The Phyto-V study (Covid and Post Covid)

05/01/2023

This study evaluated whether improving gut health with the probiotic / prebiotic blend called  Yourgutplus+ could shorten the severity of a covid-19 infection. It also tested  whether an additional natural phytochemical rich food supplement, (now referred to as Phyto-v, named after the trial) could further enhance recovery and prevention of chronic symptoms. In this scientific trial, which completed in Autumn 2021, participants did not know if they received a placebo or the real supplement. Likewise the doctors and research staff and statisticians did not know which arm participant was randomised – this ensured the trial was unbiased and scientifically robust.

with this conclusion:

5. Conclusions

In conclusion, intake of this blend of probiotics and prebiotics appears to influence the severity and persistence of symptoms post COVID-19 infection, a finding which supports other recently published studies that have also reported beneficial roles for similar Lactobacillus probiotics. In addition, we believe our study is one of the first to report an additional benefit for patients with symptomatic post-COVID-19 infection for this safe, low-cost phytochemical rich nutritional intervention.
