About DiarSafe
DiarSafe contains pure Saccharomyces boulardii, a natural and safe probiotic yeast with extensive scientific research and documentation on its benefits in supporting bowel health, comfort and function.
S. boulardii has been internationally acclaimed as the number one probiotic for diarrhoea - to reduce discomfort and urgency and restore regular bowel movements.
DiarSafe extra strength S. boulardii is a natural probiotic food supplement and NOT an antidiarrhoeal or anti-motility medicine – it will not artificially reduce the muscular contractions of the intestine to stop diarrhoea. It is a completely natural probiotic food supplement offering support for bowel health and comfort.
How does DiarSafe work?
Saccharomyces boulardii – a unique probiotic yeast which is sold widely in the US, Scandinavia, Germany & France. S. boulardii has undergone extensive clinical research proving its ability to flush out pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli and salmonella and to have therapeutic benefits against diarrhoea.
DTECTA guarantees 5 billion live micro-organisms per DiarSafe vegetarian capsule until the best before date.
Background Information
Diarrhoea can be defined as an increase in the frequency and amount of loose stools. It can be caused by a virus or bacteria – usually due to the ingestion of contaminated drinking water, undercooked meat and eggs or poor standards of hygiene. If these situations occur, the body’s reaction is twofold - Introduce large amounts of water into the large intestines, and make the intestines more active by contracting frequently and irregularly, in order to flush out irritable micro-organisms, which results in diarrhoea.

What Are Probiotics?
Billions of health-promoting friendly bacteria naturally reside in our intestinal tract. These friendly bacteria are collectively known as probiotics - meaning “for life” - and are essential for our digestive health and natural immune systems. Probiotics maintain digestive health and comfort by digesting particular substances in the diet and by enabling efficient nutrient and mineral absorption.
Seen here are microscopic photographs of "friendly" bacterial strains, Bifidobacteria, Bifidobacteria longum and Bifidobacteria bifidum lining the intestines.
Probiotics support immunity by stimulating the body’s natural defences and by lining the intestines with a protective layer of friendly bacteria that bars harmful substances in the gut from entering the body.
A normal healthy gut has a good balance of friendly probiotic bacteria over bad pathogenic bacteria; however, this balance is fragile and disruptions are common, particularly by factors such as stress, dietary habits, environment, medication (e.g. antibiotics) and ageing.
1. Friendly bacteria or Probiotics (shown as clear) form a protective barrier for pathogen (shown as dark) defense by lining the mucosal cells of the gut. 2. Unfriendly bacteria (Invasive Pathogens) lay in wait to invade the mucosal cells in the gut. Pathogens can then infect other areas and organs, lower the immune system and be detremental to overall intestinal health.
Disruptions to the balance of friendly bacteria in our gut can compromise the Digestive and Protective roles they play and lead to poor digestion, lowered natural immunity and conditions such as diarrhoea, constipation, excessive gas, bloating and thrush (yeast infections).
Medical studies show that replenishing the gut with probiotics is a natural way towards a healthy lifestyle.
