Yeasts as eukaryotes do have a more diverse enzymatic profile than lactic acid bacteria. They provide protection against pathogenic bacteria and toxic compounds by surface binding. Saccharomyces boulardii, a non-pathogenic yeast, has been used both as a preventative and therapeutic agent for the treatment of a variety of diarrheal diseases. Experimental studies clearly demonstrate that Saccharomyces boulardii has specific probiotic properties, and recent data has opened the door for new therapeutic uses of this yeast. Today, a considerable number of pharmaceutical preparations (capsules, powders, tables, pellets) containing probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii cells are commercially available, and they marketed mainly via pharmacies. Also, the application of the Saccharomyces boulardii as a probiotic microorganism seems promising especially in milk and yoghurt, the production of amounts of alcohol and gas formation, however, are for the moment major problem.
