Mucin keeps your microbiome healthy, so your microbiome can keep you healthy
A new option for ailments afflicting billions of people—
Kapha Bio’s platform of ingredients for supporting human health is scientifically engineered to rebuild the body’s natural mucin layer when it gets compromised, and to restore balance to the microbiome.
MUCIN is the main component of the mucosal barrier that coats the internal surfaces of the body (mouth, gut, urogenital). It is a physical protective layer that also sustains a healthy microbiome, supporting beneficial organisms and regulating potential troublemakers.
Mucin can be weakened by aging, poor diet, environmental factors, and certain drugs. This damage leads to chronic dryness and dysbiosis—a state where your microbiome's healthy balance is disrupted. Without this vital shield, your body becomes vulnerable to inflammation and various conditions, ranging from gum disease and dry mouth to IBD, yeast infections, and bacterial vaginosis.
Kapha Bio’s pioneering KB-Biomucin™ is finely tuned to support the body’s native defense and restore natural lubrication.
Existing treatments for symptoms of dysbiosis don’t provide lasting relief, because without healthy mucin, the microbiome shifts out of balance again.
There is a clear need for effective treatments to help restore and maintain a healthy microbiome, allowing the body to defend itself from infection and reducing the need for antibiotics.
Our Technology—
Mucin has only recently been identified as an important target for human health and until now, there has been no way to supplement it due to its structural complexity.
The team at Kapha Bio has developed a simple, safe and cost-effective way to make a bio-similar, highly biocompatible mucin at commercial scale.
As additive ingredients, KB-Biomucins can can make a wide range of consumer products more effective by helping to lubricate mucosal surfaces and support a healthy microbiome.
