Why choose a Saccharomyces boulardii yeast probiotic?
Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast that is able to survive stomach acid and colonises the intestinal
tract. Use it for optimum digestive health and immune function by supporting the growth of friendly
bacteria.
Our InternaCALM probiotic supplement:
supports a healthy and balanced intestinal tract
helps to encourage a healthy balance of gut flora (bowel bacteria)
supports a balanced inflammatory response.
Saccharomyces boulardii has also been shown to support normal gastrointestinal function during a disruption
to gut flora balance, such as when travelling abroad where sanitation, food and water supply may not be
ideal.
This yeast was first isolated from lychee and mangosteen fruit in the 1920s by a French scientist called Henri
Boulard. He had observed natives of Southeast Asia chewing the skin of these fruits to control cholera.
Although it is in the same genus as Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker’s, brewer’s or dietary yeast),
Saccharomyces boulardii is not linked to the candida species (Candida albicans, tropicalas, etc.), Crohn’s
disease or any other disease. It has also been shown to be non-systemic / non-colonising, i.e. it remains in
the gastrointestinal tract rather than spreading elsewhere in the body.

What is Saccharomyces boulardii? Saccharomyces boulardii is a unique type of non-pathogenic and tropical fungus (yeast) that was first isolated from lychee and mangosteen
fruit.
Benefits of Saccharomyces boulardii yeast probiotic: This yeast has a number of beneficial health actions. In particular, it can benefit the digestive tract, because it can
increase intestinal populations of friendly bacteria and lower numbers of disease-causing and other harmful organisms. Saccharomyces boulardii is therefore classed as a
probiotic even though it is actually a yeast rather than a form of bacteria).
As a result of these beneficial actions, Saccharomyces boulardii is widely used to support digestive health. InternaCALM is high-strength Saccharomyces boulardii probiotic
yeast. One of the key features of this form of yeast is that it is able to survive stomach acid. It is a hardy, acid resistant, temperature-tolerant micro-organism that is not affected
by antibacterial agents or antibiotics.
Yeast cells are also larger than bacteria cells, which gives Saccharomyces boulardii more coverage in the gut. It works as a probiotic by colonising the intestinal tract and
supporting the growth of friendly bacteria. It supports a healthy and balanced digestive system, a healthy balance of gut flora (bowel bacteria) and a balanced inflammatory
response.
Saccharomyces boulardii is most commonly used for treating and preventing dysentery and diarrhea, including infectious types such as rotaviral diarrhea in children, diarrhea
caused by gastrointestinal bacterial overgrowth in adults, “traveller's diarrhea” and diarrhea associated with tube feedings. Saccharomyces boulardii yeast probiotic has also
been shown to support normal gastrointestinal function during periods of dysbiosis. Studies have also shown that Saccharomyces boulardii is effective against intestinal
complications and inflammatory responses brought about by the use of antibiotics, as well as by infections such as Clostridium difficile. There is evidence to suggest that it can
be effective in preventing relapses of Crohn’s disease and treating pouchitis (a form of intestinal inflammation in surgical a pouch created in the treatment of ulcerative colitis).
Saccharomyces boulardii works by inhibiting certain bacterial toxins and/or their effects by modulating the body's immune response, helping to improve the resistance to
enteropathogenic bacteria, by having direct effects on the intestinal mucosa and by preventing T lymphocyte white blood cells (which are critical to the development of Crohn's
disease) from migrating from lymph nodes surrounding the bowel.
This probiotic yeast is used to ease constipation, bloating, abdominal pain, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms and smelly farts / bad smelling wind.
