Description
After
working closely with doctors and with the guidance of the
late Dr. William Crook, an expert in yeast issues, Kirkman
has developed "Yeast Aid". It is intended that
this product be used only upon the recommendation of a physician
to support the immune system and to aid in keeping healthy
yeast levels in the body.
Kirkman's Yeast Aid is offered in the hypoallergenic line
as #1 plant cellulose capsules. The capsule should be swallowed
whole, not emptied out as powder. The reason for this is
that these ingredients have a very strong bitter taste and
can not be masked without using sweeteners and flavors which
are not acceptable for the hypoallergenic line. For those
individuals who can not swallow the capsules whole, we recommend
the flavored powder version of Yeast Aid.

Ingredient
descriptions:
Olive
Leaf Extract from olive trees contains a compound called
"Oleuropein". This compound has powerful properties.
The olive leaf used in Kirkman's Yeast Control is a standardized
extract containing 6% Oleuropein.
Pau
d'Arco is an herb which contains the compounds "lapachol"
and"beta-lapachone". We use a standardizded extract
containing concentrates of these two compounds.
Goldenseal
Extract has been used for supporting immunity for a
long time. Its high concentrations of active alkaloids including
berberine, hydrastine and candidine are what makes it effective.
Kirkman uses a standardized extract of Goldenseal guaranteeing
the concentrations of the active alkaloids.
Caprylic
Acid is an anti-fungal. Kirkman uses a stabilized form,
calcium caprylate, to ensure gradual release throughout
the intestinal tract.
Biotin
is a B Vitamin which when ingested can keep yeast from being
converted to the fungal state.
Vitamin
C is present in Yeast Aid because it supports the immune
system.
Cranberry
Extract is a special concentrated, patented form of
cranberry prepared by a resin based process which yields
a concentration of active constituents far more concentrated
than other cranberry products. In vitro studies indicate
yeast does not like the active constituents in Cranberry
extract.
Oregano
is an herb of the mint family. An article in the Journal
for Applied Nutrition in 1995 (47:96-101) presented scientific
studies showing its effectiveness.
Selenium
is an immune supporter which produces antibody responses.
