I believe there’s some benefit from boulardi yeast but I don’t know the reference except that it’s part of the bredeson protocol. Smells nice in a cleaning vinegar solution though.

The article mentions:

  In addition, similar to a previous report using a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease,56 the relative abundance of the pathobiont genera Desulfovibrio was significantly increased in Alzheimer’s patients compared to cognitively healthy control subjects
