Product overview
Gutsi® Gut Food is the ultimate microbiome food. Containing a specialised blend of "smart" fibres that selectively feed only beneficial gut bacteria, this formula creates a probiotic-friendly environment in the gut to support normal microbial diversity and gut barrier function. This Precision Prebiotic™ provides 3 types of functional fibres that aren™t digested or absorbed by the human gastrointestinal tract but are instead delivered to the large intestine as a fuel source for beneficial bacteria species. Like fertiliser to a garden, Gut Food prebiotics feed healthy bacteria in the digestive tract, allowing them to grow and thrive. Feed your microbiome with probiotic™s perfect partner!
- Targeted prebiotic
- Nourishes friendly flora
- Supports bowel regularity
- 100% food based
Advanced prebiotic support
Gut Food is a Precision Prebiotic™ containing three key oligosaccharides that preferentially target keystone bacterial species in the gut. These foundational strains and species, including Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Bifidobacteria, are vital for supporting healthy metabolic function, body composition and weight, immune function and intestinal barrier function. Increasing populations of these bacteria are an integral part of reinforcing a healthy gut microbiome as these populations can be easily diminished by stress, diet, glyphosate, and other lifestyle factors. In addition, Gut Food nourishes the gut™s beneficial bacteria to support the production of health-balancing postbiotic substances including vitamins, neurotransmitters and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) that support intestinal barrier function and increase beneficial microbial diversity.
Oligosaccharides with oomph!
Galactooligosaccharides (Bimuno®)
Bimuno® is a patented prebiotic composed of galactooligosaccharides (GOS) derived from lactose, or milk sugar, from rBST-free cow™s milk. It specifically feeds and supports the growth of bifidobacteria, a beneficial bacterial species in the gut associated with a wide range of health benefits, including supporting bowel regularity, bowel urgency, excess gas, bloating and digestive discomfort.
Organic Xylooligosaccharides (PreticX™)
PreticX™ is a patented xylooligosaccharide (XOS) prebiotic derived from non-GMO organic corn. Research shows it selectively increases levels of beneficial bifidobacteria and other keystone species in the gut to support healthy digestive and metabolic function. It supports balanced blood glucose and lipid levels and a decrease in the microbial environment associated with weight management.
Organic Kiwifruit powder (ACTAZIN™)
Actazin™ is a novel fructooligosaccharide (FOS) prebiotic derived from whole organic kiwifruit. Healthy bowel function, sluggish bowels and digestive comfort are all supported by this whole food superstar. Uniquely combining both soluble and insoluble fibres, it also offers superior hydration potential compared to other prebiotic fibres (12x more than bran, 6x more than apple pectin, and 1.5x more than psyllium!) to support stool bulk and ease of passage.
The importance of fibre
Diverse and abundant sources of fibre are essential for great gut function. A prebiotic supplement can fill the gaps of a low fibre dietary intake. However, most traditional prebiotic supplements are not formulated to be selective and may indiscriminately encourage the growth of potentially pathogenic species, which may worsen digestive outcomes. Gut Food has been carefully formulated to target and reinforce only beneficial bacterial species of bacteria in the gut, particularly ‘keystone™ species like Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Bifidobacteria.
Keystone bacteria are incredibly important foundational organisms that define the entire microbial ecosystem. Despite existing in relatively low levels in the gut themselves, they are vital for supporting the survival and abundance of other beneficial species to create a stable and balanced microbial ecosystem.
How Gut Food fits into the Gut Reset protocol
Gut Food is introduced in week 5 of the 60-day Gut Reset protocol. As the perfect companion to SporeBiotic™, Gut Food reinforces the beneficial microbial changes seeded by SporeBiotic™ by feeding a balanced microbiome to support robust intestinal barrier function, plus overall digestive, metabolic and immune function.
