About
Lynside® Pro SCB is a proprietary, patented probiotic yeast strain used in nutraceutical applications, developed by Lesaffre for digestive and immune health support, including compatibility with antibiotic therapy.
Key Benefits:
• Registered strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii CNCM I-3799, backed by an extensive clinical research programme spanning several decades
• Positioned for digestive health support: acute diarrhea in children, occasional traveler’s diarrhea, and gut microbiota support during antibiotic-associated digestive disruption
• Eukaryotic yeast structure: naturally unaffected by antibiotic treatment, allowing simultaneous intake without loss of efficacy
• Naturally resistant to gastric acid and bile salts, no protective encapsulation required
• No colonization effect: transient action, cleared from the gastrointestinal tract within 3 to 5 days after discontinuation, preserving the native gut microbiota balance
• US GRAS and EU QPS status, non-GMO, gluten-free, lactose-free, suitable for Kosher, Halal, vegetarian and vegan diets
• Superior stability: 3 to 5 years at ambient temperature, available in rod-shape (vermicelli) and powder formats
• Recommended dosage: approximately 5 billion CFU/day (200 to 250 mg)
• Produced by Gnosis by Lesaffre and distributed by Safic-Alcan
Typical Applications:
Saccharomyces boulardii / probiotic yeast for antibiotic-compatible formulations, digestive health, travel wellness, and immune support product lines. Suitable for capsules and sachets. Complementary ingredient for gut-health and immune-support ranges, including combination formulas with prebiotic yeast fractions or bacterial probiotic strains.

Probiotic Yeast for Gut and Immune Health
Lynside® S. boulardii is a proprietary, patented probiotic yeast strain, registered by Lesaffre as Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii CNCM I-3799. Backed by over 70 clinical studies and more than 65 years of documented use, it is recognised as one of the most extensively researched probiotic yeasts, positioned within the digestive and immune health segment of the nutraceutical market.
As a yeast-based probiotic, Lynside® S. boulardii differs structurally from bacterial probiotics: its eukaryotic cell wall confers natural resistance to gastric acid and bile salts, allowing it to reach the intestine without protective encapsulation. Unlike bacterial strains, it remains fully active during antibiotic therapy, since antibiotics target bacterial cell functions that the yeast does not share. Its action is transient rather than colonizing, clearing from the gastrointestinal tract within 3 to 5 days after intake stops, supporting the gut’s natural microbial balance without permanent implantation.
Lynside® S. boulardii is manufactured to consistent quality standards, is Non-GMO, gluten-free, lactose-free, and suitable for Kosher, Halal, vegetarian and vegan formulations, with a shelf life of 3 to 5 years at ambient temperature, among the most stable probiotic yeasts on the market. Available in rod-shape (vermicelli) and powder formats, it integrates readily into capsules and sachets.
Falling within the Probiotics & Postbiotics category, Lynside® S. boulardii is positioned as a science-backed, single-strain yeast ingredient for manufacturers developing digestive health, antibiotic-compatible, and immune support nutraceutical formulations.
