The human body is made up of 30 trillions of cells that make up our organs and an equal number of microorganisms that inhabit the mucous membranes and skin, constituting what is known as the Human Microbiome.
The microbiome is made up of microorganisms (microbiota) and their habitat (environment). It performs functions that we are not able to perform and synthesises substances essential for our health and well-being acting as the first line of defence against pathogenic infections.
When the ecosystem is in equilibrium (eubiosis) the organism is healthy. But when there is an imbalance (dysbiosis), certain pathogenic bacteria proliferate and diseases such as periodontitis, gingivitis or caries occur.
Oral dysbiosis can also be implicated in other diseases such as cardiovascular, intestinal disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, some cancers and even premature childbirth.
The YOTUEL microbiome product line cares for and protects oral microbiome with The Oral-Gut Connection® technology based on the prebiotics that act as nutrients for the oral microbiota and regulate the microbial growth. It also contains Saliactive® complex to further activate salivary barrier functions.
A clinical study of Yotuel formula demonstrates that in comparison to other commercial toothpastes, Yotuel’s formula achieved the best outcomes in patients with gum disease (gingivitis) resulting in reduced gum bleeding and an increase in salivary pH, successfully contributing to oral eubiosis.
