Just about all of us like the taste of sugar. It’s OK to have a donut or candy bar every once in a while, but if you feel like you

need to consume sugar on a constant basis, that could mean you have a sugar addiction. Trust us, it’s more common than you think (read more about that

target="_blank">here). Eating too much sugar can lead to tooth decay, put you at risk for diabetes, overload your liver, overstimulate your brain and can even increase your chance of being

diagnosed with cancer. As far as your vagina? Your body produces a natural amount of yeast and yeast feeds off of sugar. Too much in your system can lead to

a yeast infection. To avoid this, eat less processed sugar and more fresh fruits and vegetables.

Your vagina is naturally moist. But when it’s damp and wet outside, you should avoid wearing nylon or synthetic underwear. Humidity can still happen in cooler temperatures and if your

vagina doesn’t get to breathe, that can be a breeding ground for yeast, bacteria and odor. For this reason, cotton panties are always best.

Tights are one of the best fall fashion accessories. But they are made of nylon and can also “trap” your vagina. To keep bacteria and odor from setting in, wash

your tights out, by hand, every time after wearing them. Run some warm water into your bathroom sink, put some detergent for delicate fabric in it and let the tights

soak. Then gently rub them together and rinse with warm water. If yours happen to have a musty smell, pour a ½ cup of vinegar or a few drops of

tea tree oil in the crotch area and let the tight soak for 15 minutes before rinsing them out.

Warm tea is so soothing during the autumn season. We’re big fans of chamomile, passion fruit and rooibos, but for your vagina’s sake, don’t forget about black tea too. It

contains lots of antioxidants. It has polyphenols that keep your mouth free of decay. Black tea also contains tannins that will protect your digestive tract, caffeine to increase your energy

and alkylamine antigens to improve your immune system. As far as your vaginal health, a study indicates that women who drink black tea regularly can decrease their chances of having

ovarian cancer by as much as 22 percent. (Black and green tea can help you to lose weight too.)

If you live in an area where there is a dry climate, that can affect your vagina too. Avoid using fragranced soaps or douching; including apple cider vinegar. It’s good

for a lot of things, but not daily vaginal cleansing. Vinegar will only dry it out and make it irritated. If your vagina is drier than usual, eat foods high

in Vitamin E. They help to keep it lubricated and are also considered to be natural aphrodisiacs. Some of those include almonds, kale, avocados, parsley and papaya. Moisturizing with coconut

oil will help too, and don’t forget to drink water on a daily basis. All of these things will keep your vagina in excellent condition during Fall.
