Key Takeaways
- Scientific evidence: A 2015 meta-analysis showed that SB reduced the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea from 18.7% to 8.5%.
- Unique probiotic yeast: SB is a probiotic yeast that survives stomach acid and resists antibiotics.
- Multi faceted: SB works through:
- modulating gut flora and neutralising toxins
- supporting the gut lining and reducing inflammation
- boosting enzymatic secretions and aiding intestinal recovery.
