Candida Support is a combination of herbal ingredients (Pau D'Arco, Black Walnut and Oregano Oil), Biotin (a B-complex vitamin) and Caprylic Acid (a naturally occurring fatty acid derived from plant oils). These synergistic ingredients help to support a healthy balance of intestinal bacteria. The beneficial bacteria that normally populate the gut assist in the digestion of food, produce certain vitamins and promote detoxification processes.
Fungal infections are estimated to occur in over a billion people each year, and evidence suggests the rate is increasing. Candida is the organism responsible for most fungal infections, and there are factors allow it to grow unabated. Two main factors are the increased use of antibiotics, and a weakened immune system. Fungal infections can range in severity from a simple skin infection, to the more problematic systemic infection.
Pau d'Arco helps to strengthen the body's immune system, especially a weakened immune system due to one of many factors such as chronic fatigue syndome, fibromyalgia, and candida.
Oregano oil contains strong immune-enhancing and antioxidant properties and supports the respiratory system. It's also used for GI problems, as oil of oregano has anti-fungal or antiviral properties. It has anti-fungal properties, and some studies have shown that in lab cultures, oregano oil puts up a strong fight against Candida albicans, the bacteria that causes the fungal infection candida.
