Foundational Gut Nutrition

Health in general starts in the gut.

Hippocrates said it in 400 B.C. and since then modern science has proven it. Any immune dysfunction (auto-immune, allergies, food sensitivities, rashes, psoriasis, eczema, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, etc.) can be traced back to a dysfunction in the GI. Any inflammatory condition can as well.

Why is a good probiotic so important for kids?

A healthy body starts with a healthy gut.

Establishing a healthy gut microbiome early in life is foundational to setting the stage for good health throughout life. The health of the immune system is directly related to the health of the gut.

The gut allows us to interact with the environment (which includes food), taking in what is necessary and beneficial and keeping out (hopefully) what might be unnecessary or harmful.

Now, modern science has shown us that weight control, mood, depression and other mental disorders are also connected to the gut (the second brain). Even chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, etc. can be traced back to the gut.

Everything starts in the GI. It’s important to support the gut microbiome early in life.

Helps Maintain H. Pylori Levels Already within Normal Range

Dietary Supplement Designed to Support Body’s Natural Processes for Elimination

Supports Overall Digestive Health 

PyloGuard contains a patented Lactobacillus reuteri strain (DSM 17648) that can bind specifically to H. pylori in the stomach and supports their removal from the body via the digestive tract. Backed by scientific research.

Helicobacter pylori is the major cause of chronic gastritis, and considered as a risk factor for peptic ulcer and gastric cancer.

Key Benefits

• Supports bacteria levels in the stomach
• Promotes the body’s process of elimination
• Supports the microbiome
• Maintains H pylori levels already within the normal range

“The effect of Lactobacillus reuterisupplementation in Helicobacter pylori infection: a placebo-controlled, single-blind study”

Excerpts:
“After a 28-day supplementation phase with Pylopass {Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17648} there was a trend for reduction of H. pylori load in 62.5% of the subjects and for the overall GSRS {Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale} scores in 66.7% of subjects.”

“The results demonstrated that L. reuteri DSM 17648 has the potential to suppress H. pylori infection, and may lead to an improvement of H. pylori-associated gastro intestinal symptoms. Further studies with adequate power should be performed.”

More About the Mucosal System
The mucosal system is a very important part of the human immune system. It is the main interface between the human body and the outside world.

The mucosal system contains 150 times more surface area than skin, which makes it one of the most important immune barriers.

The health of the mucosa determines how the body interacts with antigens; therefore the integrity of the intestinal mucosa can dictate overall immune function.

Mucosa are membranes that line various cavities in the body; some secrete mucus, a thick protective fluid.

The mucosal membrane in the gut functions to stop pathogens and other unwanted molecules from getting into the blood stream.

Clinically Studied Unique Strain of Bifidobacterium longum — 1714 Strain Combined with L-theanine and Lemon Balm

Zenbiome SLEEP is formulated to help deal with occasional sleeplessness, but can also help support feelings of relaxation and reduced tension. Zenbiome SLEEP promotes alpha brain waves.

(Alpha waves measure between 8 and 12 Hz and occur when people feel relaxed and when the brain is disengaged without concentrating on anything.)

Zenbiome SLEEP is a psychobiotic powered by the 1714 strain, a unique strain of Bifidobacterium longum with an exopolysaccharide clinically shown to support a calm mind and quality sleep.

Zenbiome SLEEP is further enhanced with L-theanine and lemon balm to further support the body’s natural sleep cycles.

What is a Psychobiotic?

“Psychobiotics are defined as probiotics that confer mental health benefits to the host when ingested in a particular quantity through interaction with commensal gut bacteria.”

— from “Psychobiotics: Mechanisms of Action, Evaluation Methods and Effectiveness in Applications with Food Products,” Nutrients, 2020

The Gut-Brain Axis and the Psychobiome

The gut-brain axis, a bidirectional communication between gut microbiota and the central nervous system (CNS), may play a role in cognitive function, digestion, and mood.

Studies show that 80-90% of the fibers in the vagus nerve are linked to the gut, providing a physical link through which the gut microbiota communicate with the brain.

Relatedly, the term psychobiome is used to describe the interaction between a person’s collective microbiome and their mental state.

A diverse and balanced microbiome can help maintain the gut-brain axis. A psychobiotic is used to describe the commensal bacteria that play a role in the gut-brain axis and support brain health.

1714: A Trail-blazing Psychobiotic — the Research

1714, a unique strain of Bifidobacterium longum, is an up-and-coming psychobiotic that can help support the management of occasional stress and its biochemical expression within the human body.

This psychobiotic exerts its effect by targeting the HPA axis to support healthy cortisol levels. 1714 may support mental health, cognitive process, neurotransmitters, and overall feeling of well-being.

In a 4-week human trial, 1714 reduced perceived stress, improved memory performance, reduced mental fatigue, positively supported brainwave activity, and improved ability to handle occasional stress.

Foundational Gut Nutrition

Supports Healthy Immune Response in Gut Mucosa, Supports Microbial Diversity, Leaky Gut

First Complete Mucosal Support Supplement of its Kind, Formulated with Key Amino Acids, to Support a Healthy Mucosal Barrier. 

Dairy-Free Immunoglobulins, Gut-healing Amino Acids and Citrus Polyphenols

Capsule Formulation

Works with MegaSporeBiotic Probiotic

Core Component of Total Gut Restoration program — Formulated to Rebuild a healthy mucosal barrier.

The dairy-free immunoglobulin concentrate supports healthy digestion, neutralizes environmental toxins, and helps to Rebuild protective intestinal barriers.  These IgG antibodies can reduce the damage of metabolic endotoxemia and neutralize LPS (lipopolysaccharides), an endotoxin that riggers mucosal activation.

#2 Key Gut-Healing Amino Acids
MegaMucosa also contains four key amino acids that play an important role in the production of intestinal mucosa: L-proline, L-serine, L-cysteine and L-threonine. These four amino acids have been shown to increase Mucin2 production and stimulate mucin synthesis in the colon, resulting in a thicker and healthier mucosal barrier.

#3 Citrus Polyphenols
MegaMucosa contains a natural citrus extract (MicrobiomeX) rich in polyphenols that supports digestive health and immunity by increasing microbial diversity in the gut and improving gut barrier function.

A clinical study using 500 mg of citrus fruit extract found a significant increase in short-chain fatty acid (SFCA) composition and a reduction in fecal calprotectin. Both results suggest that citrus polyphenols can reduce inflammation and modulate the microbial composition in the gut.

MegaMucosa is a Core Component of the 3- Pronged Total Gut Restoration Program from Microbiome Labs 

The 3-pronged program is based on:
1. Reconditioning the gut with MegaSporeBiotic 100% bacillus probiotic to increase microbial diversity and encourage growth of key health-promoting, commensal gut bacteria (even during antibiotic therapy).

2. Reinforcing the beneficial microbial changes created by MegaSporeBiotic with MegaPreBiotic to promote a strong and diverse microbiome. It is composed of clinically-tested non-digestible oligosaccharides that can increase microbial diversity and selectively feed beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, and Bifidobacteria. 

3. Rebuilding the intestinal mucosa/addressing leaky gut with MegaMucosa, containing key amino acids, dairy-free immunoglobulins and citrus-based flavobiotic.

Produces Targeted Antibiotics in Intestines
Effective During Antibiotic Therapy

Formulated to Enhance Efficiency of MegaSporeBiotic

40% Increase in Short-Chain Fatty Acid (SCFA) Production

When additional gut microbiome support is needed, HU58 can be taken with (or without) MegaSporeBiotic to support:

• healthy gut flora balance
• healthy digestion
• healthy immune function
• healthy gut response in conditions with intestinal inflammation

Survivability in the Gut

Bacillus subtilis in HU58 is a very robust probiotic that forms an outer protective shell, known as an endospore. This impenetrable coating protects the bacterium from harsh environments, including heat, acid, pressure, light, and lack of oxygen. The rugged nature of Bacillus subtilis makes it the perfect probiotic to survive manufacturing, packaging, shipping, and ultimately digestion. In fact, this species is so resilient that researchers at California Polytechnic State University reported reviving Bacillus spores from the gut of a 25-million-year-old bee that was fossilized in amber.

The HU58 strain of Bacillus subtilis is a friendly bacterial spore that was discovered in a healthy human gut at the University of London. HU58 is an incredibly rugged spore that can withstand extreme pH levels, high temperatures, dehydration, antibiotics, pressure, radiation and even the harsh environment of the digestive tract. It can also produce over 12 targeted antibiotics of its own, which makes it particularly effective at balancing gut flora.
