Essential Stacks Saccharomyces Boulardii Probiotic - 5 Billion CFU for Digestive Health (60 Capsules)

What Makes This Probiotic Different from Bacteria-Based Probiotics?

Most probiotics are bacteria, but Saccharomyces boulardii is a yeast. That's a game-changer. Yeast probiotics are naturally resistant to stomach acid and bile, so more of them survive to colonise your gut. They're also untouched by antibiotics, meaning you can take them alongside antibiotic therapy without them being wiped out. This makes Saccharomyces boulardii a top pick if you're on antibiotics or have a sensitive digestive system. It works nicely with bacteria-based probiotics, giving you broader gut support.

Key Benefits of This Probiotic Yeast

Saccharomyces boulardii helps keep your gut flora balanced, especially during stressful times or when you're taking antibiotics.* The yeast's tough cell wall lets it survive stomach acid and reach the intestines intact, where it supports your body's natural defence. For occasional digestive hiccups like traveller's diarrhoea or mild bloating, this probiotic may help restore gut harmony.* Its unique action makes it a great addition to any gut health routine.

What Is Saccharomyces Boulardii?

Saccharomyces boulardii is a special probiotic yeast, different from the usual bacteria-based ones. Originally found on lychee and mangosteen fruit, this helpful yeast has been studied for its role in digestive health, especially during antibiotic use or travel. Each capsule of Essential Stacks Saccharomyces Boulardii gives you 5 billion colony-forming units (CFUs) of the clinically studied strain Lynside® CNCM I-3799 (formerly DBVPG 6763). Unlike many probiotics that need the fridge, this yeast-based formula is shelf-stable, so it's perfect for daily use and travel. It's Non-GM, gluten free, dairy-free, and soy-free, suiting a range of diets.

How to Use for Optimal Gut Health
