It promotes the health of the intestinal tract, helps to encourage healthy gut flora balance, and supports a balanced inflammatory response. Saccharomyces boulardii has also been shown to support proper gastrointestinal function during a disruption to the normal balance of gut flora.* It can be taken alone or in combination with other probiotic strains of beneficial mircroorganisms.
