In a healthy gastro-intestinal tract the internal micro flora consists of balanced amounts of native live bacteria. This balance is easily disrupted by poor dietary habits, nutritional deficiencies, lifestyle, stress, illness or medications. Under these conditions undesirable organisms such as candida albicans fungus can quickly overwhelm our protective native bacteria, leaving the small and large intestine vulnerable and prone to discomfort and unpleasant symptoms. This formulation is designed to help as part of a programme to address systemic candida and to promote digestive health.
Luckily, natural substances like Caprylic Acid (a naturally occurring fatty acid derived from plant oils) can help inhibit the growth of fungi and restore the gut balance.
- Garlic Powder: Probably one of the best known foods associated with natural anti-fungal properties. With research dating back to 1936 and long standing use in the history of natural food and herb medicine the antifungal properties are well documented
- Oregano Extract: Another well-established herb which has been shown to possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, used to retard and inhibit the growth of various food spoiling fungi and yeast organisms and demonstrating additional antifungal activity against non-pathogenic yeast
- Grapefruit Seed Extract: Grapefruit-seed extract often referred to as Citricidal has a long history of use as a cleansing agent. Research supports its use in combating a variety of common infectious agents, evidencing antibacterial activity against a number of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms
- Green Tea Extract: Green tea is a natural source of catechin considered to provide antimicrobial properties against oral, intestinal and food-borne bacteria. Research evidences extracts of green tea as a source of broad-spectrum antifungal activity against candida species
