Jarrow Formulas Saccharomyces Boulardii + MOS
by Jarrow Formulas
"Clinically studied yeast probiotic with MOS prebiotic — 5 billion CFU for traveler's diarrhea, antibiotic support, and gut health"
Overview
Jarrow Formulas Saccharomyces Boulardii + MOS combines the clinically studied probiotic yeast S. boulardii (5 billion CFU) with MOS (mannan-oligosaccharides) prebiotic from yeast cell walls. S. boulardii is unique among probiotics because it's a beneficial yeast, not a bacteria, meaning it's naturally resistant to antibiotics and can be taken alongside antibiotic therapy. It's one of the most researched probiotics for preventing traveler's diarrhea and antibiotic-associated diarrhea.
