Yeast Guard Plus

Help beat the yeast with these 3 steps

If your dog has ear infections, itchy paws, itchiness or hair loss, it might be yeast. Poor diet, drugs and vaccines can all feed unhealthy yeast populations, which can stress your dog's immune system and create allergy symptoms.

There are three key steps to eliminate Candida, yeast and fungal infections ... which is why there are three key products in our Yeast Guard Plus kit:

Step 1: Break Down Yeast's Protective Coating

Candida and other yeast species have a sticky coating called a biofilm. The biofilm makes the yeast resistant to immune cells ... and this allows yeast to grow unchecked in your dog.

A key step to eliminate yeast is to break down its biofilm. This removes the protective coating from yeast, allowing anti-fungal foods and herbs to start working.

Yeast Guard is a veterinary-formulated blend of anti-fungal herbs and caprylic acid. It includes the powerhouse combination of pau d'arco, organic olive leaf and sustainably grown organic goldenseal.

Step 2: Eliminate & Detoxify Yeast

Once the biofilm is breached, anti-fungal herbs and foods can start to eliminate yeast. It's important to also remove yeast's food supply. This means feeding a diet that's low in starch and avoiding drugs and chemicals that contain heavy metals.

The anti-fungal herbs in Yeast Guard will work best with digestive enzymes. These help break down the biofilm, an important coating that protects yeast like a full metal jacket. You must break down the biofilm to attack yeast.

Step 3: Restore & Replenish Gut Bacteria

It's important to address the root cause of Candida and yeast: inflamed and leaky guts. This final step helps prevent over-crowding of unwanted yeast in the gut and helps soothe and heal the gut lining. A healthy gut lining can prevent yeast from escaping the digestive tract.

Yeast and bacterial overgrowth can cause gut irritation, allowing yeast to travel out of the gut and into the body. Gut Guard is a blend of gut soothing herbs and probiotics that can help restore proper gut flora.

Digest

Gut Guard

Follow label instructions or give as directed by your veterinarian.

• Yeast Guard - Give full dose once daily at meal time
• Digest - Give full dose once daily away from meal time (at least 20 minutes before or after meal time)
  
• Gut Guard - Give full dose twice daily at meal time

For best results, give Yeast Guard Plus for 30 - 60 days or as directed by your veterinarian.

To beat yeast, it’s also recommended to give your dog a high-quality diet free of starches and pesticides.

Once symptoms resolve, continue to support your dog’s gut health with Protect (sold separately). Protect contains veterinary formulated probiotics and a friendly yeast to help keep Candida and yeast populations down.

How long should I use Yeast Guard Plus?

Yeast Guard Plus should be used for 30 - 60 days depending on your dog's response.

After finishing the Yeast Guard Plus kit, we recommend using Protect to supply your dog with a healthy dose of soil-based probiotics to help support a healthy gut moving forward.

Can I buy Yeast Guard by itself?

Yeast Guard is most effective when it's used in combination with Digest and Gut Guard. Yeast Guard is used to help the body reduce and detoxify yeast populations, Digest is loaded with enzymes and probiotics to help break down yeast, and Gut Guard is used to help seal leaky gut.

By buying Yeast Guard Plus kit, you save 20% off of the combined regular price of all 3 products.

Is the caprylic acid made with MCT Oil or Coconut Oil?

Yeast Guard uses caprylic and capric acid made from MCT Oil.

Ideally, your dog's caprylic and capric acid should come from MCT oil. Other sources, like goat milk, contain sugar (lactose) that can feed the yeast. And coconut oil is nearly half lauric acid, which promotes inflammation in the body.

This is why we ensure that Yeast Guard is made with only the highest quality ingredients, in this case, MCT oil. 

Should I change my dog's diet to help fight yeast?

If your dog is currently eating a kibble diet then switching to a raw diet would be the best course of action to help fight yeast. Switching to a raw diet helps to eliminate sugar and carbs from your dog's diet as even grain-free kibbles are usually full of carbs and sugars.

Common sources of carbs and sugars found in pet foods include:

• Rice
• Millet
• Potatoes and sweet potatoes
• Wheat and corn
• Oats
• Peas

If fruits are part of your dog's diet, limit them to berries as they are lower in sugar content.

What else can I do to help my dog fight yeast?

Yeast loves heavy metals, meaning one of the best ways to fight yeast is to avoid letting heavy metals get into your dog.

Iron and Zinc are important and are healthy in small amounts but metals such as arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead, and mercury can be toxic to your dog.

Feeding your dog organic food is a good way to avoid glyphosate (which is loaded with heavy metals). Fish, low-quality fish oil, and fluoridated water are all common sources of heavy metals and should be limited as much as possible to help fight yeast as well. 

When should I give Yeast Guard Plus?

Gut Guard and Yeast Guard can be given at mealtime, but for best results Digest should ideally be given between meals (at least 20 minutes before or after meal time). This will help break down the yeast cell wall and allow Yeast Guard Plus to do its job.
