Yeast Balance™† herbal blend: Surprising Secrets of Well-Known Herbs
Probiotics are a great way to support healthy yeast balance, but they’re certainly not the only way.† Common herbs you probably already know well can make a big difference too.
The MVH’s (Most Valuable Herbs)
In fact, clinical studies have found that some of the most familiar herbs are pretty valuable players—supporting healthy digestion, immune response, and of course, yeast balance.† Yeast Balance† provides the select ingredients you need:
- An oil extract of good old oregano provides strong antioxidant power and helps support your body’s level of probiotics, also known as “microflora.”†
- Extracts of thyme—another kitchen standby—provide support for the immune system, especially white blood cell production.† Recent studies show that has yeast-balance-specific properties, too.†
- Almost everyone knows about peppermint’s ability to support healthy digestion—going all the way back to ancient Greece.† While having a mint after dinner may seem more about fending off food breath, the practice actually began as a way to feel better after a meal. Clinical studies closer to our own time verify this age-old wisdom, showing that the oils in peppermint support the health of the large intestine.† Those ancient Greeks knew a thing or two.
- Goldenseal—not a tabletop or spice drawer herb, but common nonetheless—contains compounds that give your immune system a natural boost.† Plus, it appears to broaden the benefits of oregano, thyme, and peppermint as well.
Women Aged 25 to 45 may benefit most
For the most part, women age 25-45 have the greatest concern about supporting healthy yeast balance; however, men are affected by this issue as well.
Yeast loves sugar—do you?
Yeast thrives on sugar. Maybe you feel like you do, too. Some experts believe that yeast balance issues may lead to over-consumption of refined sugars and carbohydrates, which simply compounds the concern. By balancing yeast, along with regular exercise and a healthy diet, you may find those cravings reduced—with the added potential benefit of weight loss as well.
Common herbs, uncommon benefits
Oregano, thyme, peppermint, and goldenseal may be common enough herbs, but they can provide uncommon benefits. If yeast is a concern, put those herbs to work with Yeast Balance.†
