Probiotics for Diarrhea: Benefits, Types, and Side Effects
Written by Jillian Kubala, MS, RD on December 18, 2019
 https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/probiotics-for-diarrhea 

According to the latest scientific findings, the following types are
the most effective probiotic strains for treating diarrhea:

*   Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG(LGG): This probiotic is among the most
    commonly supplemented strains. Research shows that LGG is one of
    the most effective probiotics for treating diarrhea in both adults
    and children (6Trusted Source, 16Trusted Source).
*   Saccharomyces boulardii: S. boulardii is a beneficial strain of
    yeast that's commonly used in probiotic supplements. It has been
    shown to treat antibiotic-associated and infectious diarrhea
    (6Trusted Source, 17Trusted Source).
*   Bifidobacterium lactis: This probiotic has immune-boosting and
    gut-protective qualities and may significantly reduce the severity
    and frequency of diarrhea in children (18Trusted Source).
*   Lactobacillus casei: L. casei is another probiotic strain that
    has been studied for its anti-diarrheal benefits. Some studies
    suggest that it treats antibiotic-associated and infectious
    diarrhea in children and adults (19Trusted Source, 20Trusted Source).
