opinion on zymex for candida?
Zymex® Capsules
Zymex is used to acidify the gastrointestinal tract, build the beneficial flora in the gut, in kidney detoxification, and in helping a toxic bowel. Because the gut is typically too alkaline in cases of Candida, Zymex is used to help acidify the intestinal tract.
Recent advances in our understanding about the various roles played by yeasts in the body have added to the dimensions of this yeast product. As a healthy friendly intestinal yeast (acidophilus type) it is a natural antagonist to the growth of the Candida Albicans or thrush forming type yeasts found in such infections as vaginitis. ZYMEX is a GI tract friendly yeast that can set up a protective environment that is immune to the CANDIDA type growth. ZYMEX is actually made from a culture that is grown. We take red beets, beet leaves and wheat germ, make a bed out of the mixture, sterilize it and seed it with a certain culture. Then we put the culture under ideal moisture and temperature conditions and let it grow. After about three days, a beautiful gray mold has grown-it looks just like velvet. We dry the mold in a sigmoid dryer and make a powder that is ZYMEX ZYMEX is similar to LACTIC ACID YEAST in that it breaks down carbohydrate in the gastrointestinal tract to produce lactic acid, thereby acidifying the gastrointestinal tract. It's also very effective in detoxifying the colon. ZYMEX combines the functions of LACTIC ACID YEAST and CHOLACOL II. If instead of going through these steps we were to centrifuge the juice off the mold then vacuum dry the juice, we could create ARGINEX ARGINEX detoxifies the kidneys. It's excellent for patients with bladder and kidney infections.*
Opinion on this paragraph?
To me it doesn't make sense when they say zymex is a healthy intestinal yeast and then later on in the paragraph say they grow it into a mold?
Seems like the fungus form would have different properties than the yeast form+ I've never heard of a mold acidifying the GI tract?
Appreciate any feedback on the paragraph. Thanks!
