protect from damage caused by free radicals responsible for premature aging. This makes Vitamin C not only crucial for collagen production but also for preserving the collagen you already have.

Joint and Bone Health

Collagen is a vital component of cartilage, the tissue that cushions joints. That’s why Vitamin C helps to maintain healthy joints.

To Maximize Collagen Production, Pair it With Vitamin C

As you may know, there are many ways to source collagen. Certain foods are rich in collagen (like bone broth), and you can also get it from supplements. 

But again, you’ll have much better results if you pair collagen intake with Vitamin C, also found in some foods (such as citrus fruits, berries, and leafy greens) or supplements. This combination supports the body’s natural collagen production, leading to healthier skin, stronger joints, and a more youthful appearance.

And if you want to make it super easy to ensure your pairing the right amounts of collagen and Vitamin C, you can take a supplement pairing like Dynamic Joint and Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C.  

Let’s take a closer look at these supplements regarding their ability to deliver collagen and Vitamin C. 

If you’re looking to enhance your mobility or flexibility—or simply maintain the health of your cartilage—Dynamic Joint by Stonehenge Health is your daily ally.* Dynamic Joint contains Collagen Types I, II, V, and X, and it also has another secret weapon against joint discomfort… 

It’s called AprèsFlex®.

AprèsFlex® is a highly potent extract of Boswellia serrata that supports optimal joint function and is clinically shown to provide joint comfort in as little as 5 days.*

And when you pair this leading joint health supplement with Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C, you’re giving that collagen the support it needs to help your joint stay strong and mobile.* 

Stonehenge Health’s Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C delivers superior immune support by using advanced liposomal technology for maximum absorption.* This powerful formula promotes radiant skin, aids in collagen production, and fights free radicals, helping to keep your body strong and healthy.*

Do You Need a Vitamin C Supplement?

Beauty Concept. Portrait Of Mature Woman Looking At Mirror In Bathroom
Beauty Concept. Portrait Of Mature Woman Looking At Mirror In Bathroom

This is a frequently asked question here at Stonehenge Health; we probably receive an email like this at least once a week: 

“Do I need a Vitamin C supplement?”

Let’s answer that question now.

Vitamin C is essential for your body and health, and supplementation is the best way to ensure your body gets (and absorbs) the proper amount daily. 

So that’s the short answer to your question, but I want to give you all the research and science so you can make your own decision. In this article, I’ll unpack the role of Vitamin C for health (beyond immunity), why your diet may not be enough, and how to get the most out of your supplement.

Let’s get started!

The Critical Role of Vitamin C in Your Health

Food high in vitamin C (ascorbic acid) for strong immune system and skin health. Fresh fruits and vegetables as natural sources of vitamin C. Healthy foods rich in vitamin C.

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is vital in several key bodily functions. One of its most well-known benefits is boosting the immune system function, helping your body ward off germs more effectively. This powerful antioxidant neutralizes free radicals, which can damage cells and accelerate aging, making it crucial for long-term health.

Beyond immunity, Vitamin C is essential for collagen production, which keeps your skin firm, youthful, and elastic. Collagen is also important for wound healing and maintaining the health of your cartilage, bones, and blood vessels. 

Another important function of Vitamin C is enhancing iron absorption from plant-based foods. This is especially important for people on vegetarian or vegan diets who rely on non-heme iron sources, which are less easily absorbed by the body. 

Despite its importance, studies show many people may not get enough Vitamin C.1 

Therefore, taking a supplement can help ensure your body gets the Vitamin C needed to stay healthy and strong.

Why Your Diet May Not Provide Enough Vitamin C

Diet concept, pushing away processed food

Many people believe that a well-balanced diet can provide all necessary nutrients, including Vitamin C. While this might be true in theory, modern dietary habits often make it difficult to achieve optimal levels of Vitamin C every day. 

Several factors, including the reliance on processed foods and the reduced nutrient content of fresh produce, contribute to this gap.

Processed foods, which have become a staple in many households, often contain little to no Vitamin C. The refining processes used in manufacturing strip away essential nutrients, leaving behind empty calories. Even those who prioritize whole foods can run into challenges, as the Vitamin C content in fresh produce begins to degrade during transport and storage.

Furthermore, lifestyle factors such as stress, smoking, and environmental pollutants increase your body’s need for Vitamin C. People frequently exposed to pollution or with high-stress jobs may even require higher levels of antioxidants, including Vitamin C.

Even if you’re eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, getting enough Vitamin C can still be difficult. Food storage, preparation methods, and individual digestive absorption rates can impact how much Vitamin C your body gets from your food. For example, cooking can reduce the Vitamin C content in vegetables, as they are sensitive to heat.

Given these challenges, diet alone may not be enough to maintain optimal Vitamin C levels. 

That’s where supplementation becomes crucial in consistently meeting your body’s needs. We like to think of it as an insurance policy to fill in the nutritional Vitamin C gaps.

Benefits of Taking a Vitamin C Supplement

By consistently meeting your RDA (recommended dietary allowance) of Vitamin C, you can help your body function optimally, and you’ll be better protected.

A stronger immune system function is one of the most immediate benefits of supplementing with Vitamin C. It enhances the function of immune cells, helping your body respond more effectively to pathogens. 

Vitamin C supplements offer an additional benefit for those who struggle with iron deficiency: they help improve the absorption of non-heme iron, which is found in plant-based foods. This is particularly useful for vegetarians, vegans, or individuals who do not consume enough animal-based iron sources. 

Supplementation provides a reliable and consistent source of Vitamin C, which can help prevent deficiencies that may not always be noticeable immediately but could impact your health over time.

Liposomes: The Key to Vitamin C Absorption

Stonehenge Health Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C

When it comes to Vitamin C supplements, not all forms are created equal…

One of the major issues with traditional Vitamin C supplements is that the body struggles to absorb large amounts of the nutrient efficiently. This is where liposomal Vitamin C offers a superior solution, ensuring your body gets the full benefit of every capsule.*

The problem with many Vitamin C supplements lies in their water-soluble nature. When taken in large doses, much of the Vitamin C gets flushed out of the body through urine before it can be absorbed and used effectively. This not only limits the amount of Vitamin C available to your cells but also reduces the overall benefit of the supplement.

Liposomal Vitamin C solves this absorption issue by using a specialized delivery system. In this form, Vitamin C is encapsulated in liposomes, which are tiny lipid (fat) molecules that protect it as it passes through your digestive system. These liposomes allow Vitamin C to bypass the stomach’s harsh environment and ensure it is absorbed directly into the bloodstream, delivering more of the nutrient to your cells.

This enhanced absorption makes liposomal Vitamin C far more effective than traditional forms. Because the nutrient is encapsulated in fat, it is absorbed at a much higher rate, ensuring that more Vitamin C reaches your cells where it’s needed most. 

In short, here are the benefits of a liposomal delivery system for Vitamin C: 

Protection: The liposomes protect the contents from being broken down too quickly by the body’s natural processes.

Targeted delivery: These liposomes can be made to find and deliver their contents specifically to certain parts of the body or types of cells.

Controlled release: Liposomes can release their contents slowly over time or respond to specific conditions in the body. 

Safe and gentle: Since liposomes are made from materials similar to our own cells, they are usually safe and don’t cause much irritation or immune reaction.

When choosing a Vitamin C supplement, it’s essential to look for one that uses a liposomal delivery system. Not only does it offer superior absorption, but it also reduces the likelihood of digestive discomfort, such as bloating or gas, which can sometimes occur with high doses of traditional Vitamin C.* 

With liposomal Vitamin C, you can be confident that your body is receiving the full benefit of this essential nutrient, making it the best choice for maintaining optimal health.

The bottom line is that if your supplement uses liposomal technology, your body can absorb and retain higher amounts of Vitamin C.* 

In conclusion, I hope that answers the question, “Do you need a Vitamin C supplement?”—It’s a yes if you’re looking to consistently support your overall health, from a robust immune system to glowing skin.

Stonehenge Health’s Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C stands out as the ultimate solution. Thanks to its advanced liposomal delivery system, you’ll enjoy superior absorption, ensuring that every capsule works harder and delivers the full benefits where your body needs it most.

Don’t settle for less when it comes to your health—choose Dynamic Liposomal Vitamin C and give your body the high-quality, effective support it deserves.

Kefir Ice Cream

Kefir grains in wooden spoon in front of cups of Kefir Yogurt Parfaits. Kefir is one of the best health foods available providing powerful probiotics.

This is not your typical ice cream from the grocery store… 

Instead, try this tangy and refreshing ice cream made with kefir, a fermented milk drink rich in probiotics. This dessert offers a creamy texture with a slight tartness, perfect for those who enjoy a less-sweet treat. Add natural flavorings like vanilla, fruit, or a touch of honey to enhance the taste.

Ingredients:

• 1 Cup of plain kefir

• 1 Tbsp. honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

• 1 Tsp. of vanilla extract

• 1 Cup Frozen Fruit (ex: banana, berries, or mango)

• Optional: Top with handful of dark chocolate chip or coconut flakes

Instructions:

1. Mix the base: In a blender, combine the kefir, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and frozen fruit. Blend until the mixture has air bubbles and has a frothy appearance

2. Note: You may need to use a hand mixer AFTER the blender to start seeing air bubbles

3. Chill the mixture: Pour mixture into an air tight container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is thoroughly chilled. This helps with the ice cream’s texture.

At this point, you can either serve your ice cream topped with dark chocolate chips and coconut flakes or with a side of fresh fruit, or (and I highly recommend this!) you can fire up your oven and get started on some of the most delicious brownies you’ve ever tasted.

These miso and caramel brownies are a great change of pace to elevate your palette and impress your friends because we’ve swapped into probiotic rich greek yogurt in place of eggs. 

A fusion of sweet and savory, these brownies are infused with miso, a fermented soybean paste containing probiotics. The miso adds a unique depth of flavor to the rich, fudgy brownies, creating a dessert that’s both indulgent and beneficial for your gut.

Ingredients for the brownies:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter

• 8 ounces dark chocolate, chopped

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 2 tablespoons water

• 1/4 cup heavy cream

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 2 teaspoons white or yellow miso paste

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

Make the brownie batter

2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. 

3. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the sugar, greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until well combined. 

4. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, and fold until the batter is smooth and no dry streaks remain.

Make the miso caramel:

5. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and turns a deep amber color.

6. Remove from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream and butter until smooth. The mixture will bubble up, so be cautious.

7. Stir in the miso paste until fully incorporated. Set aside to cool slightly.

Assemble and bake:

8. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

9. Drizzle half of the miso caramel over the batter.

10. Pour the remaining brownie batter on top, spreading it evenly, then drizzle the remaining caramel on top.

11. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the caramel into the brownie batter, creating a marbled effect.

Bake: 

12. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Cool and serve

13. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy the rich, fudgy brownies with a hint of savory miso caramel.

Better yet, pair with your kefir ice cream for a unique and fun flavor you won’t find anywhere else! 

These recipes should provide you with unique, probiotic-containing desserts that are as delicious as they are supportive for gut health. 

I try my best to swap in ingredients and eat foods that will agree better with my digestive system, but it can be difficult at times.
