The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-3750) in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis.
Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-3750) and provide patient-reported and physician scored measures of their colitis. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-3750) on fecal levels will also be measured.

- Drug: R-3750
Probiotic
- To assess the tolerability of R-3750 [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]To assess the number of participants with treatment-realated adverse events after taking R-3750 (probiotic)
- Clinical Response based on Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Scores [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]To assess the number of participants that show improvements in the ulcerative colitis disease severity by collecting IBDQ. The scores are based on a numbering system from one (1) to seven (7) where seven (7) is the least about of trouble with your bowels and one (1) is the most. The numbers are totaled to provide a total score from 32 to 224. Where 32 is a better outcome and 224 is a worse outcome. This is compared from the beginning and again at different times to see if there are any changes to your microbiome before and after taking R-3750 (probiotic).
