Capibiome rebalances the entire microbiota (bacteriobiota and mycobiota) to soothe irritated scalp and reduce dandruff .
The microbiota of the scalp mainly consists of the well-known yeast Malassezia and a bacterial population dominated by Propionibacteria. These two populations then interact with each other. Scientists stress that the appearance of dandruff is correlated to an imbalance in these 2 ecosystems.
Capibiome has been designed to:
1- Soothe sensitive and irritated scalp. It contains lavender floral water which can activate the release of soothing molecules – beta-endorphins. It possesses anti-inflammatory properties: 30% protection against the release of inflammatory mediator PGE2.
2- Rebalance the bacterial ecosystem and the population of Malassezia. First of all it contains an exopolysaccharide known for optimising communication between micro-organisms. Then amino acids of marine origin including lysine, which has a beneficial effect on the bacterial microbiome to restore the health of the scalp.
