GUT Health

Bacteria, and Yeasts are Powerful Allies

Ferments have been used for millennia, and traditional cuisines include fermented foods with every meal. 

Fermentation leads to bio-activation of phytonutrients and enhancement of medicinal properties.

Most people consume dead ferments such as bread and beer and don’t consume enough living foods.

Exposure to chlorinated water, antibiotics, pesticides, and disinfectants wages war on our microbiome. 

Extremely Alive Probiotic tonics are a simple, and easy way to include living probiotics in modern diets.

  • MICROBIAL MAGIC IN GUT HEALTH

    Microbes inhabiting your body are more numerous than stars in the known universe. Bacteria out-number human cells, viruses out-number bacteria, and microbial genes out-number human genes. There are more than 5000 species of bacteria, archea, fungi, protozoa and viruses in our bodies and new species are discovered with every 6 people tested.

    These microorganisms, collectively known as the gut microbiome, play a crucial role in maintaining the health of the digestive system and overall health of the individual. The gut microbiome influences a wide range of physiological processes, including digestion, metabolism, immune system function, brain function and emotional regulation.

  • WHAT ARE PROBIOTICS?

    Probiotics are live microorganisms that are similar to the beneficial microorganisms found in the human gut. They are often called "good" or "helpful" bacteria because they help keep the gut microbiome balanced. Prebiotics are non-digestible substances that stimulate the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the gut. They are typically found in plant-based foods, such as whole grains, legumes, and fruits.

  • WHY IS THE GUT MICROBIOME IMPORTANT?

    There is a growing body of research on the importance of the gut microbiome in health and disease. Some studies have suggested that imbalances in the gut microbiome may be linked to a variety of health conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and obesity. Maintaining a healthy and balanced gut microbiome may be achieved through a diet rich in fiber, fermented foods, and probiotics.

Traditional Chinese Medicine prescribes a balance between the 5 flavours: sweet, salty, spicy, sour and bitter

People in modern societies often consume excess sweet, salty and spicy flavours and not enough sour and bitter

The sour, tangy flavour of fermented tea is the base for all our tonics.

The Flu Shot tonic has a punchy bitter flavour that can help quell sugar cravings

Having an apéritif or digestif before or after meals can awaken and expand the palate and stimulate your liver so you extract more enjoyment and nutrition from your food.
