Restore your digestive equilibrium with Essential-Biotic® Saccharomyces Boulardii, a professional-grade probiotic yeast designed to support gastrointestinal resilience and immune defense. Unlike standard bacterial probiotics, Saccharomyces boulardii is a non-colonizing, acid-resistant yeast that survives the harsh journey through the stomach to provide targeted support where you need it most.
Whether you are navigating the digestive disruptions of travel, seeking to maintain floral balance during antibiotic use, or looking for daily microbiome support, this formula delivers 9 Billion CFU per serving of clinically researched, non-pathogenic yeast.
Key Features:
-
Resilient Gut Support: Naturally resistant to stomach acid and bile, ensuring the probiotic reaches the intestines in an active, functional state.
-
Antibiotic-Friendly: As a yeast-based probiotic, it is not affected by antibiotics, making it the ideal companion for maintaining gut health during and after medication cycles.
-
Immune System Modulation: Stimulates the production of Secretory IgA (sIgA), the body’s first line of defense in the intestinal lining.
-
Microbial Balance: Helps crowd out opportunistic organisms and supports the growth of beneficial "friendly" bacteria without permanently altering your native microbiome.
-
Travel Confidence: Widely used to support healthy bowel movements and prevent occasional "traveler’s diarrhea" caused by new environments or exotic foods.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does it need to be refrigerated?
While Allergy Research Group (ARG) uses a highly stable strain, they recommend refrigeration for long-term storage to maintain maximum potency (9 Billion CFU). However, it is shelf-stable enough for short-term heat exposure, making it perfectly safe to ship or carry in a suitcase while traveling.
Can I open the capsules?
Yes. If you have trouble swallowing capsules, you can open them and mix the powder into room-temperature water, juice, or applesauce. Avoid mixing it with very hot liquids, as high heat can kill the live yeast.
Are there any side effects?
Most people tolerate it very well. However, because it is active in the gut, some people may experience mild gas or bloating during the first few days as the microbiome begins to shift. This usually subsides quickly
