We examined how Saccharomyces boulardii affects inflammation and colonization by Candida albicans in a mouse model of chemically-induced colitis. Mice were treated with either S. boulardii or C. albicans, and results showed that S. boulardii significantly reduced the levels of C. albicans and inflammation markers compared to controls.
Specifically, the presence of S. boulardii led to fewer yeast colonies and less severe inflammation, as seen in lower clinical scores. The study highlights the potential of S. boulardii as a promising treatment to combat yeast infections.

We explored the effects of Saccharomyces boulardii, a probiotic yeast, on the harmful effects of the Candida albicans fungus. Our study focused on how it can inhibit the growth and adhesion of this pathogen, which is known for causing serious infections.
Using extracts from S. boulardii, we found that a compound called capric acid plays a key role in reducing the fungus's growth and ability to form biofilms. This suggests that S. boulardii could be beneficial in managing yeast infections, particularly as resistance to traditional treatments increases.

Probiotics reduce yeast infections significantly
We explored the impact of a probiotic mix, including Saccharomyces boulardii, on preventing yeast infections in children receiving broad-spectrum antibiotics in a pediatric intensive care unit.
In our study, involving over 700 children, we found that the group receiving probiotics experienced a significant reduction in both candidemia and candiduria compared to the control group.
This suggests that probiotics could be a helpful approach to decrease these infections in vulnerable patients. Overall, we observed promising results highlighting the value of probiotics in a clinical setting.

Symptoms nearly gone

I had a cluster of symptoms that I couldn't get rid of - psoriasis, painful cracks in my mouth, vaginal problems and bloating. After researching, I self-diagnosed with leaky gut, linked to a yeast infection in my intestine. Upon taking this product, my symptoms have nearly disappeared. I take twice the normal dosage, helping more than indicated. When I run out, my symptoms return. It's not a cure, but it's very helpful.

Zero yeast infections
23 people found this helpful
I've had chronic yeast infections for the past 4-5 years. After convincing my doctors for a weekly dose of Diflucan, I still faced issues. Recently, I discovered this product and took one a day for 2 months, with ZERO problems! Not even a slight sign of a yeast infection. I am relieved to have found something that works for me!

After trying many probiotics for severe intestinal issues, Saccharomyces worked wonders for my yeast infection, improving my digestion significantly. It also stores well at room temperature.

We explored the effects of Saccharomyces boulardii on Candida albicans translocation from the gut in immunosuppressed rats. In a study with 60 rats divided into treatment and control groups, we found that both Saccharomyces boulardii and bombesin reduced the spread of Candida.
However, rats treated with bombesin had less severe inflammation and tissue damage compared to those given Saccharomyces boulardii. This suggests that while Saccharomyces boulardii offers some benefits, bombesin may be more effective against yeast infections in this context.

Great with antibiotics
5 people found this helpful
I spent 2 years on high doses of multiple antibiotics and took these probiotics daily. I experienced not a single yeast infection and no gastrointestinal issues whilst on antibiotics. They worked brilliantly as probiotics can be taken with antibiotics. Now that I'm off the antibiotics, I continue with one a day for maintenance and love them.

Stops yeast infections
4 people found this helpful
Stops thrush and other yeast infections! I believe it could be beneficial for chemotherapy patients. This product is a probiotic specifically designed to combat bad forms of yeast that cause thrush and vaginal yeast infections. I use it when taking antibiotics or if I feel soreness starting. It works wonderfully, with no side effects since it's just a probiotic.
