Recycle to survive
Recycle to survive

Round and round it goes
For some million years humanoid creatures have survived on this planet by eating fresh plants grown in living soil.
The way it worked is simple. Plants capture energy from the sun, they die and an army of recyclers worms, ants, beetles, insects, maggots, and creepy crawlies break down this organic matter.
Like us they have guts full of microbes that pass into the soil, then the plants we eat, and finally into our gut.
This is our control system which regulates our bodies, in particular regulating the amount of fat we store.

Homeostasis
Many of my readers know that I am a bit OCDish about how our food system is compromising community health.
The medical facts are simple, everyone has an inbuilt control system which regulates our bodies (homeostasis).
This is our gut brain – a combination of our gut and head brains.
A healthy gut brain is the core to living a long and healthy life while a poor gut brain is the underlying cause of the modern epidemic of overweight, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia.
Our gut brain really matters.

The modern chemical industrial food system is highly productive producing large quantities of standardised energy food at economic prices.
But the food is inert lacking the essential microbes to feed our gut brain so our control system, which regulates our bodies, does not work as it should.
The Gbiota aim is not to replace the existing food system but to supplement by growing gut brain food to feed out gut brain – our control system.
It is just a fact of life that there are beneficial microbes that power our gut brain but there are also harmful microbes that make us sick or even kill us.

Gbiota interest is how to grow gut brain food. Few people are going to Google ‘how to grow gut brain food’ and if they do they will be exposed to a plethora of adverts for pills of dubious benefit.
Our gut brain is the control system for our bodies, every machine has some form of control system, even if it is just a simple on/off switch.

Creating change

Every machine has a control system, even if it is a simple on /off switch.
The human body is no different except our control system in incredibly sophisticated and to be honest we have no real understanding of how it works, but work it does.
Our gut is an important part of that control system, it is a real brain powered by trillions of cell communicating with each other, just like some super computer. We just have no idea of the code.

Prevention better than cure

The gut is a highly sophisticated organ that does much more than digest food.

It forms part of a real brain which controls our bodies, particularly our appetite, what and how much we eat, how much and where we store fat and helps to train our immune system.

I often say that the process of growing gut brain food is easy and that is pretty much true but not as easy as tossing things from the shelves into a Supermarket trolley.
But the process of developing the Gbiota system has been far from easy involving over fifty years of experimentation with many failures – that is the cost of innovation.

Solving the food crisis

The world is suffering a food crisis, not in quantity – we are actually producing more food than the world needs – but in the quality that will lead us to expect a long and healthy life free of the modern diseases obesity, diabetes, heart attacks, dementia, etc.
This is not going to be solved by the Mega Corporations that control our food system or even the Governments we elect to safeguard our interests.
It is going to be solved by people saying I want to live a long and healthy life and not have my leg chopped off from diabetes.

The best pro-biotic ever

What is the best pro-biotic ever, in fact the only one that really works for sure?
Answer human breast milk.
Puzzled scientists
For many ears scientist were puzzled about some weird stuff in breast milk that was indigestible by the baby – then it clicked that this was to feed the babies microbes.
