Aquaflora products are specialized homeopathic formulas designed to relieve symptoms of Candida overgrowth and restore digestive probiotics and enzymes. The name Aquaflora refers both to water (aqua) and the collection of beneficial bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms (flora) that normally occur in our bodies and keep Candida albicans under control.
Candida albicans is a yeast-like fungus that normally inhabits the gut, nasal and oral cavities. When it’s in balance, it doesn’t cause problems. When out of balance, it can negatively impact the health of men, women and children. Candida symptoms can manifest in a variety of ways, including acne, nail or skin fungus, fatigue, bloating, cravings and yeast infections.
A healthy immune system usually keeps Candida symptoms in check, but many commonplace life-style choices trigger Candida frenzy. Researchers familiar with the problem of Candida overgrowth point to causative factors such as stress, poor diet (especially those high in simple sugars and refined carbohydrates), steroids, heavy metal toxicity, birth control pills and the extended use of antibiotics.
Antibiotics stimulate candida overgrowth because they kill bacteria, including the good stuff that keeps your body in balance and helps fight off illness. Imagine it this way: the Candida police (good bacteria) are knocked out by antibiotics, so the Candida symptoms (bad bacteria) have a party, multiplying and acting crazy.
For many people with yeast overgrowth or other Candida symptoms, the balance can be regained. Aquaflora offers a safe, natural homeopathic approach to restoring optimal health and putting you back in control.
