Allergy Research Group - Saccharomyces Boulardii Caps - 50
A single celled yeast fungus. An organism that belongs to the Brewer's Yeast family and is not of the group to which Candida belongs. Though not a permanent resident of the intestine, taken orally it quickly becomes established and "blooms" soon after supplementation has begun. As it blooms, it produces lactic acid and some B vitamins, and has an overall probiotic effect. S. Boulardii is eliminated shortly after supplementation is discontinued. ARG's S. Boulardii is the most potent such formulation available. S. Boulardii has been shown to increase secretory IgA and protect gastrointestinal tract against outgrowth of pathogens during use of antibiotics.
