The Incredible Gut Helper

From eNewsletter 8/3/2026

DID YOU KNOW that among the many systemic benefits of saccharomyces boulardii, a recent study from Burns and Trauma found it helpful for severe pancreatitis?

Patients with severe acute pancreatitis were randomized to S. boulardii (a beneficial yeast) plus enteral nutrition versus enteral nutrition alone. The rationale was that infections in these patients are frequently driven by impaired intestinal barrier function that facilitates bacterial translocation.

S. boulardii combined with enteral nutrition reduced infections and stabilized intestinal and respiratory microbiota composition while enteral nutrition alone did not.

For those of you who may not know, the main ingredient in UltraFlora Acute Care is S. boulardii. It is the most universally helpful gut supplement we recommend.

Another study from Nutrition Reviews found that L-theanine with caffeine can be beneficial for cognitive and mood outcomes.

Significant reductions were observed in levels of IL-6, IL-1β, and TNFα compared to controls. In multiple sclerosis patients, the probiotics group demonstrated greater improvements in hs-CRP.

The authors purport that because autoimmune diseases usually start in the gastrointestinal tract, balancing the microbiome would in turn help reduce immune dysfunction and lower inflammatory activity.
