Intestinal candida infection

Micronutrient therapy

Strengthens of the immune defense with medicinal mushrooms
The fungus Coriolus versicolor has activating effects on lymphocytes, leukocytes and natural killer cells. In East Asia Coriolus is traditionally used against bacterial and viral diseases as well as yeast infections (e.g. candida, herpes or flu infections).

The Shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) contains Lentinian, the bioactive beta-glucan fraction, which is considered to be an efficient stimulator of the immune system. It improves the release of immunoglobulin IgA on mucosal surfaces, increases the formation of monocyte-specific T cells and intensifies the cytotoxic effect of macrophages against bacteria and viruses. Shiitake extract also enables an increase in the intestine-associated immune defense.
Antifungal plant extracts

Rosemary has good antifungal and antimicrobial effects against a variety of microorganisms.  
Grapefruit seed extract contains polyphenols and flavonoids, which destroy the bacterial membranes and thereby promote cytoplasm leakage.  
Barberry extract contains berberine which demonstrates a significant antimicrobial efficacy against a variety of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, chlamydia and helminths.  
Pomegranate extract shows antiseptic and antimicrobial properties based on the activity of phenolic ellagic acid.  
Lavender essential oils provide a mixture of active substances which impact Candida albicans and gram-positive bacteria.  
Thyme extract is characterized by its high thymol content, which has a strong antiseptic and antibacterial effect.  
Oregano shows a high antimicrobial effect against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and yeasts. In particular, the ingredients carvacrol and thymol show strong effects. 
Supports intestinal flora
The support of the intestinal flora is especially important for fungal infections. Probiotic bacterial strains can reduce the foreign colonization of the intestinal mucosa with pathogenic germs and limit their growth.
