Frequently Asked Questions
How is Saccharomyces boulardii different from other probiotics? Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast while most probiotics are bacteria. As a probiotic yeast, S. boulardii is less susceptible to chemicals that can harm regular probiotics.
Does Saccharomyces boulardii contain maltodextrin?: None of the Four Leaf Rover products or ingredients contain maltodextrin. Maltodextrin is a partially hydrolysed sugar that is ultra-processed, provides no nutritional value and carries the highest glycemic index of any other food. Four Leaf Rover make sure all of their ingredients are free of all dextrins so they can always support a healthy immune system and gut environment.
Should I store Saccharomyces boulardii in the fridge? Four Leaf Rover recommend keeping all Four Leaf Rover products in the fridge to maintain freshness. But if space is limited, you can store Saccharomyces boulardii in a cool, dark place.
Can Saccharomyces boulardii cause yeast problems??: Since S. boulardii is a probiotic yeast, people mistakenly assume it can cause or worsen yeast problems. This isn't true as it is a probiotic, non-colonising yeast species closely related to Brewer's yeast and not related to the yeast group to which the pathogenic Candida belongs.
Can I give Saccharomyces boulardii if my dog is on antibiotics?: Four Leaf Rover believe you should give your dog this probiotic yeast when your dog is on antibiotics.
How is Saccharomyces boulardii different than Pro-biome? Pro-biome is the everyday approach to maintaining a healthy gut lining with added clay to naturally support the detoxification pathways. Probiotic yeast are less susceptible to antibiotic damage, making Saccharomyces boulardii the perfect choice when your dog is on antibiotics.
Is Saccharomyces boulardii a natural part of my dog's gut flora?: Yes! S. boulardii is a normal part of the intestinal flora. One study showed that S. boulardii levels are higher in patients with unbalanced gut flora due to antibiotic use.
How quickly does Saccharomyces boulardii work? Studies show that S. boulardii can populate within half an hour when given orally and steady state concentrations are achieved within 3 days. S. boulardii also stays in the gut for 3-5 days, which is much longer than most probiotics.
