Welcome to the fascinating world of your gut microbiome, a vibrant ecosystem teeming with trillions of microorganisms that play a pivotal role in your health and well-being. There are 39,000,000,000 microorganisms living in our body, which accounts for up to 3% of our body mass. This internal vast world that is yet to be explored is not just a passive resident but an active participant in your life, influencing everything from nutrient absorption and immune responses to mood regulation and energy levels. Understanding your microbiome can help you make more informed decisions about your health.

How biosolutions help us take control of our health Did you know that the human microbiome is made up of 38 trillion microbes that live in and on us? They help develop our immune system to be stronger, making us able to fight off infections, digest food and produce the hormones we need in our bodies. In this video, our colleague Adam Baker, Director of Science in Human Health Biosolutions, explains more about the microbiome. He also shares his perspective on the way biosolutions can contribute to human health:  "Research into the microbiome is a brand new area. We now have the science and technology to see and look and start to understand how the microbiome is playing all of its amazing roles. One example is the impact of the food we eat on our physical and mental wellbeing," he says. Adam shares how biosolutions can enable the foundation for healthier lives: "Based on our research, we develop products that can have beneficial effects on the microbiome throughout life stages. We have some of the world's most documented probiotic strains for gut health, but we also have biosolutions for mental health, immune health, women's health and early life nutrition."

Happy World Microbiome Day! 🦠 Today, we join the global campaign in celebrating World Microbiome Day to raise awareness about the incredible world of microbiome and its impact on the environment and human health. This year's theme is "Feed your microbes - How diet shapes your gut microbiome."   For this occasion, we selected several review papers from our #IMMEDIATE researchers on the gut microbiome.   Read more about it 👉 https://lnkd.in/dNHDhU-b #WorldMicrobiomeDay #microbiome #IMMEDIATE #HorizonEU #FeedYourMicrobes

Understanding the Gut Microbiome: Key Differences Between "Microbiota" and "Microbiome" 🦠 💡 Microbiota vs. Microbiome: What's the Difference? While the terms "microbiota" and "microbiome" are often used interchangeably, they actually describe distinct components of the gut ecosystem. Let's break it down: 🔬 Microbiota: Refers to the actual community of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses) residing in the gut. Think of it as the "inhabitants" of your digestive system. 🧬 Microbiome: This goes beyond just the microbes; it also encompasses their genetic material and the vast array of genes they produce. These genes play a critical role in our health, influencing everything from metabolism to immune function. Did you know? The gut microbiota weighs about 2-3 kg (over 6 pounds)—more than you'd expect! 💥 These bacteria are in constant flux, with new ones being born and others dying off. Fun fact: 60% of stool content is made up of live and dead bacteria! 🧠 The fascinating part? Your diet plays a pivotal role in shaping the microbiome. But it’s not just about food—social interactions, exposure to pets, and environmental factors all contribute to the diversity of your gut bacteria. This complex microbiome ecosystem is essential not only for digestion but also for overall health, including brain function and mental well-being. The gut-brain connection is real! #GutHealth #Microbiome #Microbiota #HealthResearch #Wellbeing #GutBrainConnection #MicrobiomeScience #HealthInsights I hope you have found this post informative.

It's so so important that we talk about and study how the microbiome is impacting our health ... it was great to make this video with such a brilliant team of colleagues ... 🔬 🚀 🙂 #microbiome #biosolutions

You are never alone. But don't let this alarm you. Instead, appreciate that you have many microorganisms on and in your body, which is collectively called the microbiome. At Verb Biotics, we recognize the profound significance of the microbiome, particularly the gut microbiome, in maintaining overall health. We regard it with such importance that we view it as an organ, albeit a forgotten one. Like any vital organ, a healthy gut microbiome supports various bodily functions, making it essential for overall health and well-being. Our microbiome plays many roles, including: - Training the immune system - Making vitamins - Improving the skin barrier - Protecting us from pathogens As scientific research continually unfolds, we are seeing an intricate connection between our gut microbiome and overall well-being. This ongoing revelation fuels our team's dedication to helping consumers improve their gut microbiome health. Our first ingredient solution, Keystone Postbiotic™, is a testament to this commitment. Keystone Postbiotic™ is an innovative ingredient solution designed with three synergistic mechanisms of action to support and strengthen foundational gut microbiome health.

Microbiome gaining new insights through specialized testing Over the past few years, I’ve been on the lookout for a reliable and precise test to analyze the microbiome in a way that provides actionable insights into various aspects of health, including mental wellness, immune function, and even metabolic health. After extensive research, I’m excited to share that specialized tests are now available, offering detailed analyses of the gut microbiome and its powerful connection to our overall well-being. These advanced testing methods, such as 16S-rRNA sequencing and metabolomics analysis, provide unique insights by identifying not only the bacterial diversity within the gut but also the specific metabolites these bacteria produce. Understanding these metabolites – including key neurotransmitters, immune modulators, and other bioactive compounds – opens new possibilities for personalized interventions that can enhance mental health, support immune resilience, improve digestion, and even influence energy levels. With the right test, we can develop highly individualized intervention plans, grounded in each person’s unique microbiome profile. This approach enables targeted recommendations, from probiotics and prebiotics to specific dietary and lifestyle adjustments, that aim to holistically support mental, immune, and metabolic health. If you have experience with other microbiome tests or are aware of additional methods, I’d love to hear about them in the comments – let’s exchange insights and expand our understanding of this fascinating field together! #microbiomeInsights #gutbrainaxisresearch #microbiomeanalysis #metabolomicshealth #optimizingguthealth #personalizednutrition #microbiometesting #microbiomewellbeing
