A natural, 2-part formula of herbs traditionally used to support detoxification of Candida and Yeast. Formulated to be taken in harmony with your normal daily activity. Candida Albicans, a common yeast, is part of the regular flora (bacteria) in the digestive tract. In a healthy state, they live in a ratio of about one candida to one million other bacteria. Due to many modern-day factors, this yeast can proliferate out of correct proportion. Yeast overgrowth-related disorders may then develop, such as yeast infections, rectal itch, constipation, bloating, skin problems, and many others. With long term infestation, this candida yeast shifts into a fungal form which develops roots, called rhizoids, that can grow right into the intestinal wall. These rhizoids cause the intestine to become porous, allowing toxins and undigested proteins and carbohydrates to flow through the bowel wall, to be absorbed into the body and the blood stream. This condition is called Leaky Gut Syndrome. The next step in this vicious cycle is that the immune system of the individual makes antibodies (proteins) which attempt to neutralize the candida overgrowth. These antibodies can cause the body to become hypersensitive to certain foods and molds, and can create a wide variety of food allergies. They can also interfere with hormonal activity and cause nutritional deficiencies. What Are the Common Causes of Candida Overgrowth? Repeated antibiotic use is the most common cause of yeast overgrowth. A healthy intestinal bacteria balance suppresses the overgrowth of yeast. When antibiotics destroy this healthy flora, candida is free to proliferate. Birth control pills and cortisone drugs commonly cause candida overgrowth as a side effect. Over-consumption of sugar and refined carbohydrates greatly affects the balance of good flora in the intestinal tract. The lack of good quality food in one’s diet compromises the immune sys
