Jarrow Formulas Saccharomyces Boulardii + MOS
Jarrow Formulas Saccharomyces Boulardii + MOS is a probiotic yeast food supplement in vegetarian capsules. It combines Saccharomyces boulardii, a beneficial yeast, with MOS (mannanoligosaccharides), making it a little different from the usual bacteria-based probiotics.
Key features
- Probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii
- The strain survives its passage through stomach acid to reach the intestinal tract
- Helps keep a normal balance of intestinal microflora
- Includes MOS, an oligosaccharide taken from the cell walls of S. cerevisiae
- Vegetarian capsules in three sizes
Because S. boulardii is a yeast rather than a bacterium, it is often chosen for times when the gut flora may be disrupted, such as travel or while taking certain medicines. MOS is a complex sugar from yeast cell walls that can make it harder for bacteria to attach to the gut lining. The 30-capsule pack is handy for trips.
Available in 30 vcaps, 90 vcaps and 180 vcaps.
