Saccharomyces
boulardii
Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast used to support gut health and manage diarrhea.
Saccharomyces boulardii is a beneficial yeast-based probiotic, distinct from bacterial probiotics, commonly used for digestive health and prevention of certain types of diarrhea. It is well-studied for its role in supporting the intestinal barrier and modulating immune responses.
Extensive evidence supports S. boulardii for prevention and reduction of antibiotic-associated and infectious diarrhea; ongoing research for other gut and immune effects.
Reduces risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea
StrongMultiple clinical trials and meta-analyses show S. boulardii supplementation lowers the likelihood and severity of diarrhea during or following antibiotics.
Helps manage acute infectious diarrhea
StrongCan reduce the duration and severity of infectious diarrhea, including in children and travelers, as supported by systematic reviews.
Supports gut barrier function
ModerateEvidence suggests S. boulardii may help maintain or restore the integrity of the intestinal barrier and reduce inflammatory cytokine responses.
