Over the past few decades, we are realizing that not only is our gut home to a microbiome, but other organs and tissues have their own microbiomes, such as our skin, eyes, and lungs to name a few.

First, there were probiotics, then prebiotics, and recently we have found a new addition, Postbiotics.

Over the past two decades, we have seen an increase in the incidence of epidemics and pandemics such as SARS in Asia, Ebola in West Africa, seasonal flu, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This has driven a heightened awareness of the need for products that can help protect and shield ourselves and our families from infection.

Antibiotics can cure a range of bacterial infections, however, with our growing knowledge of the benefits of good gut bacteria researchers have asked the question, “what is the impact of antibiotics on our gut bacteria population?”

Many people are exposed to food-borne pathogens each day when they consume contaminated food or drinks. Some people, like the elderly or very young, are more susceptible. Research suggests that some people, like those with a very healthy gut microbiome, are better able to fight off the opportunistic parasite, bacteria or viruses we accidentally ingest.

Getting older has advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, we get more leisure time to enjoy life, but on the other, there are many health challenges. At SuperBio we are committed to preventing a common health challenge for those over 50 - an unhealthy gut microbiome.

If you are over 50 you probably remember the phrase, “the TV is on the fritz.” It meant instead of watching “Mary Tyler Moore”, all you could see was a scrambled signal that looked like a snowstorm of black and white dots.

Your gastrointestinal tract (GI) has as many neurons (nerve cells) as a dog or cat, about 200 million. The need for so much brainpower, enough that scientists call your gut’s nervous system “The Second Brain”, is due to the complexity of digesting and absorbing nutrients from the wide array of food included in the Human diet.

Here’s what to do to avoid starting the new-year feeling like a beached whale, with a head cold, who spent all night at an All You Can Eat seafood bar.

When we overindulge in rich food and drinks during the holidays it’s common to end up with stomach troubles. Common symptoms of “seasonal” overindulgence are feeling bloated, unbalanced, and maybe a little abdominal pain combined with diarrhea.

The cold & flu season is here and antibiotics are an important tool in fighting Ear, Bronchial, and Sinus infections caused by bacteria. Most of the time antibiotics work great. However, 1 in 5 unfortunate souls will develop diarrhea during or after their antibiotic treatment.

According to a 2014 study sponsored by the Gatorade Sports Science Institute, endurance athletes are far more likely to experience gastrointestinal (GI) health problems like diarrhea, cramping, and feeling an extreme bowel movement urge.

The most common ailments are basic indigestion, bloating, or gas and 59% of those with problems tried an OTC remedy like the chalky white stuff or pink stuff in a bottle.

Aspartame is one of the most commonly used artificial sweeteners on the market and is what makes popular diet sodas, like Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi taste sweet.

The office environment is one area of the energy conservation movement that has been a great success. Modern office buildings are very efficient at heating and cooling, which is achieved by tightly controlling the environment.
