Info: 90 Vegi-Caps (250 mg Each)
Powerful protection when you need it most! Saccharomyces boulardii is a healthy yeast that kills the bad yeast! This is a non-pathogenic species of yeast that creates an unfavourable environment for harmful or over-abundant types, but does not colonize to create problems of its own. It's likely the most effective type of probiotic for treating diarrhea in children.

Product Notes:
Saccharomyces Boulardii Protects the Intestinal Tract from Antibiotics
Saccharomyces Boulardii is used to reduce diarrhea and heartburn, and can help protect against serious bacterial infections like C. difficile and help treat H-Pylori and all forms of diarrhea naturally – including traveller's diarrhea.
Many health conditions bring with them terrible side effects. Commonly, gastrointestinal distress and/or diarrhea is a symptom. When recovering from an illness, often antibiotics will be used. However, when using antibiotics, the bacteria in the gut can be harmed, adding to stomach and gastrointestinal issues - something that's best remedied with a probiotic, particularly one like this which is impervious to the antibiotics.
Clinical studies have shown Saccharomyces Boulardii to be beneficial in dealing with the symptoms of gastrointestinal troubles, including antibiotic-associated and traveller's diarrhea. S. Boulardii is also recommended by some practitioners as part of a nutritional protocol for SIBO.
