Counteract Candida Symptoms with Yeast-A-TAK™, with Caprylic Acid Overgrowth of Candida albicans is a major health challenge for many people, especially women. Although it is a normal inhabitant of the human digestive tract, this member of the yeast family of fungi looks for just the right conditions to grow and become a ‘persistent pathogen.’ If left untreated candida overgrowth can cause unpleasant symptoms and health deterioration. In healthy people, intestinal microfloras are balanced and provide nutritional benefits to the host. This balance depends primarily on diet and can easily be disturbed by use of antibiotics, which suppress normal intestinal bacteria, promote yeast overgrowth and suppress immunity. Other pharmaceuticals, compromised immunity and a high-sugar diet can also contribute to Candida overgrowth. Yeast-A-TAK™, with Caprylic Acid from webber naturals® is a potent synergistic and comprehensive combination of Caprylic Acid, Indian Barberry, Oregano Oil, Anise Extract and Caraway Extract, all natural compounds known to have anti-yeast and anti-fungal properties.Yeast-A-TAK™, with Caprylic Acid is carefully formulated and specifically designed to help restore intestinal flora balance and counteract Candida and its symptoms. Potent anti-microbial and fungus-fighting herbs and nutrients: Caprylic Acid: found in foods such as coconut milk and milk fat. It helps maintain normal intestinal flora. Studies report that caprylic acid helps inhibit growth of Candida albicans and other opportunistic fungi in the intestines [1]. Caprylic acid does not seem to adversely affect growth of beneficial intestinal microflora and has an excellent safety record with no reports of contraindications with medications. Barberry: used in traditional medicine as an anti-microbial. Its primary constituent, berberine, provides anti-fungal action against Candida albicans and other fungal species [2]. Oregano oil: shown to damage the surface of yeast cells [3]. Constituents of oregano oil such as carvacrol have also been studied individually for their anti-candidal action. Carvacrol at 0.033% was able to stop growth of Candida cells and at 0.1% killed 100% of Candida cells [4]. Anise: used in traditional medicine for its antibacterial activity. In vitro, its essential oil, at concentrations less than 500 ppm, was able to completely inhibit several fungal species [5]. 1. Neuhauser I.
