The last few days have seen a flurry of criticism of Kourtney Kardashian’s new vaginal health gummies (Lemme Purr) on social media, also known as probiotics for the vagina.
They are marketed as “Lemme Purr,” aiming to enhance the vagina’s flavor and aroma. However, this has drawn much criticism and has been labeled sexist.
“Your… she’s going to love this… Meet Lemme Purr: our new vaginal health gummy! Vaginal health is such an important part of a woman’s overall well-being (and not talked about enough), which is why we’re so excited to launch this! Give your vagina the sweet pleasure it deserves (and make it a sweet treat). You know what they say… you are what you eat.” The Kardashian claimed in an Instagram post
The world over, vitamin supplements are very well-liked. Many think taking vitamins can make them healthier or make up for a nutrient-poor diet.
Gummy vitamins are chewable vitamins that taste and feel like candy and come in various flavors, colors, and shapes.
The Kardashians have specifically marketed this to women and other sex-oriented groups.
Lemme Purr is described as a “tasty little treat in the form of a jelly bean with some powerful features” on Poosh, Kim Kardashian’s wellness blog.
The product contains stable forms of Bacillus coagulans SNZ 1969 and is rich in vitamin C to guard against bacterial vaginosis-caused urinary tract infections.
The vitamin gummies also include pineapple extract, which Kourtney Kardashian adds to make them even more delectable.
She does, however, face some criticism. The notion that your vagina is dirty and must smell like a flower or taste like a bakery is absurd, according to obstetrician and gynecologist Carolyn Moyers, who spoke to the media outlet BuzzFeed.
The vagina cleans itself; she went on to say. It skews our conception of the female body, giving women the impression that there is a problem with them, and it feeds the myth that we are defective and must alter our physical features to look attractive. “.
