Have you heard the term Biofilm before?
Biofilm is a structure created by gut microbes (mycotoxins, unhealthy bacteria, parasites, candida) for protection.
It is a sticky film that covers the microbes, which prevent the immune system from penetrating through and eliminating them.
Parasites also live inside Biofilm.
General Symptoms Associated with Excess Biofilm:
- Anal Itching (pinworm itching along the colon at night)
- Teeth Grinding (at night) or Jaw Clenching
- Hives, Eczema, Psoriasis (from toxin release from parasites)
- Muscle Twitching, Fasciculations
- Bladder Issues, Yeast Issues, Re-Occurring UTIs
- Brain Fog, Fatigue
- Bloating
Essentially, Biofilms are physical barriers that form around infections, bacteria and illness in the body.
If our films aren’t disrupted properly, and can grow in excess. Parasites, yeast or other foreign gut bacteria that we are trying to get rid of, can stay undetected within this film. Causing them to resurface later on and create havoc.
Biofilms are common in people that have ‘tried everything’ with no success. They’re struggling with some sort of mystery illness causing the common symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and multiple digestive issues that have gone on for years with little improvement.
This is why it’s essential that you work to reduce Biofilms within your gut.
The best way to address biofilms is with specific anti-biofilm agents and detox therapies that are shown to help to break up the biofilm structures.
Examples of Biofilm Busters Including:
- Butyrate – Produced when good bacteria in your gut helps your body break down dietary fiber in the large intestine (colon). It’s one of several short-chain fatty acids, which are named for their chemical structure.
- Silver – Is known to decrease bacterial adhesion and destabilizes the Biofilm matrix.
- NAC – Anti-Biofilm agent. Used for its effectiveness both in inhibiting biofilm formation and in destroying developed biofilms.
By incorporating specific agents to strategically address the issue of Biofilms, other treatments become more effective and easier to tolerate. Allowing you to overcome persistent health challenges.
