Candida Support Special

Made for your daily routine.

The formula centers on coconut-derived caprylic acid, with garlic concentrate specified to contain 5% allicin. Oregano, olive leaf, pau d'arco, walnut, licorice, fennel, and wormwood add different botanical compounds to the blend.

Follow the defined schedule: four capsules daily for 14 consecutive days, followed by a break of about 20 days. The 120-capsule bottle provides 30 daily servings, slightly more than two 14-day courses. The pullulan capsule and vegan formula contain no gelatin.

Candida Support Special

Why do these ingredients matter?

The gut microbiota is influenced by many factors. This blend combines chemically different ingredients: caprylic acid, garlic-derived allicin, and compounds from oregano, olive leaf, and other botanicals. It provides a defined serving for intermittent use according to the label; it is not a treatment for a diagnosed infection.

Candida Support Special

What research informs Candida Support Special?

Laboratory studies have explored caprylic acid's effects on Candida albicans adhesion, biofilms, and filament formation. Allicin, oregano preparations, and olive leaf extracts have also been studied for activity against yeasts in laboratory settings. These findings informed the ingredient selection but do not show that the finished supplement treats candidiasis in people.
