No fridge required, which is the practical difference between this and most probiotics. Saccharomyces boulardii is a yeast rather than a bacterium, naturally tolerant of heat and stomach acid, so a bottle can sit in a bathroom cupboard through summer or ride in a suitcase without losing potency.
Each capsule provides 5 billion CFU of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii) - one organism, no blend. People commonly take it while travelling, through a bout of digestive upset, or alongside medications that unsettle the usual balance.
The exclusion list is long and worth reading if you buy around allergies: no added wheat, sulfites, gluten, lupin, animal products, fish, shellfish, mollusc, milk products, eggs, tree nuts, sesame seeds, soy bean products, lactose, maize or corn products, and no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. It does contain yeast, sugars and residual sodium. The capsules are vegetarian and easy to swallow, taken with or without food.
Sixty capsules to a pack, which makes it the value size for a household rather than a short trial - two months at one a day, or a month if two people are taking it through the same trip.
