Ironically on of the probiotics taken by people with IBD is Florastor which is actually Saccharomyces boulardii — YEAST!!! I always suspected it aggravated bowel disease. Maybe it's useful in healthy people (???) but I wouldn't take it.

I used to take that very probiotic, and as I had no colon issues, it’s yeast never affected me.

My understanding is that S. boulardii can actually kill and control Candida.
