GOS significantly increased the numbers of beneficial bacteria, especially bifidobacteria, at the expense of less beneficial groups. Significant increases in phagocytosis, NK cell activity, and the production of antiinflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) and significant reduction in the production of proinflammatory cytokines were also observed. GOS administration resulted in positive effects on both the microflora composition and the immune response.
Human Origin Strains—HOSt™ are live, bioidentical microbes present during a healthy human birth. These resident strains differ from transient probiotics—from animals and plants, which pass through the digestive system without permanent colonization, leading to disruptions and imbalances. This is called Dysbiosis.
The composition of our microbiome is established by transmission of foundational human strains naturally at birth. This is called Generational Transmission.
HOSt™ form the foundation of the gut microbiome and are the immune system’s principal protectors, defending against daily disruptors. RE-1™ contains clinically validated ingredients to establish a microbiome flourishing with HOSt™–allowing your immune system to be supported by its oldest allies and most precious protectors. These strains exhibit superior physiological functions to establish and maintain balance. This is called Eubiosis.
80% of those living in urban environments - missing Human Origin Strains (HOSt™) have experienced daily gut disturbances in the past 30 days.
