GROW METABOLIC FOOD FOR HEALTH
Most modern food provides energy, but lacks essential minerals, trace elements, and good microbes. By growing food in biologically active, mineral-rich soil, we can access the things our body needs to make us live a long and healthy life.
Gbiota Mission
“It is the way we manage our newfound technology.”Technology should be used to make a better life for all people, but instead it is being used to make a small number of people incredibly rich while the bulk of the population is going backwards. Nowhere is this more evident than in our food. We now produce enough food to feed the entire population of the world with some to spare, but instead we are producing food that is deficient in key ingredients such as trace minerals, and above all, the microbes in our gut which play a critical role in keeping us active and healthy. This is at the core of the modern epidemic of chronic disease, overweight, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia, which, with the right diet, are largely preventable. I am now an old man — eighty-six to be precise — and still active and healthy. In my younger days, I was a pioneer in introducing Computer Aided Engineering to the world, for which I was recognised as one of Australia’s leading innovators. I now see it as my mission in life to find a way for all people to have food that keeps them active and healthy and allows them to enjoy a long life.
This is the Gbiota Technology
This is the Gbiota technology — a way of growing food that breeds the beneficial microbes essential for health under the right conditions, so that they outbreed and outcompete harmful organisms and conditions. This is not a technology for big business. It is a technology that virtually everyone can benefit from by growing some of their food — what I call metabolic food — at home. This requires a special soil, which I call Wickimix, where the beneficial microbes can breed. The name comes from the wicking beds, one of my innovations, which is an integral part of this technology. Producing Wickimix is not a trivial operation. Not everyone has the time, facilities or understanding required to produce it, but there are many concerned growers with a deep understanding of regenerative growing who can help make this possible. I can produce a limited quantity for my local community, but it needs to become available globally. So I am looking for growers across the globe who can produce and supply Wickimix for their local communities, allowing people everywhere to grow food containing these beneficial microbes in Gbiota Wicking Beds.Colin Austin, founder of Gbiota, is an award-winning Australian innovator recognised for inventing the Wicking Bed system and a pioneer of Computer Aided Design, and recognised as one of Australia’s leading innovators.
