In 1923, during an expedition in Southeast Asia, French microbiologist Henri Boulard made a chance discovery. He observed locals drinking a special tea made from the skins of two tropical fruits, litchis and mangosteens, to alleviate stomach problems, including diarrhea. Through his research, Boulard identified a yeast strain, Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745, as the key ingredient behind the tea's remarkable anti-diarrheal properties.
Years later, in 1953, Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745, also known as Bioflor®, was successfully introduced into commercial use.
Today, Bioflor® has become the gold standard in diarrhea management1,2 and is widely used in association with antibiotics and on various other occasions, making it the most-sold probiotic drug worldwide. It is suitable for individuals of all ages, from 3 months old and onwards.
