LYNSIDE® Probiotic Yeasts
According to the World Health Organization, probiotics are "living micro-organisms which, if consumed in sufficient quantities, have a beneficial effect on their host." They are particularly well-known for their digestive health benefits.
Probiotics have experienced tremendous growth over the past few years, and that trend is likely to continue, as they are one of the few dietary supplement and food ingredients that can create an immediate and noticeable difference in well-being.
Some of the most commonly used probiotics include the Lactobacillus and Bifidus species. Increasingly, however, manufacturers are learning about the benefits of probiotic yeasts. Lesaffre offers a family of proprietary probiotic yeasts with demonstrated health benefits.

LYNSIDE® PRO GI+
Features: Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856
Primary Benefit: Reduces gastro-intestinal discomfort
Usage: On-going
LYNSIDE® PRO GI+ is a patent-pending active dry yeast probiotic made from a proprietary strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae developed by Lesaffre.
Lesaffre has invested considerable resources into the study of this special strain over the past five years. It has been the subject of four preclinical trials (in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo) and a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled human clinical trial. Two more human clinical trials are underway and will be complete in 2011.
The results of the first clinical trial, conducted in 200 volunteers, showed that LYNSIDE® PRO GI+ significantly reduced gastro-intestinal discomfort within just four weeks of supplementation compared to placebo. After eight weeks, microflora balance was also improved, evidenced by substantial increases in populations of beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacteria and Bacteroides.
