Our world is complex! At the beginnings were probiotics, with literally thousands of scientific and research articles underpinning their benefits, then followed by prebiotics, and now a ‘biotic’ revolution. As an industry, we need to step back, take a breath and introspect.
As part of the agro-food industry hi tech journal, I participated in an expert panel on pre and post biotics.
It is quite evident from the guest panelists how diverse the industry has expanded out to be. They provide us with a 360° look at the ’biotics’ world from diverse perspectives which include industry experts, clinical research organizations, regulatory and consulting agencies, market analysts and associations. Deem it a much-needed update of this fast-evolving sector, at the heart of the Microbiome Revolution, albeit from their looking glass. “It is one of the most transversal mega-trends for the food and nutrition markets” said Cristiana Piangiolino from Synbalance, Italy.

Behind closed eyes, the brain is carrying out a carefully coordinated night shift. And research into the microbiome raises an intriguing question: how might the activity in our gut influence the sleep that gives this work its opportunity?
When discussing gut health, the conversation usually centers on the microbiome. While balancing gut bacteria remains essential, cutting-edge science highlights another critical component of cellular health: the glycocalyx.
When discussing chronic neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease, conventional medicine frequently focuses on a single narrative: dopamine depletion. While managing neurotransmitters remains a core part of traditional care, emerging physical chemistry and microbiome research reveal a far broader picture.
