Pharmax’s Pyloricin is specifically for use against Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium implicated in over 60% of stomach and duodenal ulcers and at least 20% of stomach cancers. The product is remarkably active in inhibiting and killing H. pylori cells, which can be found as an asymptomatic ‘commensal’ in up to 65% of individuals.
Pyloricin is a combination of the freeze-dried concentrates of the essential oils of oregano, clove, ginger and wormwood. The oils have been micellised by the MicroCelle process prior to freeze-drying to enhance dispersion in the stomach, enabling more effective contact of the Pyloricin actives with the H. pylori cells. Dispersion of liquid oils is far less effective. Pyloricin can be used in conjunction with other Pharmax Plant Antimicrobials for broader spectrum activity.
