Florastor was shown to inhibit approximately 50% of the water and sodium secretion. The bacterium C. Diff. produces two different toxins that have shown an up to 1,000-fold reduction in mice that are treated with Florastor.

Can C diff be cured with probiotics?

Because of the current FDA regulations for dietary supplements, you should not find any probiotics in the US claiming to treat or cure C. difficile infections.

Will Florastor help C diff?

"Because Florastor S . boulardii is a yeast and not a bacteria, it is not killed by the strong antibiotics that are being used to kill the C. diff bacteria, so it survives in the digestive tract," says Dr. Raymond.
