Yeast-based Probiotic for Gut Health
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of a yeast-based dietary supplement on gastrointestinal, mental, and skin health. Yeasts are naturally present on fruits and plants, and are used to bake bread, beer and wine. Some of these yeasts are commonly consumed and may actually benefit your gut health. The supplemental yeast could strengthen the gut lining or help good bacteria in the gut grow better.
In this study, the investigators will look at how two doses of a yeast-based supplement impacts gut health, bowel movement consistency, and mental health. The study will last 17 weeks and consist of 7 clinic visits (1 screening visit and 6 test visits).
