Validation of Ingredients
CALCIUM ASCORBATE (non-acidic form of Vitamin C) is a water-soluble vitamin easily absorbed in the intestine, and forms a protective barrier between infections and the surrounding healthy tissues.1
Candida albicans and other fungal bacteria thrive and multiply when the body is under stress or trauma. Vitamin C is important in the formation of the stress hormones produced in the adrenal glands.2
Calcium ascorbate further stimulates the immune system to attack abnormal cells and prevent destruction of the DNA..3
CHAMOMILE FLOWERS (ANTHERMIS NOBILIS) possess definite and proven antibacterial properties.4
Chamomile contains the essential oil bisabolol which exhibits fungicide activity even at low concentrations.5
Additionally, the Chamomile in Bactrol-C has been standardized to 1% Apigenin which clinical studies have shown to possess anti-tumor properties which protect the colon.6
Chamomile is also a time-tested herb with calming and anti-inflammatory actions.7
DRIED AQUEOUS SAGE LEAF (STANDARDIZED EXTRACT) is a powerful antimicrobial known to kill fungi, including candida and other microbes such as salmonella. It is also sedating and soothing and has a tonic effect on the nerves.8
Sage leaf has been approved by The German Commission E for indigestion, lack of appetite, oral inflammation, rhinitis, and sore throat.
N-ACETYL CYSTEINE (NAC) is a potent antioxidant and detoxifier and provides the body with vital Cysteine which is the most essential nutrient for the formation of glutathione, the body's master detoxifying chemical.9
With regards to "leaky gut syndrome" NAC detoxifies the toxins produced by intestinal yeast/fungal overgrowth and stimulates immune function in the gut lining. This detoxifying action also helps beneficial bacteria (probiotic flora) to establish themselves in the gut.10
Research has shown that oxidation may play an important role in increased intestinal permeability and that NAC can prevent this damage due to its being a powerful anti-oxidant.11
Supplementation with NAC has been shown to reduce the proliferation of certain cells lining the colon and may reduce the risk of colon cancer in people with recurrent polyps in the colon.12
ACTIVE HOROPITO (PSEUDOWINTERA COLORATA) is a prehistoric shrub native to New Zealand and virtually unchanged for more than 65 million years.
Forest Herbs Research, Ltd. has patented Active Horopito and is the sole source and supplier of this anti-fungal herb.
The active constituent of Horopito leaf is polygodial which has been shown to exhibit potent fungicidal activity against yeasts and filamentous fungi.13
Scientists discovered that polygodial was able to suppress the growth of candida fungi more rapidly and effectively than the prescription anti-fungal treatment Amphoteracin B.14
Polygodial exhibits fungicidal activity similar to the actions of some of the fungistatic triazoles, such as fluconazole, but without side effects.15
ANISE SEED (PIMPINELLA ANISUM) has always been of great value when taken internally in the treatment of asthma, coughs and pectoral afflictions as well as digestive disorders such as gas, bloating, colic, nausea and indigestion.16
In addition to its historical uses, researchers at the University of California discovered that when anethole - the major active compound in anise seed - was combined with polygodial, it increased the activity against pathogenic candida 32-fold.17
