Saccharomyces Boulardii (60 capsules)

Saccharomyces Boulardii is a beneficial and non-colonizing yeast (not related to the Candida species) that can be helpful in supporting the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract.  Saccharomyces Boulardii has over 3 billion CFU’s per capsule.  Research studies have indicated that Saccharomyces boulardii may work by modulating the body’s immune response, thus helping to improve the resistance to harmful bacteria. Saccharomyces  Boulardii can be effectively taken with other probiotic strains but should not be taken within 2 hours of a prescription or natural anti-fungal, such as Nystatin, Diflucan, grapefruit seed extract, oregano oil, etc.

Saccharomyces Boulardii is a nonpathogenic, transient yeast long used to support normal bowel transit time. It is a hardy, acid-resistant, temperature tolerant microorganism that is not affected by antibacterial agents. Saccharomyces Boulardii is genetically and functionally distinct from brewer’s yeast (S. cerevisiae) and different from pathogenic Candida species.

Saccharomyces Boulardii increases the activities of intestinal brush border enzymes such as disaccharides, α-glucosidases, alkaline phosphatases, and aminopeptidases.

Saccharomyces Boulardii augments the intestinal absorption of D-glucose coupled with sodium that may enhance uptake of water and electrolytes during occasional diarrhea. It increases stool concentrations of short-chain fatty acids that nourish colon mucosal cells. S. boulardii modulates immunity by boosting intestinal secretion of IgA and increasing crypt cell immunoglobulin receptors. It supports healthy inflammatory response. Research has found that S. boulardii supports healthy intestinal function in an array of clinical settings, supporting healthy bowel transit time.
