AboutĀ Saccharomyces boulardii
S. boulardiiĀ is a special probiotic thatās a strain of yeast, not bacteria. Studies haveĀ shownĀ thatĀ S. boulardiiĀ is safe and effective for cats and dogs, and that it can prevent and reduce diarrhea from multiple causes. It also has anti-inflammatory properties. As aĀ probiotic, it is especially helpful for regrowing gut microbe populations that have become imbalanced, and for promoting healthyĀ skin.
Unlike bacterial probiotics,Ā S. boulardiiĀ isnāt affected by antibiotics, so it can also be used during antibiotic treatment to help with the digestive side effects that antibiotics often cause. Studies have shown that whenĀ S. boulardiiĀ is given along with an antibiotic, pets are much less likely to develop diarrhea as a result of the medication.
S. boulardiiĀ is also resilient to stomach acid, so when it reaches the intestines, itās still intact and alive, while many bacterial probiotics die in the stomach and never make it to the gut. Once in the gut,Ā S. boulardiiĀ produces friendly compounds called short-chain fatty acids, which support a diverse microbiome, a strong gut barrier, and a well-functioning immune system.
About Fructooligosaccharides (FOS)
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are tiny, soluble fibers. The raw material from which the FOS in ourĀ S. boulardiiĀ + FOS is produced is Non-GMO beet sugar. These particular fibers are prebiotic, meaning that they are the preferred food of beneficial microbes like the ones in your petās gut. Making sure all the beneficial members of the gut microbiome have enough of the right food is crucial not just for healthy digestion but also for a strong immune system, healthy skin, and even a happy mood. Studies in dogs have shown that supplementation with FOS improves both gut health and immune function.
