Effective in reducing UTI incidence
D-Mannose Plus to Prevent Urinary Tract Infections and Discomfort after Cystoscopy: A Single-Center Prospective Randomized Pilot Study.
High relevance for UTI management
We aimed to see if D-Mannose plus could help prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and discomfort in patients who underwent cystoscopy. In this single-center pilot study, patients were split into two groups: one received D-Mannose plus and the other did not.

Results showed that those taking D-Mannose plus had no positive urine cultures after the procedure, while 18.8% of the control group did. Furthermore, patients in the D-Mannose plus group reported significantly lower pain and urinary symptoms post-cystoscopy.

However, overall quality of life scores didn't differ significantly between the groups.

Probiotics reduce fungal infections
Probiotic use and prevalence of candidemia and candiduria in a PICU.
High relevance for pediatric care
We investigated the impact of probiotics on the prevalence of candidemia and candiduria in children undergoing treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics. In a careful retrospective study in a pediatric intensive care unit, we compared outcomes before and after introducing a probiotic mix that included Saccharomyces boulardii.

Our findings indicated a significant reduction in both candidemia and candiduria among patients receiving probiotics. Specifically, candidemia rates dropped from 3.7% in the control group to just 1.2%, while candiduria decreased from 22% to 10.7%. Although there was no significant change in urinary tract infections, the results suggest that probiotics could help lower certain fungal infections in pediatric patients on antibiotics.

Essential recovery
A fantastic drug for digestive health and restoring microflora. I take it after illness or antibiotic use, and it quickly normalises my digestive tract. I recommend maintaining it in the medicine cabinet for digestive support.

Immediate relief provided
This probiotic consistently works wonders! Unlike others I've tried, which offered little, it effectively relieved gastrointestinal distress. I’ve noticed immediate results when taken alongside antibiotics, sorting out my indigestion promptly. The capsules are easy to swallow and long-lasting; I only take them when necessary, making them a reliable emergency aid!

Enhanced condition noted
After trying many pharmaceuticals, I discovered boulard, which significantly improved my gastrointestinal issues. Antibiotics failed to resolve inflammation, causing recurrent pathogenic bacteria. However, Boulard's action positively impacted my SIBO and inflammatory intestine conditions. It demonstrated good antimicrobial properties and effectively reduced toxins, as confirmed by my lab results. I combine it with aloe, slippery elm, and glutamine. Although it can be hard to find in stock, its effectiveness makes it worth the effort. I strive to share honest and valuable information!

Vacation must-have
This product was a lifesaver for my son with gastrointestinal issues. I took it on holiday to Turkey and ended up feeling unwell from food poisoning. Despite my scepticism, after one capsule, I felt better. I had to keep taking it regularly until I finished the jar, and I want to buy it again for my next trip. Highly recommend it!
