Is saccharomyces turicensis good for people with IBS?

Saccharomyces turicensis can be high or low in FODMAPs depending on the serving size. For those managing IBS or SIBO during the elimination phase, it’s recommended to stick to smaller, safer portions, limit medium portions, and avoid large ones in a single meal. Allow adequate time between meals to support digestive processing and minimize potential IBS symptom triggers.
