BENEFITS

Imagine indulging in your favorite meals without the fear of digestive distress. Villicote® gently restores the mucin layer of your intestines, shielding you from irritation and discomfort. With each meal enjoyed in comfort, you can embrace a renewed sense of emotional well-being.

How it works:
The gastrointestinal tract is an extraordinary organ, sustained by mucin. Despite stomach acidity and intestinal bacteria, mucin's protein-carbohydrate structure shields the stomach from acid damage and prevents bacterial intrusion. N-Acetylglucosamine is a vital building block for mucin's carbohydrate structures, supporting its protective role and contributing to mucin's composition.

Visualize a life where sharing meals with loved ones becomes a joyous occasion.Villicote® works to rebuild gut integrity, giving you the freedom to relish food without hesitation. Experience the emotional liberation that comes with nurturing your gut health.

How it works:
Villicote® brand of N-Acetylglucosamine helps restore gut integrity by providing the basic building blocks for the production of complex carbohydrate structures (glycans) that give mucin its protective qualities. Mucin production can be adversely impacted by commonly used medications such as pain medications and anti-inflammatories. Villicote® helps overcome the negative impact of other medications.

The Mucin Pathway of Villicote®

The graphic, The Mucin Pathway, illustrates how the human body makes mucin from glucose.

The pathway graphic consists of three columns.

The main or central column illustrates the various molecular steps that lead to N-Acetylglucosamine and its derivative N-Acetylgalactosamine. The right-hand column lists the names of the various molecules along the pathway and the important enzymes that transform glucose at each step. The left-hand column shows the two small molecules that are added to the glucose derivatives to form the higher molecular weight molecules in the pathway.

Along the bottom is a cartoon of a mucin molecule. Mucin has a protein backbone that accounts for about 20% of the molecular weight. From the backbone are carbohydrate or glycan structures that make up about 80% of the molecule.

The circle to the right shows the linker molecule N-Acetylgalactosamine bound to the protein backbone. N-Acetylglucosamine is the source of
N-Acetylgalactosamine and is essential for the formation of complex glycan structures.

Additional modification steps (not shown) incorporate sialic acid (an N-Acetylglucosamine derivative), galactose (a glucose epimer), fucose and sulphate molecules. These molecules bound to the protein backbone combine with water and give mucin its viscoelastic properties.

It is this layer that provides protection for the gut lining throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

Helped

I was in the middle of a UC flare and in a bit of pain. I started taking this and the pain subsided as did some of the inflammation! Will continue and see how it goes :)

I just started using this as per my doctor's request. I have to say, it doesn't leave a bad taste, it's easy to stir in water and drink. No taste at all actually.

I've tried many supplements for IBD, but Wellesley's Villicote stands out. I've experienced a significant reduction in inflammation and discomfort since incorporating it into my daily life.
