Since its discovery, there have been 250 peer-reviewed articles examining \u003cem\u003eS. boulardii\u003c\/em\u003e, making this one of the most studied probiotics available. \u003cem\u003eS. boulardii\u003c\/em\u003e is a non-pathogenic yeast and is distinctly different from \u003cem\u003eSaccharomyces cerevisiae\u003c\/em\u003e, or \"brewer’s yeast.\" \u003cem\u003eS. boulardii\u003c\/em\u003e has been shown to support gastrointestinal health by boosting secretory IgA (sIgA) levels. sIgA is an immunoglobulin (protective antibody) that is found in the digestive tract and in mucosal secretions throughout the body. Maintaining healthy sIgA levels is crucial for supporting immune health, particularly in the GI system where there can be significant exposure to unwanted agents. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003esIgA acts as the first line of defense against foreign substances in the gut by attaching and neutralizing proteins that are unrecognized by the body. Depleted levels of sIgA are often found in people with low immune response, food intolerance and dysbiosis. Dysbiosis occurs when normally dominant probiotic organisms are outnumbered by commonly out-competed species. In addition to boosting sIgA levels, \u003cem\u003eS. boulardii\u003c\/em\u003e promotes gastrointestinal health by competing for space and nutrients against unwanted organisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\tTo be an effective probiotic, microorganisms must have certain qualities to withstand the natural defense factors of the host. This includes resistance to gastrointestinal transit and the ability to thrive at human core temperatures. This formulation of \u003cem\u003eSaccharomyces boulardii\u003c\/em\u003e is a stomach acid-resistant probiotic, proven to survive high temperatures and transit into the intestines. The formula is freeze-dried, lactose-free and strain-verified through genetic typing to ensure maximum efficacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \n    \u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 11px;\"\u003e\n     \u003cp\u003eOrtho Molecular Products' logo, text, trademarks, graphics, and photo images are the property of Ortho Molecular Products, Inc. and are used with permission.
