Why Saccharomyces Boulardii Works
Saccharomyces Boulardii (Sacro B) is currently the only yeast shown to have extensive research enough to support its use as a probiotic supplement. Unlike its close cousin Saccharomyces Cerevisiae known as Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces Boulardii appears to be very heat and pH stable as well as support unique health outcomes in the human host. There are three primary areas that Sacro B has been shown to support.
- Normal balance in the intestinal microbe colonies especially after eradication of microbial balance with medications.
- Healthy intestinal barrier function
- Normal stimulation of a healthy immune cell response in the intestinal tract.
Like a forest, the microbiota in the intestinal tract need to have a healthy balance of different organisms. If competitive or dominating organisms take hold, they may crowd out the beneficial organisms. On the opposite end of the spectrum, beneficial organisms like Sacro B have been shown to crowd out potentially problematic organisms. In fact, Sacro B has been shown to support a healthy response to potentially harmful organisms and a healthy bacterial balance in the GI tract. At the same time, due to what it eats and secretes, the presence of Sacro B appears to encourage the growth of beneficial bifidobacteria.
These organisms have been shown to support normal immune cell function and butyrate production that nourishes intestinal cells. Just like we make proteins, many probiotic organisms make proteins that they secrete into their environment. Sacro B has a tendency to produce proteins that may support healthy digestion of foods, bind to toxins that are produced by pathogenic microbes, and also support a healthy normal production of mucus from the local intestinal cells. Due to these factors and more, Sacro B supports a healthy immune system at the intestinal barrier as well as healthy barrier function.
Saccharomyces boulardii has been studied in clinical trials and has been found to help support gut health and may support health when presented with occasional diarrhea. Saccharomyces boulardii is a microorganism that plays a role in supporting normal intestinal absorption of D-glucose and sodium. This helps to maintain the normal uptake of water and electrolytes during occasional diarrhea. Saccharomyces Boulardii may also support healthy stool concentrations of short-chain fatty acids that help nourish colon mucosal cells.
