CBD can be helpful in managing yeast, as it is a potent antifungal and has anti-inflammatory properties that can ease the swelling and tenderness associated with yeast infections. The hemp seed oil in our tinctures at CBD Dog Health provides additional therapeutic benefits for addressing yeast concerns.
According to our founder, holistic pet health expert Angela Ardolino, the first step is to gently clean the affected area with a 1:1 solution of apple cider vinegar and water. After that, you can apply a topical CBD salve like our Remedy Salve. This full-spectrum salve is designed to help reduce and promote healing of fungal infections, yeast infections, skin irritations, polyps, warts, and other growths. It helps alleviate inflammation, redness, and itching, restoring balance to the skin. Apply the Remedy Salve every day, up to 2-3 times daily, as needed.
(Note: We do not recommend Remedy Salve for cats.)
In addition to topical treatment, you might also consider using our Ease Full Spectrum CBD tincture. This tincture is formulated to support overall immune health, which is vital in managing yeast levels. It contains frankincense and turmeric extract, both known for their powerful anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties. Frankincense can help reduce inflammation and promote healing, while turmeric supports the immune system and helps keep yeast in check. By enhancing your pet’s natural defenses, EASE provides a holistic approach to maintaining a healthy balance in the body. Regular use of EASE can improve your pet’s ability to manage yeast over time.
