The science

Your gut is your first line of defense.

After 40, the microbiome takes longer to bounce back from new water, new food, and a long flight. vivagut is built around that reality — not around it.

70%

of your immune system lives in your gut.

40%

of U.S. travelers to Mexico report digestive issues during their trip.

3×

more clinically-studied strains per dose vs. standard probiotics.

0

added sugar, gluten, dairy, or artificial fillers.

How it works

Cover the whole journey.

A daily rhythm built around real travel days, not pristine lab conditions.

01

Prepare before you fly

Start Prepare five days before your flight. It primes your microbiome with strains shown to support resilience to new water and unfamiliar food.

prepare
02

Shield while you're there

One capsule each morning of your trip. Dosed for the realities of Mexico — ice in drinks, ceviche on the beach, late dinners, long days in the sun.

03

Recover when you're home

Take Recover for five days after you land. Sleep returns, digestion settles, and you don't lose your first week back to feeling off.

Why vivagut

Built for the way Americans actually travel to Mexico.

Cabo, Cancún, CDMX, Tulum, Puerto Vallarta — and any trip you don't want to leave to chance.

a

Tuned for Mexico

Dosed for the actual exposures of a Mexico trip — different water, different bacterial profiles, longer meals. Not a generic “travel” formula.

b

Made for travelers 40+

The microbiome bounces back more slowly with age. The system is sized to give you a real margin — not just enough to survive day three.

c

Carry-on ready

Three compact, TSA-friendly bottles in three colors so you always grab the right phase. Lives happily next to your passport.

d

Plain language, real science

Clinically-studied strains, transparent dosing, no detoxes, no miracle claims. We say what's in it and what it does — nothing more.

FAQ

The honest answers.

Don't see your question? Email hello@vivagut.us — a real person reads every one.

I've been to Mexico before and been fine. Do I really need this?
Most travelers get lucky once or twice. That isn't the same as being protected — and after 40, the gut is slower to recover when something does go wrong. Think of vivagut like sunscreen: you don't skip it because you didn't burn last summer.
I'm staying at an all-inclusive resort. Is the water still an issue?
Yes — even at well-run resorts, the bacterial profile of the local water and produce is different from what your gut is used to at home. Ice in drinks, salads, fresh fruit, and pool-side ceviche are common sources of mild discomfort.
How is this different from the daily probiotic I already take?
Daily probiotics are formulated for one steady environment — yours, at home. vivagut is dosed in three phases for three different jobs: priming before the trip, shielding during, and resetting after.
When exactly do I start taking it?
Start Prepare 5 days before your flight. Take one Shield each morning of your trip. Start Recover the day you fly home and continue for 5 days.
How fast does it ship? My trip is soon.
U.S. orders ship within 1 business day from our Texas warehouse and typically arrive in 2–4 days. If your trip is closer than that, choose expedited shipping at checkout.

Mexico, covered.

Your next trip deserves a gut that can keep up. Start Prepare five days before you fly — order today and beat your departure date.
