@arakatz @suzywillow Hi @pakhzar thanks for the comment and good to hear you’re a user of probiotics, though it’s currently a loose term in the US to describe everything from fermented foods to a wide range of health products. It’s also great you’re a daily user, since probiotics are known ‘transient passengers’ in the gut, with their benefits contingent on daily consumption. US products mostly contain legacy strains from the dairy or dietary supplements industry, with either no clinical support or focused on specific indications (like antibiotic-associated diarrhea). The future of probiotics will zoom into specific strains with mechanistic research targeting a variety of systems in the body. For example, our cardiovascular health strain was screened from thousands of strains to demonstrate it’s mechanistic and in vivo effect. Our strain bank includes probiotic strains banked in Italy, Denmark, UK, France, Belgium, Spain, Japan and the United States- and our platform includes technologies not used by other companies, including a mechanistic model looking at inflammatory pathways developed @Harvard Medical School’s Dept of Genetics. At the end of the day, we want to encourage consumers to ask questions like ‘What strains are in my product?”, “What mechanistic and clinical evidence supports beneficial activity?”, and many more— hope that’s helpful and always happy to talk microbes over @seed
