“Candida Yeast Support”
FAQ
Ver.1.1
OK what part of the body does the product “Candida
Yeast Support” affect?
While it seems to affect all parts of the body it
actually goes to work in the intestinal tract both in the large
and small intestines.
How does it work?
“Candida
Yeast Support” is a product that is made up of live bacteria.
And this live bacteria is put into a deep sleep by dry freezing
it very quickly. It is then put into capsules. As swallow the capsules
they travel of course down your throat, into your stomach and then
into your intestinal tract where the live bacteria “wakes-up”
to go about looking for “bad guys” and bringing them
under control.
“Bad guys”? What do
you mean by that?
Bad fungus… “candida”
or “candida yeast” or “candida albicans”
or just simply “yeast”.
You’re taking live bacteria?
I thought all bacteria were bad?
Not true. This is a big, big misconception.
Not all bacteria are bad. Our intestinal tract is chock-full of
bacteria. Can you believe over 400 different strains consist of
trillions of these little plants? The fact is we need bacteria in
our intestinal tract in order to live. Without these bacteria we
would soon perish.
Without bacteria we would die?
Are you serious?
Dead serious. You see not only do
these live bacteria help us breakdown and digest our food they help
us evacuate waste out of our bodies. Like I said without them we
would soon die.
So where does this candida yeast
fungus come into play?
We have many areas of our body that
contain fungus like the mouth, vaginal area in women and the intestinal
tract. A certain amount of candida yeast is helpful— too much
is a problem.
So let me get this straight—
fungus within our intestinal tracts can become a problem?
That’s precisely what seems
to happen.
Why is it the yeast fungus or candida
yeast fungus seems to grow out of control?
Actually there are other types that
can grow out of control also but due to many variables the yeast
family seems very susceptible to it.
What sort of variables are you talking
about?
There seem to be 5 factors that can
cause candida yeast to grow out of control in the intestinal tract:
- A diet heavy in refined carbohydrates.
- Antibiotics.
- Stress.
- Heredity.
- Skin to skin contact.
So how do refined carbohydrates cause a yeast overgrowth?
Easy, yeast seems to like the “taste”
of refined carbs. And consequently it can cause the yeast to grow
out of control. The fact is the average person eats more than 100
pounds of sugar per year. Yeast seems to love sugar; it’s
as simple as that.
What about antibiotics? I thought antibiotics were
good for us?
They are to a point but the fact is that doctors
now prescribe antibiotics like they were prescribing candy—
everyone gets antibiotics if they need them or not. Obviously for
many thing antibiotics are needed and important. You remember the
old physics law that states that for every action there is an equal
reaction. In other words doing one thing quite often produces results
that may not always be seen or understood. It’s this way with
antibiotics. They are meant to kill unfriendly bacteria or infections
that reside in the body. However antibiotics are indiscriminant
“killers”. They can kill both good and bad bacteria.
And if wholesale killing of good bacteria happens in the intestinal
tract then families of fungus that are normally held in check by
good bacteria can be suddenly “turned free” to reproduce
at an explosive rate. Yeast or candida yeast seem to be one of those
that will expand rapidly if antibiotics cause the death of too many
good bacteria. Check the directions of any antibiotic; diarrhea
is a pretty common malady that is associated with antibiotic use.
You know what’s happening don’t you? The bacteria in
your intestinal tract are thrown out of whack due to the antibiotics,
which causes your waste evacuation system to go haywire. But an
even more serious problem is the potential for causing fungus to
grow out of control contributing to many issues throughout the body.
What is this term “Candida”?
“Candida” is often just another term
used to describe yeast fungus. Quite often when someone says they
have a “candida problem” what they are really saying
is that they have a yeast overgrowth problem. It is also referred
to as “Candida Albicans” or a “Candida Yeast”
overgrowth.
So if I here someone say they have a “candida”
problem they mean they have a yeast overgrowth problem?
That is correct.
But what if they say they have a “systemic
candida problem”?
What this means in some circles is that the candida
yeast have gotten in the blood stream and are causing issues throughout
the body.
You sound uncertain about this?
The challenge is that many in the orthodox medical
community within the western hemisphere don’t believe that
candida yeast is a problem, however many doctors in the Far East
and Europe have concluded that a yeast overgrowth is a big problem.
Some have called it the “epidemic of the 21st century.”
The “epidemic of the 21st century”?
That sounds pretty intense?
It is. And when you see the vast number of issues
that seem to be tied to a potential candida yeast overgrowth you’ll
see why many people believe that upwards of 80% of all Americans
suffer from one extent or another due to this issue.
What sort of issues are we talking about?
- Digestive problems
- Oral thrush (a white “coating” of the tongue, inside
of the mouth and potentially throat)
- Vaginal thrush
- Jock itch
- Skin rashes
- Fatigue
- Clouded thinking
- Nail fungus
- Sinus problems
- Food allergies
- Athletes foot
- Acne
- Joint/muscle pain
That’s a heck of a list! You mean all these
issues are tied to a candida yeast overgrowth?
All the time? No. But over the last decade it has
been found that by controlling the overgrowth of candida yeast in
the intestinal tract that many of these issues are lessened…
many times the issues have disappeared totally. It appears that
even those in the orthodox medical community are slowly coming around
to the idea that having too much yeast or candida yeast in the intestinal
tract can result in many undesirable issues.
So how can an overgrowth of candida yeast in your
intestinal tract lead to these other various issues?
Good question. There seems to be a couple schools
of thought. #1. It appears that many times a candida yeast overgrowth
can contribute to a weakening of the immune system. And as the immune
system weakens it allows some of these other issues to overtake
the body. #2. As the candida yeast “eat” they expel
toxins that flow throughout the body contributing to bad issues.
#3. Candida yeast can infiltrate the blood stream contributing to
issues. But hat being said it seems from dealing with literally
thousands of people that if the candida yeast overgrowth in the
intestinal tract is brought under control that many of these issues
cease to become issues.
Is this a problem that affects men and women equally?
Absolutely! Obviously woman will suffer vaginal yeast
infections and men won’t but men seem to make it up with digestive
problems, jock itch, oral thrush, fatigue and clouded thinking.
Are there any age specifics with this problem?
No, babies can get diaper rash (which many believe
is a candida yeast problem) to oral thrush to digestive problem.
How would babies get a candida yeast overgrowth?
One school of thought is that they can get it by
coming in contact with the candida yeast within the vaginal canal
during childbirth. Others believe it is passed through the blood
and others believe that it is passed due to breast-feeding.
What sort of digestive problems are associated
with a candida yeast overgrowth?
Constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating are all typical
signs of a candida yeast problem. It also seems that acid reflux
and heartburn could also be connected. IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)
is another issue that seems to have some connection to a candida
yeast problem.
Food allergies are connected to a candida yeast
problem?
They seem to be and it makes sense. If you don’t
have the right amount of bacteria in your intestinal tract then
you can’t process certain foods and thus you can become allergic.
How long can a person suffer with a candida yeast
problem?
In many cases people have suffered for decades without
properly addressing or even understanding that they have a candida
yeast problem. The biggest problem in dealing with a candida yeast
overgrowth is recognizing that you have a problem. Again if you
are working with a doctor that doesn’t understand the importance
of proper bacteria health within your intestinal tract you’re
not likely to get the right help. Heck many times people are prescribed
antibiotics, which can make the problem even worse.
Is there any sort of test someone can take to tell
if they have a candida yeast problem?
Yes, there is special test called the “Spit
Test” and you do it like this…
First thing in the morning, before you put ANYTHING
in your mouth, get a clear glass. Fill with water and work up a
bit of saliva, then spit it into the glass of water. Check the water
in about 30 to 45 minutes. If you have a potential problem you will
see strings (like legs) traveling down into the water from the saliva
floating on the top, or “cloudy” saliva will sink to
the bottom of the glass, or cloudy specks will seem to be suspended
in the water. If there are no strings and the saliva is still floating
after one hour, you probably have normal levels of yeast under control.

Is the “Spit Test” accurate?
Even though it may sound “hokey” after
having thousands of people take the test it does seem to be relevant.
Any other tests out there?
Yes, measuring your pH can give some indication if
you have a candida yeast problem. Someone that is more acid (less
than 7.0) is quite often found to be at a higher risk for a candida
yeast overgrowth.
You mention antibiotics as something a doctor
may prescribe for an issue tied to candida yeast, what else my they
suggest and is it effective?
Great question. Many times a doctor will prescribe
some sort of anti-fungal product for a candida yeast overgrowth.
The problem is that like when taking antibiotics, an anti-fungal
can do more long-term harm than it does short-term good. Not too
mention the warning labels for many anti-fungals suggest that long-term
use could result in damage to internal organs like the liver and
kidneys.
Are there any other problems with taking anti-fungals?
Yes, it seems (as reported by many people) that a
specific anti-fungal only seems to work for a limited time. The
candida yeast seems to “mutate” rendering the anti-fungal
ineffective. Then you are forced to take another type of anti-fungal.
Anti-fungals do not seem to be a good solution?
Many experts along with the people that have taken
the anti-fungals would support that view. There are better solutions
that seem to be much safer and not damaging to your other organs—but
the best thing is that the candida yeast doesn’t seem to be
able to “mutate” against his other solution either so
it always seems to be effective.
Isn’t oil of oregano and coconut oil considered
“natural” antifungals?
Yes they are. And while they don’t seem to
have the “kick” that prescription anti-fungals do they
don’t seem to be as effective towards a candida yeast problem
either as a couple other solutions like “Candida Yeast Support”.
In your experience what have you found to be the
best solution for a candida yeast problem?
The best solution we’ve found (and we’ve
dealt with thousands of people) is a very special type of probiotic
like “Candida Yeast Support” that seems to be very aggressive
towards candida yeast.
A special type of probiotic? What is a “probiotic”?
A probiotic is the name given to the live bacteria
that are ingested via a capsule, powder or some other method. There
are literally hundreds of different types of probiotics on the market
today. Some cost as little as a few dollars and some in the hundreds
of dollars.
What’s the difference?
Like I said earlier there are hundreds of different
types of bacteria in your intestinal tract and literally thousands
more that exist on the planet. Some bacteria do one thing and some
do another. Consequently the cost to grow and package one type of
bacteria can be far different than the cost to grow and package
another.
So not all probiotics are the same?
Absolutely not!
So will just any probiotic help with a candida
yeast overgrowth?
A person can get a little relief (sometimes) with
a basic probiotic but it has been found that most probiotics for
one reason or another don’t seem to be very effective towards
a candida yeast problem.
Why is that?
There are a number of reasons. First off some strains
of bacteria are aggressive towards candida yeast while most are
not.
You mean some basically “kill” the
candida yeast?
Some use the word “kill” some use the
word “control” but the fact is that some bacteria do
seem to be more aggressive towards candida yeast than others. We
know of thousands of people that have tried to control their candida
yeast problem with an “off-the-shelf” probiotic that
one would find at a health food store or dietary supplement retail
business and have had no luck what so ever— even after spending
months and months taking these probiotics.
So in your opinion why aren’t most probiotics
useful against candida yeast?
Well look at it from this point of view… Remember
that you have (under optimum conditions) literally hundreds of different
strains of bacteria in your intestinal tract numbering in the trillions.
So how much help do you think taking a capsule filled with 5 or
8 or 12 different strain of bacteria that number only a few billion
will be to you? The answer is when it comes to a candida yeast problem
not much.
But in “Candida Yeast Support” you
only have 3 strain of bacteria numbering less than 300 million and
you say that it’s more effective than other probiotics that
number in the billions— how is that possible?
Like I said before… The lab that originally
cultured these bacteria that are found in “Candida Yeast Support”
discovered they were very aggressive towards candida yeast—
much more so than most bacteria found in virtually any other product
on the market. It’s like this if you hired two groups of cleaners
to come in to clean your house and the first group consisted of
just 3 people while the second group consisted of 12 people. The
group of 3 come in and immediately gets to work, cleaning your house
from top to bottom. The group of 12 come in and sits around in your
living room and watch TV.
Which group would you want to clean your house?
OK, point well made. So it’s not how many strain
of bacteria or how many total bacteria are in a probiotic but what
type of bacteria they are that’s important when it comes to
helping control a candida yeast problem. So I can’t assume
that all probiotics are the same?
Correct. Most probiotics have not been found to be
anywhere near as effective for literally thousands of our customers
as the bacteria found in “Candida Yeast Support”.
Other than anti-fungals and probiotics what other
method do people try when attempting to get their candida yeast
problem under control?
Diet is quite often the first thing people try and
in some cases it seems to work temporarily but the strictness of
most “candida” or “yeast” diets keeps people
from being able to stick to them for any length of time.
Are these diets that strict?
Yes, they ask you to not eat virtually anything other
than green vegetables, chicken and fish. All grains are eliminated,
all dairy is eliminated, all fruits are eliminated along with several
cuts of meat. Make no mistake candida or yeast diets are brutal.
I haven’t known a single person that has been able to stick
to it for any length of time. And in many cases it doesn’t
seem to change much of anything.
What do you mean it doesn’t change “much
of anything”?
Like I said before quite often a candida yeast problem
seems to be traced to one’s heredity or metabolism so the
diet doesn’t have much affect.
What is the term “prebiotic” and how
does that figure into all this good bacteria and candida talk?
“Prebiotics” are a type of dietary supplement
that “feed” the good bacteria within your intestinal
tract. Prebiotics work as sort of a “fertilizer” for
the microscopic bacteria plants. The good bacteria feed and reproduce.
This in itself is a very good thing because the growth of good bacteria
helps keep the bad bacteria in check. It’s sorta like feeding
your lawn a proper fertilizer so that the grass continues to grow
and keep the weeds crowded out.
You sound very positive when it comes to “Prebiotics”?
Yes I am. Quite frankly for just maintaining intestinal
health without having a candida yeast concern I believe a prebiotic
is better for you than a regular probiotic.
And what are “Synbiotics”?
Synbiotics are combination probiotics and prebiotics
in a single capsule. In other words you’re adding good bacteria
to your system and you’re getting the “fertilizer”
to help your existing good bacteria grow too. Sort of a “double-edged
sword”. “Candida Yeast Support” is a “synbiotic”—
it is both a probiotic and a prebiotic in a single capsule. It’s
another good reason why this product seems to be so effective when
it comes to a candida yeast problem.
So how do the ingredients in “Candida Yeast
Support” compare to any other product on the market?
There is only one other product on the market that
has ingredients similar to “Candida Yeast Support” and
that product does not have as much good bacteria as this product
nor does it come in an enterocoated capsule— and this competing
product costs 20% more than “Candida Yeast Support”,
which regularly sells for $39.95.
What is an “enterocoated” capsule and
is it a good thing?
Enterocoated capsules are very special capsules that
aren’t destroyed by the acids of the stomach. It’s like
this if you were to put a live bacteria in a regular capsule they
would stand a much greater chance of being destroyed by the acids
of the stomach. The key is getting as many live bacteria into your
intestinal tract as possible. As a side note most probiotics on
the market aren’t packed into enterocoated capsules so it’s
questionable how many live bacteria are even reaching the intestinal
tract. I wouldn’t consider taking any probiotic that isn’t
packed in a way that keeps the bacteria somewhat safe from the acids
of the stomach. Dead bacteria just won’t benefit you.
Can you recap for me briefly the different ways
that someone can attempt to control their candida yeast problem?
Again let me remind you that we have experience in
dealing with thousands of people when it comes to candida yeast
problems and finding relief.
- Antifungals— Either those
prescribed by doctors or those found in an alternative health
food store. They can kill both good & bad bacteria. They can
leave your intestinal tract “barren” so the bad bacteria
can regrow and repopulate even more fiercely than before. Antifungals
are also hard on your other organs. Candida yeast seems to be
able to mutate rendering the antifungal ineffective after a time.
- Regular probiotics— They
attempt to repopulate the intestinal tract but they seem to be
too few in number to make any sort of a difference. Most bacteria
that come in probiotics don’t seem to be aggressive towards
candida yeast either. Plus most bacteria found in probiotics aren’t
protected through enterocoating so the acids of the stomach more
easily destroy the live bacteria.
- Diet— Basically your diet
is limited to green vegetables along with chicken and fish. This
is designed to stop the candida yeast from being “fed”.
The problem is that a diet this strict just cannot be maintained
for any length of time. It’s too hard. Plus in many cases
it has been found to be only slightly effective or not effective
period.
- A “synbiotic” like Candida
Yeast Support— Let’s look at why this product
category seems to be successful:
- It is made up of strains of bacteria that seem to be highly
aggressive towards candida yeast. The bacteria don’t just
“sit” in your intestinal tract and not do anything.
- A “bacteria fertilizer” known as a prebiotic is
combined with the live bacteria packed in the capsule, with the
expressed purpose of “feeding” the good bacteria that
already exists in your intestinal tract causing it to grow and
reproduce which in turn helps crowd out the “bad guys”.
- The capsule used is enterocoated, which allows the bacteria
to pass through the acids much more safely to reach the intestinal
tract intact. Dead bacteria aren’t going to do anyone any
good!
How long does it take for someone to get their
candida yeast issues under control using something like Candida
Yeast Support?
Typically it seems to take between one and six months.
Some issues like nail fungus have been reported to take longer.
How many capsules are in Candida Yeast Support
and what is the recommended dosage?
There are 60 capsules per bottle. A maintenance amount
is one capsule per day. For someone just starting a more aggressive
program would be two to as many as four capsules per day for the
first 30 to 60 days.
And what is the cost of Candida Yeast Support?
You can find it on sale on this site for $39.95.
The suggested retail price is $49.95.
Does it come with any sort of money back guarantee?
Yes it has a 90-day money back guarantee.
