Now everyone can evaluate his intestinal bacteria at home

Who wants to earn with health issues, money, is supposed to act as the flourishing life. Sleep is vital, with a bit of color in the face. Sergey Musienko, however, although only 33 years old, looks more like the people from whom he wants to report on this early summer day in Berlin: people who live in the West, a high life expectancy, but too little sleep, Stress, suffering, and unhealthy diets. They are due to their lifestyle not as Healthy and older, but eventually get preventable diseases. Up to four of such Suffering would have been set up to live in the middle of every Second, says Musienko, and they could be dealt with with a growing expense – but would it not be better to prevent all of this?

Yes, nods to the inside, but the question is: how? Musienko has brought to this day his answer. In beautiful weather, the Windows are darkened, and the founder of Atlas Biomed presents a Well - "listen to Your". The Test does not come out of the UK, he is now in Germany or Austria online – in Switzerland. 160 euros the Set, and any Consumer can get on a new plane of the Invisible into the personal disease prevention. The Test is used to determine which bacteria live in the intestines. Who listens to this so-called Microbiota, is the Message Musienkos, can completely prevent a targeted and individual diseases.

In the UK, offers Atlas, Biomed, not only this one but also a second, a genetic Test. It is similar to the already large variety of available DNA analysis, the payment of joyous customers should reveal something about their origin. Also the genetic test to help with self-optimization, by identifying a special, hereditary disease risks. And best of all, according to the researchers, of course, to order both Kits together: The first Set includes a tube with a wider Opening for the clean spit. The second Set is for the Microbiome comes with a small spatula, a tube Special and an additional resource for the sampling.

About the tips that you get with a microbiome test, no doctors, not even the WHO are fighting.

Musienko and his colleague Dmitry Alexeev make jokes, somehow you have to help the audience over the embarrassment, mentally in their own excrement poke around. Who did this however, once behind, dissolves the poop samples contact-free in the supplied "Deluxe tubes". It already contains the necessary buffers for the extraction of bacterial DNA and a small ball to the Mix. Shake well enough. Then you must seal the sample, only in the danger bag and quite normal in the Post.

Little amazing

Almost all of the Direct-to-Consumer Tests work in a similar fashion, to spit, or applied a bit of body substrate into a tube, sent it and is waiting for results. For several weeks it usually takes until the feedback coming. Also in the case of Atlas, Biomed, this is not the case: Up to two months have to wait on the Microbiome-oriented, self-optimizer. But because it has registered its private Test in the App on your own phone, not to miss the postman at least. The results of the personal intestinal bacteria evaluation of flow directly on your Smartphone.

breaking new ground: from the looks of How the Interaction between microbes and the body in a biochemical context, is not scientifically understood. (Image: )

terms such as "personal" and "precise" are, however, quite pompous announcements in connection with such over-the-counter, on the Internet or on the phone available for order Tests. Because of the advice to drink out of consideration for the own health for example, a little alcohol, is about as surprising as the realization that a light-skinned Brit with blue eyes, is, at least genetically, mainly Europeans. And what follows from it?

lifestyle changes

What the customer receives with both Tests, but also by the microbiome test alone, the majority of the tips on the still, no doctors, not even the world health organization is arguing. You may eat less red meat? Is never a bad idea. You should rich in fiber and a variety of food to choose? The diet researchers have been saying for decades. Why a person should refrain from olives, not immediately, after all, valuable lactic acid bacteria are in there and the best of all fats, olive oil. However, the fermented fruits contain a lot of salt and also this is supposed to be bad for the blood pressure anyway.

the tips look a little bit personally, surprised but not completely. The questionnaire of the App is explored by age, gender, dietary habits, existing, or by either disease and alcohol consumption to abdominal circumference, weight, vitamin supplements and exercise habits and just about everything is an adjustment of lifestyle to know.

What is the Interplay between microbes and the body for health and disease, is not scientifically understood.

What do the good advice, however, with the intestinal bacteria, it remains open and can not be different at all: in the Meantime, there are some confirmed and many unconfirmed indications that the own microflora takes measurable influences on physical and possibly also on the mental Constitution of man.

Not even begun to be understood

And also in Berlin, the presenter of the Atlas Biomed come finally to Giulia Enders to speak, the author of "intestine with charm". The Bestseller has given the microbiome research strong thrust, after all, many believe since then, that the times more, times less symbiotic inhabitants of the human digestive tract is the key to physical well-being.

But it looks like the Interaction between microbes and the body in biochemical the overall context and what it means for health and disease, is not scientifically understood even in the approach, experts warn. It also doesn't help that Atlas Biomed claims to be able to more than 1200 different species of bacteria to identify – at least at the level of the genus, the individual species can not be determined in the context of the test.

the representatives of The 80 to 100 genera, which are gathered in a single intestinal flora, but anyway something different than you would do alone. In the reason, you should therefore explore each of these communities, for any individual, excessively, to be able to say whether it makes you sick or what Nutrients it provides their best service to the host.

wasted money

Worth a Test, anyway? Atlas Biomed is already the only provider of direct to the consumer-oriented test of this kind is offered, And who is a Fan of diet myths and also the Sport can bring, if a Gadget like the Smartphone for reminders, you can benefit from the Presence of the own chair, possibly – simply because he or she has spent money through the tips, after all, less crap to eat, even to lose weight and be more conscious of moves.

long-term studies have provided evidence of the effect of Test and App, there are, however, not yet. Until then the money is therefore better for a new Pair of sneakers and inform online with the relevant health institutions on nutrition. The Rest is simply a matter of self-overcoming.
