CANDIDA Complex

Fungal infections - annoying, but unfortunately widespread

Fungal infections are simply annoying at first. However, once they reach a chronic stage, their unpleasant symptoms increasingly dominate the lives of those affected.

The whole body can be affected by fungal infections

Statistically speaking, three out of four women will suffer from an intimate fungal infection at some point in their lives.

Intestinal fungi are found in an even larger proportion of the population.

Yeast infections mainly occur on the oral mucosa, in the gastrointestinal tract and in the female vagina. The partner can also contract a yeast infection during sexual intercourse. The vitamin biotin can be helpful here - it helps to maintain mucous membranes*.

Yeast infections have many causes

The infection of humans with yeast fungi is called "candidiasis" in Latin. Fungal infestation is a very common human infection that occurs primarily on the mucous membranes. The moist environment provides the ideal breeding ground for fungi. There are various causes for the occurrence of yeast infections and various factors come together that favor these yeast infections. These include weaknesses in the immune system and an altered hormone balance.

Infections with "Candida albicans" are common

The fungus most frequently responsible for fungal infections is "Candida albicans". This yeast fungus is basically everywhere and is also naturally native to our bodies. Things only become unnatural when this fungus suddenly spreads uncontrollably. However, it can only do this if the intestinal flora is out of balance. Useful microorganisms can suddenly perish - e.g. as a result of taking antibiotics. However, there are also numerous other causes for this.

The most common symptoms of an infection with "Candida albicans" are

The branded raw material ^Lynside® PRO SCB can help

^LYNSIDE® PRO SCB is a probiotic yeast that is well documented in scientific studies. The strain used by "Lesaffre Human Care", "Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii", contributes to intestinal comfort and the maintenance of intestinal flora. This yeast is the most documented probiotic yeast on the market and shows positive scientific results in terms of digestive health. It can help maintain or restore a balanced gastrointestinal flora.

Good yeast versus bad yeast

Good yeast - such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii - offers health benefits, including the ability to fight bad yeast.

Whereas bad yeast - such as the yeast fungus "Candida albicans" - can be responsible for both superficial and life-threatening fungal infections.

The strain of "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" patented by "Lesaffre Human Care" has been shown to have a positive impact in the treatment of Candida albicans outbreaks**.

Probiotic yeasts can also be a safe and natural way for people of all ages to maintain or restore a balanced gastrointestinal flora for optimal gut comfort.

Good gut flora = good immune system

What many people don't know: Healthy gut flora is a prerequisite for a good immune system! Maintaining a balanced gastrointestinal flora is important to stay healthy, not only from a digestive point of view, but also because the gut-associated lymphatic tissue makes up almost 70% of the entire immune system.

Digestive disorders ...

... can have a significant impact on people's quality of life. Ingredients such as ^LYNSIDE® PRO SCB have been clinically tested to relieve various intestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, discomfort, etc.

Access to effective and natural solutions such as live yeasts is also important for intimate daily support for women.

THE TEST: Are you affected by excessive Candida infestation?

Of course, only a doctor can give a 100% reliable answer to this question, but there is a very simple test that you can do yourself at home - and which can give you an initial indication of whether you might be affected:

Here's how:

Immediately after getting up, fill a glass with still water (at room temperature). Now spit into the glass and observe what happens over the next hour.

The following can happen:

The evaluation of the test:

The thicker and faster the threads are and the faster the saliva sinks to the bottom of the glass, the more fungi are (presumably) in your saliva.

If no threads appear and the saliva is still floating on the surface of the water after an hour, you probably don't have a fungal infection.

The other natural ingredients of CANDIDA Complex:

Biotin - the vitamin for maintaining the mucous membranes

The best protection against unwanted intruders is still the natural mucous membranes in the digestive tract. The surface area of the intestinal mucosa alone is up to 400 square meters - an area of 20 x 20 meters. For our body, this means a great deal of effort to maintain the natural balance - and thus the protective function - of the mucous membranes.

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, ensures this. Its task is to help maintain the natural mucous membranes*.

MCT oil with caprylic acid

The so-called "MCT oil" occurs naturally in coconut oil. It consists mainly of caprylic acid, which cannot be produced by our body. Caprylic acid is also used, among other things, because it has antifungal properties and can therefore help with Candida albicans.

CANDIDA Complex from Botanicy is a purely natural dietary supplement to normalize intestinal comfort and digestion. Studies have shown that the various ingredients can help with an imbalance of the intestinal flora, especially with a high incidence of "Candida albicans". The immune system can also be strengthened*, as a healthy gut is a prerequisite for a healthy immune system - and vice versa, a normally functioning immune system can support the gut.
