Syntol: Support for Intestinal Health and the Immune System

Maintaining the proper balance of healthy intestinal bacteria, also referred to as microflora, is one of the best ways to hinder the growth of or crowd out unwanted fungal and bacterial overgrowth. Syntol is a dietary supplement which contains a powerful probiotic ‘spore’ formula that promotes optimal intestinal conditions for healthy bacterial growth.  Probiotic spores are much more resilient to destruction during digestion.  Unlike typical probiotics, spore probiotics are encased in protective spores that later sprout and germinate inside the body.  Standard off the shelf probiotics are freeze dried bacteria that are often “killed by the millions” in stomach acid during digestion.  Typical probiotics can only survive a few years on the shelf and are often required to be refrigerated to prevent spoiling, whereas spores can actually survive indefinitely. Spore probiotics are similar to plant seeds and have a shelf life that can last millennia. This formula also contains enzymes target harmful fungal yeasts from the body. Syntol has even been categorized as a gentle yeast cleanse due to its ability to remove yeast without causing uncomfortable detox symptoms that are usually accompanied by killing yeast. 
Probiotics for Candida

Probiotics, are often described as the “good” or “friendly” bacteria that reside in the digestive tract and for over a decade, research has shown that probiotic supplementation helps ward off the cold and flu by supporting a healthy immune system [1-4]. More specifically, a comprehensive review of clinical probiotic studies revealed that probiotics are better than placebos at promoting a healthy upper respiratory tract [5]. Research also indicates that probiotics promote healthy digestive function by binding to toxins in the intestines and decreasing their accessibility to the body [6]

Syntol contains 13.6 billion colony forming units (CFUs) of several non-competing strains of probiotic bacteria. One in particular called B. subtilis, is a spore forming bacteria that can withstand harsh intestinal conditions such as dramatic changes in pH or temperature. Its ability to thrive in sub-optimal environments improves the chances that spores will germinate and develop into healthy microflora within the intestines. Lactobacillus is also included in the formulation. This family of microflora produces hydrogen peroxide, which poisons yeast and promotes the removal of excessive yeast, especially Candida yeast, from the intestines.

In order to further enhance the removal of harmful yeast and bacteria from the body, a specific blend of enzymes was added to the formula.

These include:

  • Protease & Serrapeptase
    (Promote the digestion of proteins)
  • Cellulase & Hemicellulase
    (Digest yeasts protective layers)
  • Glucoamylase & Amylase
    (Remove sugars that feed yeast)

The enzymes destroy the protective protein shell as well as the cellular components of Candida yeast, which intestinal bacteria generally struggle to remove without the assistance of additional enzymes and probiotics.

Overall, by supporting healthy digestive function while boosting the immune system, the one of a kind formulation in Syntol helps the body naturally remove toxins and bacterial imbalance.
