Description
BFB-1 and BFB-2 are two separate, topically applied, essential oil blends. Their main purpose is to help degrade biofilms, interfere with communication between microbes, enhance penetration of concurrently used antimicrobials and act as antimicrobials themselves. We decided to produce two overlapping formulas and recommend via our testing results. Some will need one of them while more chronic conditions may need both simultaneously.
BFB-1 consists of a proprietary blend of the following essential oils: Piper nigrum, Rosmarinus officinalis, Syzygium aromaticum l., and Origanum compactum benth.
A biofilm is a negatively charged group of cells which produce a matrix of extracellular polymeric substance and adhere to each other.
The biofilm is used to both protect the bacteria from the host’s immune system and most antimicrobial agents, while also serving as a nutritional reservoir in times of need. It’s an efficient way to ensure that many microbes of a certain species survive, thrive, replicate, and avoid attack. Biofilms have been found to be involved in a large percentage of bodily infections.
Biofilms can also be referred to as “bacterial slime”, and are generally composed of extracellular DNA, proteins, polysaccharides, fibrin, microbes, minerals and heavy metals. A biofilm can be comprised of multiple microbes; bacteria, viral, protozoa, parasite, and fungus that cohabitate and engage in “quorum sensing”, a form of communication used for sharing information and mutual survival.
Primary Usage:
