The Gbiota technology breeds beneficial gut microbes in the soil which enter plants and then form part of our gut biome which regulates appetite so we feel satisfied, don’t over eat and are less probe to chronic disease.
This technology could have a profound impact on the current epidemic of chronic disease.
We have the technology but now we need enterprising growers and people with internet marketing skills.
If you are interest in joining the Gbiota movement we would love to hear from you, just email me colin@gbiota.com

Fat or skinny
Gbiota – the new industry of sustainably breeding beneficial microbes in the soil to grow plants that will enhance our gut biota to keep us healthy.
Why are some people fat and others skinny
We have known for a long time that if we feed the pooh of a skinny mouse to a fat mouse that it will become skinny and vice versa.
Of course, humans are not in the habit of eating each other’s pooh but we can get similar results with humans by a faecal transplant.
Maybe something that we don’t want to think about but taking the pooh of a fat or skinny person and poking it up someone else bum will switch them from to being fat or skinny.
Changing our gut biota can switch us from being fat or skinny.
Newton
You have no doubt heard the conventional wisdom that we get fat and sick because we eat to much and the solutions is to eat less and exercise more – the calorie balance theory.
Similarly you will no doubt be aware that despite these words of wisdom that people across the globe are getting fatter and sicker.
The fundamental laws of conservation of mass and energy were given to us by Newton some two hundred years ago – how can we reconcile what appears to be opposing approaches.
What is the mechanism?
This raises many questions –
How does changing the gut biota change people from fat to skinny or vice versa? What is the mechanism?
Does it matter and how can we take advantage of this mechanism?
Well, it matters a lot. Skinny people are more prone to infectious diseases while fat people are more prone to non-infectious or chronic diseases. This has reached epidemic proportions and would probably rank as the top global health crisis – so it matters a lot.
We can answer that. Our gut has trillions of cells which communicate with each other to provide genuine intelligence, particularly in deciding what and how much food we want to eat.
These microbes need to be fed, so say before we had sugar-eating microbes and we changed the balance to more fibre-eating microbes. The remaining sugar-eating microbes would feel they are starving so would send out signals to make us feel hungry leading us to want to overeat and get fat.
See food not sea food
We can loose weight by going on a calorie restricted diet but we will suffer from food cravings. We can win for a while but eventually we will see food and eat it.
Our gut-brain almost always eventually wins so leading to the well know yo-yo eating.
To win long term we need to overcome these food cravings so we feel satisfied and that is much easier than you may think – just feed our gut-brain the right sort of gut-brain food so we have a beneficial microbes in our gut.
Will it work?
Science likes general laws which can be used to solve specific problems. Newtons laws are general laws which we all thought were universally true until Einstein came along and showed us that if we were zapping around near the speed of light that we needed a modified set of general laws.
The human body, particularly our gut and heat brains, are highly sophisticated with considerable variation between people so there bad news is that there is no law which is universally true but the good news is that it is a simple and inexpensive process to feed your gut-brain for say three months and then you will know for sure whether this will work for you.
I am sorry I can’t give you a general law, I didn’t design the universe, I just do my best to understand how it works.
So what goes?
So what can we do about it? We can’t just start eating each other’s pooh.
Many animals from mice to elephants will eat each others pooh to feed their gut biota but they have evolved an immune system which can cope with eating other creatures’ pooh without getting sick.
We lack that immune system so no doubt you will be pleased to hear that the recommended solution does not involve us becoming pooh eaters.
Understanding our gut biota
But we can study where our gut biota comes from and use this understanding to develop strategies to enhance our gut biota.
As a baby, mum transferred her biota to us during birth, and then after from her milk but where did mum get her gut biota from? From the food she ate.
Humanoid creatures have been on this earth for some million years and modern humans, like us for some two hundred thousand years.
Eating plants grown in living soil
Until very recently we ate plants that were grown in soil full of living creatures, some like the nematodes microscopic and others like worms and beetles large enough for us to see.
All these creatures would be busy pooping out living microbes. Also, the plants exude sugars to feed the microbes living in the soil, with each plant exuding different sugars to support specific types of microbes which would benefit that plant.
Eco-balance
This is a highly sophisticated Eco-system which would generally be in a state of balance with the beneficial microbes out-competing and out-breeding any harmful microbes.
But not always and it was not uncommon, if the conditions did not preferentially benefit the beneficial microbes, that the harmful microbes would gain the upper hand.
Historically this was not good for us humans with many, actually most, people dying young before their natural life expectancy.
The wrong technology
Humans, being technologically sophisticated, developed the use of chemicals to control any potentially dangerous microbes but the net result was that we killed off the beneficial microbes which has led to the current epidemic of chronic or non-infectious diseases.
That is why the Gbiota technology was developed, it is based on the principles of Eco-balance so the beneficial microbes can out-compete and out-breed the harmful microbes.
This is done in the soil, so the soil is teaming with beneficial microbes which will enter the plants and then our gut.
But microbes have a very short life so the plants must be eaten while fresh – shortly after picking.
Local growers
We can solve that problem by licensing the Gbiota technology to local growers who create the Eco-balance in the soil in permanent Gbiota beds.
But open mesh baskets, like supermarket baskets, are incorporated into these beds so the beneficial microbes can readily enter the baskets and hence the plants.
When the plants are ready to be eaten the Gbiota basket is then taken from the Gbiota beds, full of the Gbiota soil we call Wickimix, and delivered to the final customer who can then pick and eat the plants while genuinely fresh and hence enhance their gut biota.
Register your interest
If this is of interest, and of course, many people are put off by the whole business of creatures pooping away in the soil, but if you can handle that idea then please register your interest here.
When there are sufficient people in an area we will seek out and train a local grower so they can provide the local community with Gbiota baskets.
A new food industry for a healthy and sustainable future
Let us be clear this is creating a new industry with local growers supplying their local community, very different to the current industry dominated by global meg-corporations.
In some ways this is not new at all, microbes were the first living creatures on the earth going back billions of years and creating soil which led to an explosion of life on earth, but it was an uncontrolled process leading to epidemics of infectious diseases.
Microbes breed very easily, there is nothing new about microbes breeding what is new it controlling the conditions to create an Eco-balance so the beneficial microbes out-breed the harmful microbes.
Pioneering spirits
Preferentially breeding beneficial microbes in the soil means the creation of a new industry and new industries are not created by one person, certainly not me without help, but by a team of pioneering spirits with vision who can look into the future to see what needs to be done.
If you are such a pioneering spirit I would love to hear from you so why not email me here
Linking to a grower
Gbiota enhances Gut Biota, which regulates your body, by breeding beneficial microbes in Wickimix – a special soil – then growing plants in this Wickimix which will transfer these microbes to your gut.
You can join the Gbiota movement in three ways
