G&G’s Saccharomyces Boulardii, G&G, 60s

G&G’s Saccharomyces Boulardii Ingredients: Saccharomyces Boulardii, L-Glutamine, capsule shell: vegetable cellulose

Study:

This is a study on some of the amazing therapeutic properties of Saccharomyces Boulardii. From that study: “Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast often used for the treatment of GI tract disorders. These include diarrhoea symptoms. It is genetically close to the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its classification as a distinct species. It is also a S. cerevisiae variant. Here, we review the main genetic divergencies between S. boulardii. But also S. cerevisiae as a strategy to uncover the ability to adapt to the host physiological conditions by the probiotic.

S. boulardii does possess discernible phenotypic traits and physiological properties that underlie its success as probiotic. These are optimal growth temperature, resistance to the gastric environment and viability at low pH. Its probiotic activity has been elucidated as a conjunction of multiple pathways, ranging from improvement of gut barrier function, pathogen competitive exclusion, production of antimicrobial peptides, immune modulation, and trophic effects. This review summarizes the participation of S. boulardii in these mechanisms and the multifactorial nature by which this yeast modulates the host microbiome and intestinal function.”

I recommend a good probiotic, along side a multi vitamins/minerals, plus omega 3s, as the 3 pillars for optimal health.
