It is a highly prized and very valuable food source because it is high in protein and other essential nutrients and vitamins.

Gut Biome Zooki. New from YourZooki

YourZooki has announced a new and exciting addition to their best-selling supplement range, Gut Biome Zooki.

It's not just good for you, it also tastes good too, with delicious extracts of lemon and blueberry.

It also features three hand-selected strains of live bacteria which are designed to maintain a healthy balance in your gut's microbiome. It's a colony of organisms that impact our digestive system, mood, energy, skin, metabolism, sleep, immune system and brain.

Each serving of Gut Biome Zooki contains a stunning 35 billion colony forming units of live bacteria, such as Lactobacillus Casei. Sub Rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium Infantis, and Bifidobacterium Animalis Subsp. 

Kept in sealed and totally airtight oral syringes that stop the premature germination of the bacteria, Gut Biome Zooki uses natural lipids to shield the live bacteria throughout its journey through your stomach and into the large intestine, where they can do their work.

Lactoferrin is employed to make certain the bacteria is kept stable. It also ensures it thrives all the way from the box right down into your gut. 

What exactly is the gut microbiome?

The ‘gut microbiome’ is the community of microbes that live in our gut, mainly our large intestine, or colon. 

It’s produced by trillions of microbes that live in harmony with us in a symbiotic relationship, meaning we depend on them for survival as they also depend on us for our survival.

There are thousands of different species that make up our microbiome, each require different nutrients and conditions for growth and each carry out different jobs in order to keep us healthy.

What's the role of your gut microbiome?

These gut microbes affect hormone production and regulation, make vitamins, influence our immune system, regulate our appetite, metabolism, mood and sleep and even communicate with our brain and nervous system.

One of the most important roles of our gut microbiome is to digest complex dietary fibre. When gut microbes eat fibre, they break it down into chemicals  like short-chain fatty acids, which keep our gut happy and healthy.

The company is a British owned family firm. It's already garnered itself a bit of a celebrity cult status with people like Radio DJ Nick Grimshaw, Jungle Queen Georgia Toffolo and  leading Award Winning Celebrity aesthetician Dr Nina Bal who recommends YourZooki “to every single one of my patients” and regards their supplements as “ground-breaking”. 

The YourZooki product range is officially recommended by the Queen’s pharmacist John Bell & Croyden and uses advanced micellar encapsulation to increase absorption.

Gut Biome Zooki is stocked online at www.yourzooki.com. A one month subscription can be purchased for £39.99.

Bounce back with Bounce Back

Sometimes wouldn't you like something to help you bounce back a little in your life?

Done too much? Partied more than you should? Or perhaps you have been having a very busy work life, with a wonky work-life balance? Or perhaps you have been under the weather a little bit and need something to help you recover?

Whatever's been happening it can leave you feeling somewhat out of sorts and tired and in need of something to help you bounce back?

It would be really magnificent if there was something to help you, wouldn't it?

Now there is with new Bounce Back. Described as the "Post Social Replenishment Drink" it's aim is simply stated to help you "take back tomorrow."

Bounce Back is a carefully designed and crafted combination of amino acids, minerals and vitamins. It's been developed by a team of dedicated biochemists.

It's aim is to help you take back tomorrow.

You can enjoy your social life, then enjoy your can of Bounce Back upon retiring for the night and wake up refreshed the next morning to face whatever life brings your way.

Bounce Back contains 17 active ingredients and these include Choline, to help support the liver, Vitamin B12 and Vitamins B6, C and E.

There's also minerals such as Selenium and Zinc. 

And it actually tastes pretty good, too. You can try Tropical or Raspberry. I happen to like both, but I think Tropical just about has the edge in the taste stakes.

Warrior. Protein bars that taste most excellent

Protein bars are an excellent way of making sure you get the protein you need in a easy to digest form.

But some protein bars are more equal than others.

Take Warrior Protein Bars. Warrior Crunch Protein Bars are phenomenal. Each bar contains 20g of protein and only 2.6g of sugars.

They come in a fantastic range of flavour such as Banoffee Pie, Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter, Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake, Salted Caramel, Choc Chip Cookie Dough, White Chocolate and Key Lime Pie.

I expect that, like us, you have had the experience of buying a protein bar snack with a snazzy name, but which doesn't really taste anything like the snazzy title.

You can be confidant that you will not have that experience with Warrior Crunch Bars, because they are indeed exactly what they say. They taste divine, the Banoffee Pie is banoffee pie and the salted caramel? Absolutely delicious.

And although they are crunchy they are delightfully crunchy, with just enough crunch to be pleasurable and not too much crunch. Unlike some protein bars you can buy, Warrior Bars do not emulate the old 18th century hard tack ship's biscuits!

However, Warrior also produce their equally delicious protein packed Raw Protein Flapjacks. These are high in both protein and fibre, yet are also low in sugar.

Their Cookies & Cream recipe is another great hit with consumers, being high in taste as well as in protein and fibre! Other flavours including chocolate peanut butter, red velvet cake, honey berry and rainbow cupcake are available.

But Warrior is not only a provider of fine baked Raw Protein Flapjacks and Protein Crunch Bars. Warrior also offers a range of other equally high quality products including protein powders, health and wellness products, foods, accessories and even gym clothing, too.

You can check out the very impressive range of products at https://teamwarrior.com, where you can also visit their shop. Products are also available via Anazon.
