Saccharomyces boulardii
Beneficial effects of supplementation with Saccharomyces boulardii have been reported in over 300 peer-reviewed published studies. The positive effects are as follows: Enhances gut's natural enzymes and nutrient transporters to preserve tight junctions Helps prevent and treat antibiotic-associated diarrhea (ADD) Has a strong negative effect on Candida albicans Helps prevent the formation of adherence filaments (how bacteria attach to each other and to you) Helps prevent formation of biofilms (bacteria secreted layer that can protect them from antibiotics) Helps prevent bacteria-associated G.I. tissue disruptions Limits the infiltration of Th1 cells to help limit pro-inflammatory cytokine-induced swelling Increases secretory IgA levels more than other probiotics Saccharomyces boulardii is also very heat and acid resistant so it survives the hot trip through the mail and through your stomach too.
