Bacillus coagulans is a beneficial bacteria, also referred to as a probiotic (living micro-organisms that provide health benefits for people who take them). A variety of studies demonstrate the benefits it holds for improving vaginal flora. What sets Bacillus coagulans apart is that it contains a natural 'protective shield', which enables it to survive the manufacturing process, as well as, various acids in the stomach.

Enterococcus faecium is a lactic acid producing, spherical, gram-positive bacterium, able to resist gastric acid. When taken orally, the bacteria travels to the small intestine where it works to balance the area's pH. In an acidic environment it reproduces itself rapidly which in turn forces other, harmful bacteria out creating an organic method to fight yeast infections allowing helpful flora that live in the intestine to flourish.

Bifidobacterium longum has a high tolerance for gastric acid and bile, and can survive well in the gastrointestinal tract to colonize easily and quickly. It represents a large proportion of the bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract and is an important organism involved in the maintenance and support of it. Bifidobacteria longum is a form of bacteria called lactic acid bacteria which is found in fermented or cultured foods like yogurt and cheese and is considered good or friendly bacteria. Our body relies on good bacteria to support a multitude of certain bodily functions including regulating the immune system as well as provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Lactobacillus acidophilus is a naturally occurring substance in the human body found in the gastrointestinal system, the mouth and is a normal part of the vaginal microbiota. L. acidophilus produces acid which may help control the growth of the fungus Candida albicans, therefore reducing the chances of vaginal yeast infections. Although present naturally, it can be added when enough is not produced. Certain antibiotics, spermicides and contraceptive creams may destroy the natural L. acidophilus in the vagina, which leads to yeast infections, as such, supplementation is key in fighting such infections.

Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) can be extracted from fruits and vegetables such as bananas, asparagus and Jerusalem artichoke. FOS serves as a substrate for microflora in the large intestine, increasing the overall gastrointestinal tract health. May studies have been undertaken on FOS and found to be beneficial as an effective treatment for yeast infections. Some studies have documented that fructo-oligosaccharides, combined with inulin, promote the absorption of calcium in the gut which can nal microflora present in the lower gut can ferment FOS, which subsequently reduces the pH balance.

Undecylenic acid is produced by the cracking of castor oil under pressure and has been found to contain effective antifungal properties. It is a common ingredient used to treat fungal skin infections and has been shown to combat and inhibit the development of Candida albicans. Undecylenic acid is an effective antifungal agent to promote and maintain a healthy balance of intestinal and vaginal flora.

Vitamin C, or L-ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient for humans and provides highly effective antioxidant properties. Vitamin C is thought to combat yeast infections in several ways by providing support for both the adrenal glands and the immune system to assist in regulating metabolism and blood sugar. Moreover, it boosts stomach acid to slow down the growth of candida and yeast infections.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) is a water-soluble B vitamin considered essential in the treatment of candida and yeast infections. An over-production of candida can also lead to thiamine deficiency as yeast uses thiamine in the first step of alcohol fermentation. Furthermore, certain bacteria known to live in the human small intestine and colon are known to produce enzymes that degrade thiamine in the digestive tract, which could become problematic if they overgrow. Deficiencies make the body susceptible to yeast infections and candida, therefore supplementation is important.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) There are certain infections that suggest a Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) deficiency may lead to candida overgrowth and yeast infections. Riboflavin is continuously excreted in the urine of healthy individuals making deficiency relatively common when dietary intake is insufficient.

Vitamin B6 is a water-soluble vitamin that exists in three forms collectively known as pyridoxine. In addition to being a potent antioxidant, it's important for protein metabolism, growth, and the systems of nervous, endocrine and immunity. Deficiencies of B6 are relatively common with symptoms ranging from anemia, dermatitis, depression and convulsions. Adequate levels of Vitamin B6 help keep candida within its less invasive form and reduce the risk of fungal growth.

Get The Facts About Yeast Infections

Yeast infections occur when the fungi that lives regularly within our body starts to multiply and grow out of control. Usually not serious in nature, they present with often very uncomfortable and painful symptoms, often reoccurring very frequently within many sufferers. The good news is that they can be treated. Although not exclusively limited to women, they are more common within the female population, with most, at some point in their life, experiencing a vaginal yeast infection. However, both men and children can also be affected and susceptibility appears to be related to a range of causes from immune system impairment to certain diseases increasing the risk, antibiotics or simply being from the wrong gene pool. Whatever the cause, without doubt the symptoms that yeast infections bring can be challenging to say the least.

What is a Yeast Infection?

Approximately 75-80% percent of all women are likely to have at least one yeast infection during their lifetime. And up to 45% have two or more episodes. But it is not uncommon in men or children as well. Yeast is scientifically referred to as Candida albicans, and it is a naturally-occurring bacterium in the digestive tract and reproductive system of humans. In certain instances, the yeast bacteria grow out of control and lead to infection. This can occur in the vaginal or groin area, as well as other parts of the body.

What are the symptoms of a Vaginal Yeast Infections?

Symptoms vary between individuals and each may display different levels of severity during a yeast infection, which also may differ in length and frequency. There are many symptoms of vaginal yeast infections, the majority of which can be confused with other ailments. As such, it is essential that people suffering from these symptoms see a physician for a confirmed diagnosis before beginning self-treatment, particularly if this is the first experience with yeast infection symptoms. The symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection are as follows:

• Vaginal itching, pain or burning
• Burning with urination
• Thick, white vaginal discharge that may resemble cottage cheese
• Skin irritation in the vaginal region
• Crusting or hardening of the vaginal region
• Discomfort when having sexual intercourse

What Causes Yeast Infections?

Yeast infections can be caused by a variety of factors. One of the main triggers of infections is the use of antibiotics. This is because antibiotics destroy healthy bacteria as well as harmful bacteria. The healthy bacteria are meant to control the growth of yeast, but if the healthy bacteria are killed, there is nothing to stop the overgrowth of yeast.

Steroids, like prednisone, can also be responsible for causing yeast infections. This is because hormones such as progesterone and estrogen stimulate the production of sugar in the cells, which then leads to the growth of candida or yeast. People who have suppressed immune systems are more likely to experience yeast infections because there are fewer healthy bacteria to fight the overgrowth of yeast. People who have AIDS or other autoimmune system diseases and people who are undergoing treatment for cancer also have an increased risk of yeast infections.

When Should I See a Doctor?

There are several circumstances which would warrant a visit to your doctor, which include the following:

• This is your first experience with yeast infection symptoms
• You are pregnant
• You have been diagnosed with diabetes
• You are under the age of 12
• You are dealing with a sexually transmitted disease
• You have had three or more infections in the past 6 months
• You have attempted to self-treat with no improvement in symptoms after a full course of treatment
• Your yeast infection recurs within 60 days

Why are Yeast Infections More Common in Pregnant Women?

Women in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy are more susceptible to yeast infections because of the increase in hormone fluctuations. This makes the environment in the vagina more conducive to the growth of yeast. Pregnant women also produce more sugar, which is what yeast feeds upon, which then leads it to grow unchecked.

It is necessary to treat a yeast infection in a pregnant woman since it can be transferred to the baby when it is born. A yeast infection in an infant usually presents itself as oral thrush (white patches on the tongue and throat) or as a skin rash.

How Can Yeast Infections Be Prevented?

In most cases, preventing a yeast infection is better than trying to cure one. The following minor lifestyle changes can help keep you from getting yeast infections:

• Wear only cotton underwear. Synthetic materials and tight clothing make the vaginal area damp, which is the preferred environment for the growth of yeast. Make sure your clothes allow room for the air to move throughout your vaginal area.
• Do not douche. Douching washes away all bacteria, including the healthy bacteria that keep the yeast in check.
• Do not use bubble baths or other harsh cleansers. This can cause irritation in the vaginal region that will allow yeast to grow.
• Some feminine hygiene products can irritate the vaginal region which can allow yeast to grow out of control.
• Some contraceptives or spermicides can trigger yeast infections.
• Keep the use of antibiotics to a minimum because they destroy both the healthy and the harmful bacteria in the body. This will allow yeast to grow unchecked.
• Damage to the vaginal region can contribute to the overgrowth of yeast
• Eat foods that are known to promote a healthy environment that keeps yeast in control. Foods like garlic, cranberry juice, and yogurt that contains probiotics can help.

Can Men Get Yeast Infections?

While yeast infections are more common in women than in men, males can get them. The symptoms of a male yeast infection include penile itching, penile redness or swelling, pain when urinating, the presence of a white, cheesy substance around the tip of the penis or in the folds of the foreskin, and difficulty with retraction of the foreskin over the tip of the penis. It is recommended that men who believe they are suffering from a yeast infection seek immediate medical treatment to rule out any other sexually transmitted disease.

By combining these ingredients, YeastClear™ has been able to create a 'total care' relieve and prevent yeast infection solution that works faster and is more effective than any other product on the market.

What are probiotics?
Essentially, probiotics are the opposite of antibiotics. They are live bacteria supplements that are necessary to keep the proper balance of harmful and healthy bacteria in the body. They can help protect the body from pathogens, stimulate the production of essential hormones and vitamins, and help keep the immune system strong. The most prevalent probiotics used in foods and supplements are lactobacillus and bifidobacteria, which serve to turn sugar into lactic acid. This, in turn, lowers the pH levels in the colon and keeps the yeast bacteria from overgrowing.

Can YeastClear™ be used to prevent symptoms from occurring?
Yes, many people use YeastClear™ to prevent the onslaught of symptoms from occurring. Since YeastClear™ is made of all natural ingredients, it is safe for long term use.

How often do I take YeastClear™ ?
The recommended dose in the beginning is one capsule in the morning and one in the evening. After one month, increase to one capsule in the morning, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. For long term use, it is recommended to take three each day. It is best to discontinue eating or using sugar. Yeast grows and multiplies in high sugar environments. You will also find that YeastClear™ will have very positive results on any digestive issues you may have.

I am suffering now, how quickly will YeastClear™ work?
While each person is different, you should see positive results in a few days. You will notice the improved digestive functioning right away as well. Some people will take longer to get the maximum effect. The use of high grade probiotics has been proven to get the candida under control as it works to improve our normal body functioning.
