More Info

What does Saccharomyces do in the body?
Saccharomyces is a single celled yeast fungus. It is 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. S. Boulardii has been shown to increase secretory IgA and protect gastrointestinal tract against outgrowth of pathogens during use of antibiotics.

What are some food sources of Probiotics?
Beneficial bacteria present in fermented dairy foods—namely live culture yogurt—have been used as a folk remedy for hundreds, if not thousands of years. Yogurt is the traditional source of beneficial bacteria. However, different brands of yogurt can vary greatly in their bacteria strain and potency. Some (particularly frozen) yogurts do not contain any live bacteria. Supplements in powder, liquid extract, capsule, or tablet form containing beneficial bacteria are other sources of probiotics.
