The Trial
The Trial

We know that the world’s biggest health issue is the epidemic of chronic diseases, obesity, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia and that these are caused by the wrong fat in the wrong place.
We think we know how to fix it, eat less and exercise more but we have been trying that for decades and we know for sure that it has not worked, people are getting fatter and diabetes is the fastest-growing disease on the planet.
We live in an age of hyper-activity. Everyone is heads down with busy work but maybe it is time to take a break and have a bit of a think.

Healthy food – intro
Healthy food – intro

Junk food is tasty, convenient, inexpensive but not healthy.

Genuine organic food may be healthy but is very expensive.

But there is a third type of food which is both health and inexpensive, cheaper than junk food and healthier then organic food.

How can that possibly be? What is the catch?

My wife Xiulan, a medical doctor and surgeon became diabetic, the
professional medical advice given to us was that diabetes is an irreversible chronic disease, it will steadily get worse, we will put you on progressively stronger medicines but eventually, you are likely to end up with insulin injections and you will probably die young from some complications arising from diabetes.

We accepted that advice as an honest attempt to make us aware of the harsh
reality.

But when her foot started to turn black we were advised that she would
probably need to have her foot amputated.

Ecosystems
Ecosystems

We must create an ecosystem, a food ecosystem in which humans can thrive.

Charles Darwin taught us that creatures evolve to thrive in their local environment. Humans now have the technology to change our environment, we must use our technology to create an environment where humans can thrive.

Sure our immediate focus is combating the current epidemic, but we won’t do that with some-short term fix.

We have to create the ecosystem, the food ecosystem in which humans can thrive.

Join us in this community benefit movement putting people ahead of profits.

Chronic disease
Chronic disease

Gbiota is a community benefit organisation aiming to prevent the current epidemic of chronic diseases, overweight, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia.

These are all caused by the wrong fat in the wrong place.

We all have a highly sophisticated intelligent control system, our gut-brain, which regulates our appetite so we don’t overeat and get fat. It works incredibly well but we need to feed it gut-brain food – plants eaten while fresh, grown in soil teaming with beneficial microbes.gbiotabox

Gbiota shows you how to either grow or buy gut brain-food.

Health paradox
Health paradox

Chronic diseases, obesity, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia cause a great deal of personal distress and cost Governments billions of dollars.
They are very difficult to cure but can be prevented relatively easily and at low cost. But that requires a change in the way our Governments, our health systems, and society operate to one with a focus on prevention rather than cure.
The underlying cause of all chronic diseases is the wrong fat in the wrong place.
So how does the fat get in the wrong place?
The wrong fat in the wrong place is the underlying cause of all chronic diseases.

Health systems are creaking at the joints with not enough doctors and health workers.
A shortage of beds leads to Ambulance ramping.

Health – prevention first
Health – prevention first

Across the globe, we are suffering from an epidemic of chronic or non-infectious diseases.
We know that these chronic diseases are caused by the wrong fat in the wrong place and it is widely assumed that this is because we are eating too much sugary fatty foods.
While it is true that we do have to consume an excess of sugary fatty foods this is not the cause. How much and where we store fat is decided by our intelligent control system which regulates our bodies.

Governments struggle to maintain an overstretched health system.

Welcome as it may be spending more money on health is not the solution so what is the solution?
In one word prevention.
