How does Vicosa® work?
How does Vicosa® work?
Vicosa® contains Latilactobacillus sakei, a probiotic that helps restore a healthy balance of bacteria in the sinuses. It also supports skin and sinus health by calming overactive immune responses, which are common in sinusitis and eczema, and reducing the presence of pathogens in the body
What is Latilactobacillus sakei? How does it support sinus health?
What is Latilactobacillus sakei? How does it support sinus health?
A beneficial probiotic found naturally in foods like kimchi and used in food preservation, Latilactobacillus sakei is renowned for its antibacterial properties. It's known to survive well in tough conditions, like cold and acidic environments, making it ideal for supporting the body’s microbiome.
People with chronic sinus issues often have lower levels of Latilactobacillus sakei in their sinus microbiome. Reintroducing it through food or nutritional supplements like Vicosa® can help restore balance, reduce inflammation, and improve sinus symptoms naturally.
What do you mean by “sinus microbiome”?
What do you mean by “sinus microbiome”?
The sinus microbiome refers to the community of bacteria that lives in your sinuses. Like the gut, a healthy sinus microbiome is essential to ward off infections and keep inflammation at bay. When the balance of bacteria in your sinuses is disrupted because of illness, antibiotics, or allergens, you may experience sinus issues. Taking Vicosa® consistently may help rebalance your sinus microbiome and address unwanted symptoms naturally!
Can Vicosa® help with eczema too?
Can Vicosa® help with eczema too?
Yes! Thanks to the Latilactobacillus sakei in Vicosa®, people experiencing symptoms of eczema can find relief too. Studies have shown that Latilactobacillus sakei can reduce atopic dermatitis (eczema) symptoms, especially in children, by reducing allergic reactions through immune cell regulation. It also contributes to suppressing the growth of harmful bacteria to ease eczema symptoms.

How does Vicopyl® work?
How does Vicopyl® work?
Vicopyl® contains Pylopass™, a patented strain of Limosilactobacillus reuteri that uses a unique “hook-and-remove” mechanism to target Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a common stomach bacterium linked to ulcers and inflammation.
By binding to H. pylori and helping clear it from the body without disturbing the balance of healthy gut bacteria, Vicopyl® helps improve symptoms such as nausea, bad breath, loss of appetite, abdominal discomfort, acid reflux, and bloating as well as improve gut health.
What is Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)?
What is Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)?
H. pylori is a type of bacteria found in the stomach. It is a major cause of gastritis and stomach ulcers due to its tendency to attack the stomach lining. It is incredibly common, with some studies showing that up to 50% of people globally may carry it, often without exhibiting symptoms! H. pylori has also been classified as a cancer-causing agent since 1994.
How do people get infected with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)?
How do people get infected with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)?
It usually spreads through saliva or contaminated food, water, or utensils. The spread of H. pylori infection is common especially within families or in shared living spaces. Many people are exposed during childhood and carry the bacteria, but do not experience symptoms until years later.
What makes Vicopyl® a better alternative to antibiotics?
What makes Vicopyl® a better alternative to antibiotics?
Taking a course of antibiotics often produces side effects like diarrhea or taste changes. Antibiotic treatments are also untargeted, meaning they often destroy good bacteria along with the bad, leaving your body more susceptible and vulnerable.
Vicopyl® offers a natural, targeted approach that supports H. pylori removal without side effects or contributing to antibiotic resistance. It’s also safe for long-term use and prevention.
Can I take Vicopyl® with antibiotics?
Can I take Vicopyl® with antibiotics?
Yes. Vicopyl® is safe to take alongside antibiotic treatments. Additionally, it can help reduce side effects of the antibiotic treatment for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection on the gastrointestinal tract, such as diarrhea, nausea, and abdominal pain.
It may even be helpful to take Vicopyl® before starting your antibiotic treatment. Since there is a chance of reinfection after completing your course of antibiotics, taking Vicopyl® is a safe and effective way to support your ongoing stomach health and reduce the chance of recurrence.
Is it the same thing as taking probiotics?
Is it the same thing as taking probiotics?
Not quite. While both support gut health, Vicopyl® uses Limosilactobacillus reuteri bacteria, a common probiotic, that has been inactivated. This makes it shelf-stable, and improves its ability to withstand the acidic environment of the stomach, yet without losing effectiveness. It also specifically targets H. pylori without affecting the rest of your gut microbiome.
How do I properly store Vicopyl?
