Sapovirus is a genetically diverse genus of single-stranded positive-sense RNA, non-enveloped viruses within the Caliciviridae family. Together with norovirus, sapoviruses are the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis (commonly called the "stomach flu" although it is not related to influenza) in humans and other animals. It is a monotypic taxon, containing only one species, Sapporo virus.
Nutraceutical compositions and methods of their use in treating Caliciviridae family viruses are provided. The viruses can be norovirus or sapovirus. An exemplary nutraceutical composition includes Fagopyrum dibotrys extract. Another nutraceutical composition for treating viral gastroenteritis includes 5, 7, 3′, 4′-tetrahydroxyflavan-3-ol C4-C8 dimers, quercetin, rutin, or a combination thereof. The nutraceutical compositions inhibit or reduce entry of Caliciviridae family viruses into intestinal epithelial cells of the subject.
