Can TruFlora™ inhibit Candida?
Third party laboratory tests show that TruFlora™ inhibits the growth of Candida. When Candida yeast species are inoculated on a Petri dish along with TruFlora™, Candida growth is inhibited. How well this works in vivo depends on whether combination therapies such as dietary restrictions (no sugar) and supplemental anti-fungal compounds are used. Consult a naturopathic doctor or health care professional for advice on the best integrated therapies. TruFlora™ inhibits Candida in two ways: • Its cell-wall digesting enzymes break down betaglucans, the primary structural carbohydrates in Candida. Unlike other enzyme products that claim to do this, TruFlora™ does it best by utilizing the enzymes BETAGLUCANASE and HEMICELLULASE. • Its three probiotic strains rapidly produce lactic acid in the ingesta (food undergoing digestion) as it moves through the small intestine; lactic acid inhibits Candida growth.
