MegaMycoBalance is formulated with undecylenic acid and bee propolis to support healthy yeast and fungal balance in the body.
MegaMycoBalance™ by Microbiome Labs is formulated with undecylenic acid and bee propolis to support healthy yeast and fungal balance in the body. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found a direct correlation between vaginal yeast infections and the simultaneous overgrowth of Candida in the digestive tract.1 As a result, MegaMycoBalance can support a healthy balance of vaginal flora by restoring balance to the intestinal flora.**
Undecylenic acid is an organic fatty acid derived from castor bean oil that supports a healthy balance of yeast in the gut.6-8 Pathogenic and opportunistic yeasts, like Candida albicans, spread quickly through the intestines by creating tiny roots, or hyphae, that can become deeply embedded in the intestinal wall. This embedment of hyphae makes it very difficult to control yeast overgrowth in the body. MegaMycoBalance can help support a healthy yeast balance in the gut by targeting these roots.**
Bee propolis is a waxy, resinous material that bees use to line their hives in order to protect against bacteria and fungi. Propolis has been found to have inhibitory activity against many fungal species, including Candida albicans, C. krusei, C. glabrata, C. tropicalis, and Trichosporon species.2 Its antimycotic effects may be largely due to the flavonoids pinocembrin, galangin, and pinobanksin that appear to limit fungal cell division and break down fungal cell walls.3
Candida albicans is a yeast that occurs naturally in the human mouth and intestines. In small amounts, this natural fungus can aid in nutrient digestion and absorption, but an overgrowth can damage the intestinal lining and release toxic byproducts directly into the circulatory system. If not addressed quickly, Candida overgrowth can become chronic and lead to fungal skin issues, fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, and even seasonal allergies. However, the most damaging aspect of a Candida overgrowth is the fact that it can puncture holes through the intestinal lining.9
MegaMycoBalanceTM in conjunction with MegaSporeBioticTM can help RECONDITION the gut and promote healthy yeast balance within the microbiome.**
Ages 8+: Start by taking 1 softgel daily with or without a meal for one week. If tolerated, increase by one softgel each week to reach the full dose of 2 softgels 2-3 times daily. Children under 8 years of age, please consult with your healthcare practitioner.
