GROW METABOLIC FOOD FOR HEALTH
Most modern food provides energy, but lacks essential minerals, trace elements, and good microbes. By growing food in biologically active, mineral-rich soil, we can access the things our body needs to make us live a long and healthy life.
Grow Food That Supports Soil, Plants and Human Health
Gbiota explores the connection between healthy soil biology, better food quality and healthier people.
Developed from more than 50 years of Colin Austin’s work in food growing systems, Gbiota asks a simple but important question: could healthier soils help produce healthier food?
What If We’re Solving the Wrong Problem?
We’re producing more food than ever before. So why are so many people becoming fat, sick and dependent on medication?
Most explanations focus on calories, exercise, genetics or personal choices. But what if something more fundamental is being overlooked?
Could healthier soils produce healthier food and healthier people?
Watch Colin Explain the Gbiota Idea
Colin Austin explains why he believes soil biology, food quality and human health may be more closely connected than we realise.
How Gbiota Works
Gbiota is not just about adding microbes. It is about creating the conditions where beneficial microbial life can thrive.
1. Healthy Growing System
Use a practical growing system designed to achieve ideal moisture, thriving roots and soil biology.
2. Living Soil Conditions
Create an environment where beneficial microbes can multiply and support plant growth.
3. Better Food Quality
Grow fresh food in a system that considers the connection between soil, plants and people.
4. A Bigger Question
Explore whether healthy microbes in soil ecosystems may help support human health & prevent modern disease.
