Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for a chewing-gum based mitigation of virus-related disease spread and pre-immunity activation based on disruption of syntrophic methanogenic processes in the oral-, shared oronasal and orotracheal microbiome. The invention provides a chewing gum composition comprising a methylotrophic yeast, preferably Komagataella phaffii; a plant lectin, preferably phytohaemagglutinin; and/or iron particles, preferably zero-valent iron particles.
