I have a history of yeast infections (or Candida overgrowth). Are your LifeShield™ Mushrooms and Probiotic Nutrients™ okay to take?
It is a common misconception that individuals with Candida overgrowth need to avoid all fungi-containing foods and supplements. Just as there are beneficial bacteria (i.e. probiotics), there are beneficial fungi known as “fungi perfecti.” These health-promoting fungi do not cause or contribute to overgrowth of “fungi imperfecti.” such as Candida albicans. In fact, many beneficial fungi including Sacharomyces cerevisiae, which we use to create our Probiotic Nutrients, actually produce compounds that inhibit the growth of Candida. And, the mushrooms featured in our line of LifeShield™ Mushrooms supply a rich source of immune-enhancing polysaccharides which support the body’s natural ability to control the growth of Candida and other fungi imperfecti.* Consequently, it would be highly beneficial for anyone concerned about fungal overgrowth to include New Chapter’s Organic Probiotic Nutrients™ in their daily regimen to optimize their defenses against these conditions.
