The impact of Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 in gastrointestinal immune responses

Did you know that at least 80% of the body’s Ig-producing cells are located in the gut? Experimental and clinical studies have shown that strong immunity is mostly linked to a highly diverse gut microbiota. In this video Prof. Guarner (Professor of gastroenterology at University Hospital Vall D’hebron, Barcelona, Spain) discusses how probiotics, including Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 have an impact on mucosal immunity. They may interact with intestinal epithelial cells in different ways and are recognized by intestinal mucosal immune cells as non-harmful foreigners. Clinical studies have demonstrated the immunomodulatory effects of Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 as well as its capacity to increase short-chain fatty acids in patients confirming its potential impact on gastrointestinal immune responses. ***** - Subscribe to our channel: - Visit Saccharomyces boulardii website: h
