This is what cured my C. Diff
If you're looking up Saccharomyces Boulardii, you may be currently trying to fight Clostridium Difficile Colitis (C. Diff).
About a month ago, I was too. I'm only 25 and was taking Clindamycin after my oral surgery in May. The C. diff stemmed from this antibiotic; I'm certain. I rushed to an urgent care clinic when I first tested positive. I was given Flagyl, but got sick again. It worsened, and I ended up in the emergency room twice throughout the summer of 2017. I was finally referred to a GI Specialist. I was put on liquid Vancomycin (again), but he also recommended I find a probiotic with this very specific yeast in it. At this point, I was doubtful anything could save me. But I gave it a shot. I read some Yale studies on its success rate in killing C. Diff and immediately ordered this. While taking the Vancomycin and drinking a Synergy kombucha every day (which also contains this special yeast), I took one of these probiotics in the morning and one at night.
Last week, I had a colonoscopy and was nearly in tears when my GI doctor said there's no trace of C. Diff in my intestines. Needless to say, I plan to take this probiotic every day for the rest of my life.
I wouldn't wish C. Diff on my worst enemy. And if you're like me, and are struggling to get rid of it, consider ordering this probiotic. And remember, you're not alone in this fight. You WILL get better.
