Every year, millions of children worldwide suffer from diarrhea and are at risk of dehydration.
According to the World Health Organization, diarrheal diseases are the second leading cause of death in children under the age of five. When they experience diarrhea, they lose water and electrolytes through vomit, sweat, urine, and liquid stools. If these losses do not get replenished, dehydration occurs. Furthermore, diarrhea is a significant cause of malnourishment, which can make the person more vulnerable to future diarrhea episodes and other illnesses.
Lynside® Pro S. boulardii CNCM I-3799 has showed beneficial effects in children diarrhea management.
Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast that provides numerous benefits to improve digestive health. It works by restoring and balancing gut bacteria, helping to alleviate diarrhea caused by factors such as antibiotics, infections, and stress. It has been shown to reduce the duration and severity of acute diarrhea.
Our own published clinical trial in 100 infants and children aged 3-36 months was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our unique probiotic yeast strain Lynside® Pro SCB S.boulardii CNCM I-3799 in the treatment of acute diarrhea in children.
The results of our study confirms boulardii CNCM I-3799 supplementation consistency with the scientific literature on saccharomyces boulardii benefits for digestive health.
