Probiotic

They are correct.

Let's break this down really quick because it's important you understand this background when going into shopping for a probiotic.

When probiotics are first made, meaning the raw material of the bacteria are produced, they come from roughly five international suppliers.

And at that point, at point of creation, there is a ninety-two percent accuracy in labeling.

But at the point of purchase, there is only a fifty to sixty percent accuracy in labeling.

So the people, the staff, have to be trained, and they must adhere to strict hygiene practices.

The premises must be designed for proper cleaning to prevent cross-contamination and to prevent pests.

The process, the manufacturing process, which especially for probiotics is quite sensitive, must be critically maintained, scientifically validated, regularly optimized, all to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency.

Um, there's also prebiotic, which is the food that feeds the microorganisms in your body, and then there's also postbiotic these days, which is the, um, essentially the chemical signals that the good microorganisms create that help your body's immu- uh, immune and, and, um, well, overall health system.

Probiotics-wise, there's a few good ones, and there's a major, I think, like, um, divide between dieticians and, you know, the rest of the medical professionals, which is not bad.

I love dieticians and I love the work they do.

But they'll say that single strain probiotic is better and, and that's true in that there's more evidence for them.

So Biome Australia is the company.

Our flagship brand is called Activated Probiotics, and I'm sure many listeners may have know, known the brand from pharmacy or have seen it in there behind the counter.

So we have a practitioner-only range of condition-specific or targeted probiotics.

And when we first got into this space back in twenty fifteen, sixteen, was via our clinical research, our first study on pediatric allergic asthma.
