Saccharomyces Boulardii - 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Saccharomyces Boulardii

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. S. boulardii is genetically and functionally distinct from brewer's yeast (S. cerevisiae) and different from pathogenic Candida species.

• increases the activities of intestinal brush border enzymes such as disaccharidases, glucosidases, alkaline phosphatases, and aminopeptidases.
• boulardii augments the intestinal absorption of D-glucose coupled with sodium that may enhance uptake of water and electrolytes during occasional diarrhea.
• 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.
