Microbiome news

We all have come to face that we are amidst a gigantic mass extinction of global scope. The reasons for it are the rapid change that ecosystems are underlying, caused by climate change and utter destruction of habitats. In a nutshell, humans shape the planet faster than life on it is able to adjust to the new settings.

Probiotics, and other microbiome directed therapies, represent a diverse array of products and approaches. But just how far have we come in terms of this kind of personalization? A new paper written by 16 industry and academic scientists gives us some pointers.    

Some of the most important decisions in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic include avoiding interpersonal contact, disinfecting hands after touching skills and following forces rules of breathing etiquette. At the same time we notice that we are increasingly lacking social contacts.

A study revealed that factors like location, siblings, and pets do have an influence on the composition of the microbiome in the bedding. Also, a low correlation between that microbiome and the one in the children’s airways was reported.

Let us introduce you to one more interesting product that we had the pleasure to certify microbiome-friendly, lately. We are talking about the brand of House of GRŌ™, a US-American indie beauty brand that is working with formulas based on CBD and chaga. The seal was awarded to the After Dark Serum and WOKE.

Evaluation of microbiome test kits:  Some products score with being particularly user friendly, also for clients not home in the digital world. Others comes with personal consultancy and the some with especially profound scientific methods.

What’s the matter with that ongoing disinfecting of everything? Of course, hygiene is important. Nevertheless, we would like to raise the question of who came up with the rule that hands, tables, door handles, and other surfaces have to be disinfected constantly.
