Ther-Biotic ABx Support by SFI Health – Gut Microbiome Balance Probiotic
Ther-Biotic ABx Support capsules by SFI Health combine a probiotic yeast with three beneficial bacterial species for gut microbiome balance. This vegetarian formula provides 10 billion CFU per capsule and is intended for short-term probiotic support, including during and after antibiotic use with guidance from a healthcare professional.
Key Ther-Biotic ABx Support Benefits
- Supports a balanced intestinal microbial community when dietary changes or antibiotic use disrupt the usual gut environment.
- Helps maintain normal bowel function by supporting the beneficial microorganisms that participate in everyday intestinal activity.
- Supports immune health through a balanced gut ecosystem, combining probiotic yeast and beneficial bacteria for short-term reinforcement when needed.
How Ther-Biotic ABx Support Works
The gut is home to a community of microorganisms that interact with food and the intestinal lining. This formula brings together a yeast, Saccharomyces boulardii, and three bacterial species. The bacteria use carbohydrates as fuel; the yeast adds a different type of probiotic activity as it passes through the digestive tract. Together, they provide microbiome support without replacing the need for a varied diet or prescribed care.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Saccharomyces boulardii: A probiotic yeast that supports the intestinal microbial environment while passing through the gut. Unlike the bacterial ingredients, it belongs to the yeast family and provides temporary support rather than permanent residence in the intestine. It complements the formula’s bacterial species.
- Lactobacillus rhamnosus: A beneficial bacterium that uses carbohydrates to produce lactic acid. This fermentation is part of the normal activity of lactic-acid bacteria in the digestive tract and contributes to the chemical environment in which the gut’s microbial community lives.
- Bifidobacterium bifidum: A member of the intestinal microbial community with enzymes that break down complex sugars into smaller usable parts. This carbohydrate-processing role helps explain its place in a formula designed to reinforce beneficial gut bacteria, rather than acting as a digestive enzyme supplement.
- Bifidobacterium breve: Uses sugars as fuel through fermentation, a normal metabolic activity of bifidobacteria in the intestine. It adds another beneficial bacterial species to the blend, complementing Lactobacillus and the probiotic yeast without requiring all four organisms to perform the same role.
Ther-Biotic ABx Support Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking short-term support for their intestinal microbiome.
- People using antibiotics who have discussed probiotic use and timing with their healthcare professional.
- Travelers whose dietary changes affect their usual gut routine.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ther-Biotic ABx Support
What are the benefits of Ther-Biotic ABx Support?
Ther-Biotic ABx Support combines Saccharomyces boulardii with three beneficial bacterial species to support gut microbiome balance. Its short-term formula supports normal bowel function and the beneficial intestinal community that contributes to immune health. Each vegetarian capsule provides 10 billion CFU, including 5.0 billion CFU of the probiotic yeast alongside Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium breve. This yeast-and-bacteria combination offers a different composition from a bacteria-only probiotic. It is intended for temporary reinforcement, including during and after antibiotic use with professional guidance, rather than replacing prescribed care.
Who should take Ther-Biotic ABx Support?
Ther-Biotic ABx Support is formulated for people seeking short-term microbiome support, including during and after antibiotic use with professional guidance. It may also suit travelers whose dietary changes affect their gut routine. Adults: 1 capsule twice daily with meals or as directed by a healthcare professional.

Consult your physician if you are pregnant or nursing.
How does Ther-Biotic ABx Support support overall health?
Ther-Biotic ABx Support focuses on the intestinal microbial community rather than supplying vitamins or minerals. Its probiotic yeast and bacteria provide short-term microbiome support, helping maintain a gut environment involved in normal digestion, bowel function and immune activity. Lactobacillus rhamnosus produces lactic acid as it uses carbohydrates, while the two Bifidobacterium species also use sugars through fermentation. Saccharomyces boulardii adds a yeast component that passes through the intestine rather than becoming a permanent resident. These distinct microbial roles explain the combination without making it a substitute for a varied diet or prescribed medication.
