Anti-Diarrhoeal

Description

1. Probiotics are live microbes, which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit to the host. S. boulardii is a unique, non-pathogenic yeast supplement that has been utilized worldwide as a probiotic to support gastrointestinal health. S. boulardii does not colonize the human intestinal tract and is not one of the microorganisms that normally inhabit the intestines. It is a
   transient yeast that passes through the intestines after ingestion. S. boulardii does not attach to the mucosal cells lining the intestinal lumen, but exerts its beneficial effects on the host as it moves through the gastrointestinal tract. The protective effects of S. boulardii on C. difficile induced inflammatory diarrhoea in humans are due, at least in part, to photeolytic digestion of toxin A
   and B molecules by a secreted protease.
2. Additionally, S. boulardii increases the immune system by inducing the secretion of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the small intestine.
