Saccharomyces boulardii is a dry yeast that is contained in medicines in freeze-dried form. Saccharomyces boulardii works exclusively in the intestine. There the probiotic active ingredient colonises the intestinal wall.
Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeastintestinal disorders, diarrhoea and antibiotic-associated dysbiosis. In contrast to classic probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium, S. boulardii is a single-celled fungus, which is not part of the physiological intestinal floratemporarily colonises and develops a variety of health-promoting effects.
Particularly valuable is S. boulardii due to its ability to neutralise pathogenic bacteria and toxins, which
Another advantage: As a yeast, S. boulardii is not sensitive to antibiotics, which makes it the ideal complementary probiotic during antibiotic treatments. It also promotes the secretion of immunoglobulin A (IgA), regulates proinflammatory cytokines and protects the intestinal mucosa by strengthening the tight junctions. In functional microbiome protocols, S. boulardii is often combined with other pro- and prebiotics to support holistic gut rehabilitation and immunomodulation.
