Saccharomyces boulardii


saccharomycesyeastIntroduction:

Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast that supports the digestive system and skin health by providing a barrier to harmful pathogens. The strongest evidence for consideration of this supplement’s use is included here. Probiotics work in general by lowering intestinal pH, decreasing numbers of harmful organisms, and improving immune response. Saccharomyces boulardii has been found to be effective in treating antibiotic associated diarrhea, Clostridium difficile colitis, and acne. It is generally advised that a probiotic supplement should contain several billion microorganisms for it to be effective. Probiotics are considered safe and well tolerated in patients with an intact immune system, however caution should be taken in patients who are critically ill, on chemotherapy or immunocompromised. The most common side-effects include bloating and flatulence. (1)
