Alli-cinn
by Pharmax is an excellent broad-spectrum antimicrobial
preparation of garlic and cinnamon extracts, specifically formulated to safely
and naturally act against undesirable bacteria, fungi, viruses and protozoa.
Unlike destructive antibiotics, the antimicrobial constituents in Alli-cinn are
gentle to the cells of the intestinal, urinary, and vaginal tract and do not
disrupt the beneficial bacteria which keep the immune system strong, and keep
the intestines functioning optimally. Yet, Alli-cinn has antimicrobial effects
similar to most antibiotics, thus an ideal alternative to using antibiotics or
antifungals.
Common used for:
Yeast and fungus (i.e. Candida,
Aspergillus, Viral (i.e. influenza, herpes simplex, Porcine Rotavirus),
Protozoa (i.e. Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Blastocystis, Trichomonas vaginalis),
Bacterial (i.e. colds, bronchitis, sinusitus, bacterial vaginosis, Intestinal
dysbiosis, Cold and flu, Gram positive and Gram negative, bacteri,
Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli (Escherica coli), Candida albicans, Bacillus
cereus, Saccharomyces, cerevisiae, Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridium
perfringens, Salmonella enteritidis, Pseudomona, aeruginosa, Listeria
monocytogenes.
Powerful antimicrobial supplement made of freeze dried garlic extract
concentrate (allicin) and cinnamon bark oil.
Special manufacturing process unlike other garlic extracts which is made
to release upon contact with the gut when the contents get wet with water and
acid to have maximum effect in the GI and body.
No negative effect on the
beneficial lactic acid flora of the G.I. and Urinary tracts
Designed to be
used alongside with HLC probiotics.
Garlic has been shown to reduce
platelet aggregation and is beneficial for the circulation.
Garlic is known
to help lower serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels and increase high
density lipoproteins (HDL's)
The pre-emulsified, freeze-dried
cinnamaldehyde powder concentrate is very gut active
Suitable for
vegetarians and vegans.

More Info About Alli-Cinn by Pharmax
AlliCin has the broadest spectrum of activity of all the plant
antimicrobial substances tested, with dramatic inhibitory effects over a vast
range of microorganisms, not only against many bacteria (including that which
causes bacterial vaginosis, E. coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus) but
also many yeasts, fungi, protozoa and even viruses. Perhaps the most important
discovery, however, was that allicin has virtually no negative effect on the
beneficial lactic flora of the gastrointestinal (G.I.) and genitourinary (G.U.)
tracts.
The cinnamaldehydes in cinnamon bark oil are very potent against
gram-negative bacteria like E. coli, and gram-positive bacteria like
Staphylococcus aureus (including MRSA) and are also strongly active against
yeasts and fungi. In fact, cinnamaldehydes have the greatest antibacterial and
antifungal activity of all of the common volatile oils. Cinnamaldehyde is
included in Pharmax's Alli-Cinn at a concentration below the levels at which
lactic acid bacteria are affected.
A combination of freeze-dried concentrates of whole garlic and cinnamon
bark oil. The medicinal properties of fresh garlic have been known for
centuries. The problem that has arisen in presenting garlic as a supplement is
the inherent instability of the initial active substance, allicin, which is
created when a clove of garlic is crushed.
Allicin is not found within the garlic clove. Instead, when the clove is
crushed, allicin is formed instantaneously from the interaction of an enzyme
called alliinase on a precursor of allicin called alliin. By selecting the
highest quality garlic cloves, rich in alliin and alliinase, and then gently
freeze-drying them, a concentrated powder is produced which only releases the
prime active allicin component when ingested and rehydrated, i.e. all of the
allicin is released within the gastro-intestinal tract.
