Nature's Sunshine Caprylic Acid Combination is designed to nutritionally support healthy intestinal flora balance. Although present as a normal component of the intestinal flora, yeasts are an opportunistic fungal pathogen (infectious organism). The overgrowth of yeast is responsible for a variety of health problems, particularly among individuals with weakened immune systems. An imbalance in the intestinal environment can occur from stress, poor diet (high in sugar and refined carbohydrates), certain medications and health conditions. This imbalance may present with digestive complaints such as bloating, discomfort, gas and irregular bowel motions as well as other symptoms.
Caprylic Acid Combination is designed to discourage yeast and support the natural detoxification processes from an overabundance of yeast in the body. Caprylic Acid Combination contains herbs and nutrients that help to support the delicate balance of intestinal flora in the intestinal tract and colon, keeping levels of yeast in check.
Caprylic acid is a natural long-chain fatty acid used for many years to support a healthy balance of the microorganisms that live in the gastrointestinal tract. Each capsule provides 300mg of caprylic acid, Elecampane root, Black Walnut hulls and Red Raspberry leaves.
