Surely you have ever heard of the microbiome, do you know what it is? We are talking about the set of genes of all the microorganisms that are in our body : the microbiota, which is made up of fungi, viruses and bacteria. As the biologist Lynn Margulis already said: “we are a bag of microbes” and, furthermore, we would be unable to live without them. Only in the human intestinal tract it is estimated that there are more than 39 billion microorganisms, something that is equivalent to about 2 kg of body weight
In recent years, more and more scientists are interested in these small inhabitants of our intestinal tract. And it is that, they not only help us in digestion: Did you know that some species of the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera influence our social behavior, anxiety, the response to stress, and may even have to do with the processes of depression ?
For all this, alterations in the intestinal microbiota can affect health, and it is known that a balanced diet, physical exercise and good sleep hygiene help us take care of these essential critters that we carry inside. In addition, to help balance the microbiota we can use a series of “good” microorganisms, which the World Health Organization calls “probiotics”, and which are nothing more than live bacteria that, consumed in the appropriate doses, confer a consumer health benefit.
The Microbiome Test
Some studies have shown that different configurations of microorganisms are associated with a lower risk of contracting certain diseases, so they could be prevented by modifying microbial communities.
The Spanish Institute of Personalized Nutrition proposes, through “39 and you, Precision Nutrition from your Microbiota” a Microbiome Test based on the DNA of the microorganisms in your intestine to find out the state of your microbiota. This test exhaustively analyzes the identity and abundance of the microorganisms present in your intestine to know the diversity of bacteria that exist and detect possible alterations. Based on the results obtained from your test, your precision nutrition solution is recommended so that you can regain a good balance of your microbiota and make you feel better. All information is treated absolutely anonymously and confidentially.
This is the origin of the new precision nutrition revolution, to show you what your body needs to help you find balance in intestinal health by providing, through probiotics, solutions for different needs:
• Help your defenses
• Helps control plasma glucose
• Helps reduce cholesterol
• Helps improve digestive discomfort
• Helps improve intestinal discomfort
• Helps improve intestinal regularity
• Helps to supplement the diet for celiacs
The Spanish Institute of Personalized Nutrition has the endorsement and collaboration of institutions with a solid scientific reputation and the contribution of the latest technological advances, among which CAPSA FOOD stands out – the 1st Spanish food company to obtain the EFQM +500 seal of excellence in 2012 -, the Chair of Nutrition and Health of the Complutense University of Madrid and the company DARWIN BIOPROSPECTING EXCELLENCE.
