We are sourcing from a non-probability frame and the two main sources we use are: Traditional online access panels - where respondents opt-in to take part in online market research for an incentiveProgrammatic - where respondents are online and are given the option to take part in a survey to receive a virtual incentive usually related to the online activity they are engaging in Those who did not fit the specified sample were terminated from the survey. As the survey is fielded, dynamic online sampling is used, adjusting targeting to achieve the quotas specified as part of the sampling plan. Regardless of which sources a respondent came from, they were directed to an Online Survey, where the survey was conducted in English; a link to the questionnaire can be shared upon request. Respondents were awarded points for completing the survey. These points have a small cash-equivalent monetary value. Cells are only reported on for analysis if they have a minimum of 80 respondents, and statistical significance is calculated at the 95% level. Data is not weighted, but quotas and other parameters are put in place to reach the desired sample. Interviews are excluded from the final analysis if they failed quality-checking measures. This includes: Speeders: Respondents who complete the survey in a time that is quicker than one-third of the median length of interview are disqualified as speedersOpen ends: All verbatim responses (full open-ended questions as well as other please specify options) are checked for inappropriate or irrelevant textBots: Captcha is enabled on surveys, which allows the research team to identify and disqualify botsDuplicates: Survey software has "deduping" based on digital fingerprinting, which ensures nobody is allowed to take the survey more than once It is worth noting that this survey was only available to individuals with internet access, and the results may not be generalizable to those without internet access.

It's not just personal; it's communal. A new survey commissioned by Florastor – Gut Check: What's Stressing Women Out? – reveals that 73 percent of women take on the stress of their friends and family, often acting as emotional first responders. The toll? The survey found that 72 percent of those women admit they feel both societal and internal pressure to take on this emotional labor. And it's no wonder — 60 percent of those surveyed believe it's more stressful to be a woman in 2025 than ever before. As stress increasingly disrupts everything from mental health to digestion, Florastor is amplifying the call to protect women's health from the inside out and launching the new Her Florastor Digest + De-stress Probiotics, the only probiotic to tackle digestion, vaginal health and stress – all in one!

Despite this heavy emotional load, only 18 percent of women are "very open" with friends and family about their stress levels, and another 52 percent often fake being "fine" when they aren't. The emotional burden isn't going unnoticed — 63 percent of women believe their stress levels are equal to or even higher than those of the men in their lives. The desire for relief is so strong that 26 percent of women said they would delete social media, and 14 percent would even sleep on the floor, if it meant cutting their stress in half. Recognizing the unique ways stress impacts women's health, especially gut health, Florastor has introduced Her Florastor Digest + De-stress Probiotic, a daily probiotic designed to help women feel their best.

"The insights from our recent survey show just how many women are carrying the weight of stress daily, often at the expense of their overall well-being. Her Florastor was created to provide targeted digestive, vaginal, and stress relief support, all in one daily probiotic backed by trusted science, because when all systems are go, women can take on anything."
