Benefits of Probiotics with Chronic Sinusitis | Erik Galuppo with Dr. Christine Schaffner

On This Episode

Studies using modern state-of-the-art methods (such as genetic sequencing) find that people with chronic sinusitis have a different sinus microbiome than healthy people without sinusitis. They have fewer bacterial species and an abundance of some other species. 

In this Episode of Spectrum of Health, Dr. Christine Schaffner sits down with Erik Galuppo, the co-founder of Lanto Health, to discuss the sinus microbiome,  chronic sinus issues, and the benefits of taking nasal probiotics to alleviate their suffering. They also discuss the future of sinus probiotics and understanding the human microbiome.

Erik Galuppo is an entrepreneur with a recent focus on health and wellness. Eric, along with his brother, Adam. grew up battling chronic sinusitis. For 25 years, the brothers experimented with all types of antibiotics, special diets, and even sinus surgery.

The Galuppo brothers took to the internet for a better solution. They came across research suggesting that a keystone bacteria called Lactobacillus sakei is found naturally in healthy sinuses and was being used experimentally for sinus issues. Lactobacillus sakei (also known as L. sakei) is also found naturally in fermented kimchi. They first concocted their formulas using kimchi from local grocery stores and were amazed by the results. Their sinuses instantly felt healthier.

Episode Highlights:

  • Erik and his brother Adam’s history with chronic sinusitis and their journey to founding Lanton Health 
  • Symptoms of Chronic Sinus issues
  • The importance of taking a nasal probiotic like Lactobacillus sakei
  • The future of the Microbiome in health care

About Erik Galuppo 

Lanto Health Founders Erik and Adam Galuppo grew up battling chronic sinusitis. For 25 years, they experimented with all types of antibiotics, special diets, and even sinus surgery.

The Galuppo brothers took to the internet for a better solution. They came across research suggesting that a keystone bacteria called Lactobacillus sakei is found naturally in healthy sinuses and was being used experimentally for sinus issues. Lactobacillus sakei (also known as L. sakei) is also found naturally in fermented kimchi. They first concocted their formulas using kimchi from local grocery stores and were amazed by the results. Their sinuses instantly felt healthier.

And so, they set out to bring their natural and effective sinus solution to the masses. “We made it our mission to create a reliable and pure health sinus probiotic to help the millions of people struggling with sinus issues,” said Founder Erik Galuppo. And Lanto Health was born.
