Ingredients explained
Caprylic Acid
Caprylic acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that may disrupt microbial cell membranes in the gut environment.
Caution: May cause digestive upset in some people; take with food to reduce discomfort.
Garlic (allicin releasing potential)
Allicin-related compounds may interact with microbial enzymes and cell membranes.
Caution: May cause garlic breath or stomach upset; can interact with blood-thinning supplements or diets.
Grapefruit seed extract
Plant compounds from grapefruit seeds are studied for effects on microbial balance in the gut.
Caution: Grapefruit components may affect how the body processes certain substances; separate from medications unless advised otherwise.
Pau D'Arco (inner bark)
Contains naphthoquinones that are studied for influencing microbial balance.
Caution: May cause stomach upset in sensitive individuals; avoid if you have known sensitivity to this herb.
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra)
Glycyrrhizin may influence mucosal comfort and microbial balance while affecting cortisol metabolism.
Caution: Excessive licorice intake may raise blood pressure or affect potassium; limit other sources of licorice.
How they work together
Caprylic acid targets microbial membranes, while garlic and grapefruit seed extract add complementary actions on microbial enzymes and integrity. Pau D'Arco contributes plant compounds associated with microbial balance, and licorice supports mucosal comfort to round out the formula.
