Crohn’s disease, which affects over 560,000 people in the United States, is traditionally managed with surgery or prescription medications. Recent findings may change that. A new study has found a correlation between fungal and bacterial populations in Crohn’s patients. Fungi Candida Tropicalis, Serratia marcescens, and the bacteria E. coli were found in abundance in the guts of Crohn’s sufferers, with a strong lack of good bacteria. Even with factors such as genetics and diet taken into account, the amounts of pathogens were found consistently high across the board.
Fortunately, lactobacillus acidophilus has been shown to slow the growth of Candida in the bowel, and these friendly organisms actually help to produce a type of natural antibiotic that will kill off Candida overgrowth.
NEOLIFE’S ACIDOPHILUS PLUS differs from other probiotics in that it:
- provides 5 billion live bacteria – more than the probiotics in 10 servings of yogurt!
- supplies an exclusive blend of 5 types of probiotics
- uses gel-guard protection to ensure probiotic delivery through the stomach acid to the small intestine
- higher b-vitamin absorption
- long-term colon health
- reduced risk of colon cancer
- easier lactose digestion
- strengthened immunity
- reduce food allergy symptoms
- less “bad” bacteria
- IBD and IBS relief
Garlic has demonstrated significant anti-fungal activity and is especially active against candida, both in invivo and invitro studies, so an evening dose of Garlic is prudent. (This should be taken some hours after taking Acidophilus, as Garlic can inactivate friendly probiotics, too.)
NEOLIFE’S GARLIC ALLIUM COMPLEX:
- Utilizes targeted technology to ensure release in the intestines for optimal benefit

- Provides rosemary to help protect tablets from being destroyed by stomach acid
