Pure Essence Candex 20 Servings

Candida albicans is a fungal yeast that is literally everywhere, which means you can’t keep it out of your body. When it grows out of control, it causes a host of problems, like localized (primarily vaginal or rectal) itching, depression, irritability, dizziness, unclear thinking, difficulty focusing, brain fog, fatigue, gas, bloating, diarrhea or constipation, rapid weight loss or gain, flatulence, and cravings for sweets or alcohol. The severity of these issues ranges from mildly annoying to nearly debilitating. Research from Rice University concludes that up to 70% of Americans are impacted by Candida.

Under normal circumstances, your gut is populated by a wide variety of beneficial bacteria called probiotics. If you have enough of these bacteria, Candida can’t cause a problem. Candida, however, is highly opportunistic, meaning that if space is made available by a decline in your probiotic populations, it takes over in a hurry. In fact, Candida doubles its population every two hours.

In the modern world, probiotics are under constant attack. Antibiotics, oral contraceptives, chlorinated water (even in the shower or bath), poor diet, extreme stress, and countless pharmaceutical drugs can kill them. It is this constant assault on probiotics that makes Candida a problem.

For many years, Candida protocols were limited to anti-fungal drugs and herbs. These agents have three major problems. First, they can damage the liver. Second, Candida develops resistance to them. Third, they cause massive “die off” reactions that can be worse than Candida itself.

Candida’s metabolic machinery exists within a cell surrounded by a cell wall. This cell wall is an organ in its own right, but also protects everything that goes on within the cell. If the cell wall is destroyed, the cell cannot function, and thereby dies.

Our founder, Jery Cochern, has studied Candida for over 30 years. Seeing that the cell wall is Candida’s weakest point, he looked for a way to degrade it without the problems presented by antifungals. He found a way by using a specific group of enzymes. Candida cannot become immune to these enzymes. They are completely safe, do not trigger severe die-off reactions, do not contain antifungals, and do not cause any damage to the liver.

To degrade the cell wall of Candida, we must break down the mannoproteins, glycoproteins, chitins, and beta glucans from which it’s made. While, from these names, it would seem that we need to digest a lot of protein, mannoproteins are actually up to 95% carbohydrate with bits of proteins woven in. By digesting the carbohydrate fractions, the cell wall collapses. The enzymes in Candex™ break down these carbohydrates, and also act on the chitins and beta glucans that lie deeper within the cell wall.*

Candex™ is a fast acting, pleasant Candida cleanse that requires no major dietary changes. It has been the first choice of both consumers and health practitioners for over 20 years for one simple reason – it works! But it doesn’t just work – it works fast. You will begin feeling better in 10 days or less. And, you will have none of the Candida die off caused by other products.*

Candex™ has been tested in clinical and laboratory studies. In the clinical study, subjects were selected after multiple tests confirmed Candida as an issue. Researchers concluded that all subjects improved.*

Naturally, the success of Candex™ has spurred imitations. Most of these contain large levels of protease, but protease is not needed to degrade Candida’s cell wall. Those formulas should be taken between meals, but large levels of protease at these times can aggravate ulcers and other gut issues that may accompany yeast overgrowth.*
