Unique probiotic and postbiotic supplements for cellular nutrition

Overview

The project focuses on the development of unique nutritional additives and supplements aimed at enhancing cellular nutrition through the use of probiotics and postbiotics. By fermenting protein and mineral-rich media like whey and chickpeas with probiotic bacteria and yeasts, these supplements deliver essential molecular nutrition at the cellular level. This approach, guided by the philosophy 'Our food is our medicine,' supports cellular functions, repairs, and renewal, while also providing valuable postbiotics from fermentation. The result is a range of probiotic powders available in both non-vegan and vegan forms, addressing the demand for natural, GMO-free probiotics and prebiotics.

Technical specifications

• Fermentation Media: Utilizes whey for non-vegan and chickpeas for vegan options.
• Probiotics and Postbiotics: Rich in natural probiotics and valuable postbiotics from fermentation.
• Real Kefir Grains: Fermented with authentic kefir grains to ensure high efficacy against pathogens like Clostridium spp and Fusobacterium nucleatum.
• Bioactive Molecules: Contains kefiran, a significant prebiotic polysaccharide.
• Customizable Fermentation: Parameters can be modified based on specific nutritional needs.
• Pathogen Resistance: Demonstrated effectiveness against specific pathogens, with plans to test against Candida spp.

Technology readiness level

This technology is at TRL 6, having been validated in a laboratory environment. The next steps include finalizing fermentation parameters and scaling up production for larger applications.
