Health Interests
Ex. Gut Support, Probiotics, Digestive Aid
Not all probiotics are created equal. Body Ecology's Bifidus Power Blend has been carefully crafted to feature four probiotic strains of bifidobacteria. Bifidobacteria are native to the gut of a healthy, breastfed baby, but their numbers gradually decline as you age – and not without consequence!
An aging gut is at the root of chronic disease and recurring illness.
Good Health Begins at Birth
One month after birth, bifidobacteria dominate a healthy, breastfed baby's gut – making up as much as 91 percent of the microbes that live there.1 These good-for-you bacteria help to tone the gut barrier and cultivate a strong immune system. But unfortunately, not everyone starts out with a microbial ecosystem ruled by bifidobacteria.
There are a few factors that disrupt a baby's gut:
Premature birth
Cesarean section delivery
Use of baby formula
Antibiotic use
The bad news is that babies are born via C-section, fed formula, and given antibiotics on the regular. Chances are high that one of these happened in your own life when you were a baby. But at what cost?
While your own story is unique, science illuminates specific trends. For example – during infancy, bifidobacteria turn up the volume on one arm of your immune system, regulating its activity. Without high numbers of good bifidobacteria, your immune system falls out of balance. With this, your risk of inflammation, autoimmune disease, and eczema goes up.2
It turns out that in adults and babies alike, bifidobacteria can curb inflammatory signals that have spun out of control and have led to gastrointestinal distress.3
This includes:
Constipation
Diarrhea
Inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's and ulcerative colitis
Necrotizing enterocolitis (seen in babies)
Bifidobacteria are able to reduce intestinal permeability and seal a leaky gut.* They take control of the inner ecosystem and push the bad bacteria bullies out. 4
Time Is Not on Your Side
If you were breastfed as a baby, special sugars in breast milk made sure your baby ecosystem was thriving with plenty of bifidobacteria. However, as you move into adulthood, your bifidobacteria decline. Under the right circumstances, this is okay – you want diversity and a healthy mix of microbes. But if a drop in healthy tribes of good bacteria involves antibiotics or a diet filled with processed foods, this can impact your overall immune health.
Remember, bifidobacteria fight inflammation and keep the gut healthy. They're essential in warding off infection and may even protect against the development of disease. This is but one reason why probiotics become increasingly important with each passing year. As you age, a high-quality probiotic like the Bifidus Power Blend can support both your immune system and your digestion.
When the Bifidus Power Blend becomes a regular part of your day, you'll have the support you need to fight off infections and clean up cellular waste. You can rest assured that the Bifidus Power Blend has been expertly formulated to include only the very best probiotic strains for your health.
Trust Your Gut Feeling
As the Principle of Uniqueness reminds us, you know your body, and if you listen close enough, you will intuitively understand what your body needs to function at its best. Relying on this natural "gut feeling" to nurture and improve your health is not to be underestimated. If you have digestive issues, large or small, or if you find yourself dragging through your day more often than you used to, a daily probiotic can help to correct your course.
In our specially formulated Bifidus Power Blend, you'll find:
Bifidobacterium longum (UABl-14) - Research shows that B. longum can reduce cholesterol, promote weight loss, and relieve constipation.5 In older adults, B. longum minimizes flu and cold-like symptoms – such as fatigue, headache, and runny nose.6 In 2011, scientists found that B. longum could reduce anxiety by way of the gut-brain axis.7
Bifidobacterium bifidum (UABb-10) - Like its bifidobacteria friends, B. bifidum reduces markers of inflammation. 8 One study published in 2011 even found that a probiotic containing only B. bifidum was enough to significantly improve signs of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), such as bloating, abdominal pain, and gas. 9Research shows that B. bifidum (along with B. lactis and Lactobacillus acidophilus) can safeguard against eczema when taken in the third trimester of pregnancy.10 And because bifidobacteria levels decrease with age – increasing your risk of infection – researchers found that supplementing with B. bifidum helps to rebuild the inner ecosystem, even after supplementation has ended. 11
Bifidobacterium breve (Bb-03) - In children with constipation, B. breve increases bowel movements, softens stool, and reduces pain related to constipation.12 In animal studies, researchers found that B. breve suppresses weight gain, improving both cholesterol and blood sugar.13 Other research published in 2015 shows that a probiotic blend of Lactobacillus rhamnosous and B. breve might have an anti-inflammatory effect in cigarette smokers.14
Bifidobacteria infantis (Bi-26) - In 2013, researchers looked closely at the impact of B. infantis on inflammatory disorders that manifested within the gut or outside the gut. Patients had been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, or chronic fatigue syndrome. In all cases, B. infantis has the ability to trim down inflammatory markers.15 In those with celiac disease who are still consuming gluten, B. infantis reduces inflammatory markers as well as indigestion, reflux, and constipation.16
The importance of a healthy gut, and how gut health can affect all areas of your life, can't be overstated. Grasping this truth — that the gut is the source — can bring about an empowering and often radical change.
"You have control over what is happening in your gut. The microbiome is evolving every minute, and it's easily manipulated," says Donna Gates, gut health pioneer and creator of The Body Ecology Diet. "People have said for a long time that disease begins in the gut. Of course, health begins there as well. That's very important to understand because you can fix your gut, and when you do, then you can radiate health. This is always the first place to start: Fix your gut."

Looking for natural hormonal balance and vitality? Dong Quai, often called the “female ginseng,” supports hormonal health, blood circulation, and overall energy. Known for its ability to nourish the body and support women’s health, this herb is perfect for those seeking to balance their cycles, reduce stress, or enhance their vitality naturally.
Please Remember, if your order contains Cocobiotic, BeetBiotic, InnergyBiotic or Dong Quai, to refrigerate these products before opening, and RELEASE CAP SLOWLY, using half turns, until pressure is fully released, then open and enjoy!
Dong Quai is a fermented liquid probiotic beverage containing the herb of the same name, used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine. The herb dong quai, a member of the celery family, has been called “female ginseng” for the role it has played in supporting the balance of female hormones, and providing relief of PMS and the symptoms of menopause.
It’s not just for women, however. The dong quai herb also supports men’s prostate health.
The name dong quai actually translates as “return to order” because of the herb’s ability to promote overall body balancing and restoration. Chinese medicine uses dong quai to strengthen and cleanse the blood, restore energy, and provide a youth-enhancing tonic and digestive aid. This revered herb also has proven antioxidant and antifungal properties.
Body Ecology’s new Dong Quai beverage goes well beyond the health benefits of dong quai by incorporating a proprietary blend of beneficial probiotic bacteria and yeasts:
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Lactobacillus delbreukii
Plus, these gut-friendly bacteria and yeasts come entirely from nature — from organically-certified plant sources. (Unlike numerous probiotics on the market cooked up in some laboratory!)
Effective Healing HerbA thousand years ago, traditional Chinese healers didn’t hand out prescriptions for hormone replacement therapy. They had no pills for menstrual cramps, hot flashes or infertility. But they did have something so powerful that healers — both Eastern and Western — still use it today, ten centuries later. That “something” is an aromatic herb that goes by the name of dong quai.
Perhaps you’ve heard of dong quai. As one of the best-known herbs in China and other Asian nations, it also goes by the name “women’s ginseng”.
Benefits for WomenThe dong quai herb promotes proper balance of the female hormones and the female reproductive cycle. That’s not all it does, however. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses dong quai in numerous ways — in fact, it’s one of the key ingredients in “Four Things Soup”, a widely used women’s tonic. Clinical studies haven’t conclusively nailed down the reasons why dong quai seems to work so well, but some theories have emerged.
Ongoing research on dong quai points to the possibility that some of the herb’s effects are due to phytoestrogens, estrogen-like plant compounds. These phytoestrogens may help to supply an additional mild source of estrogen to balance out levels in the body. Additionally, dong quai contains compounds called coumarins, which act to dilate or open up blood vessels and help control spasms in muscles. Experts surmise that these compounds may act to increase the blood supply to various organs including the uterus, thus promoting the regulation of menstruation.
Benefits for MenThe dong quai herb supports men’s prostate health. Plus, both sexes respond to the herb’s balancing qualities. The name dong quai actually translates as “return to order” because of the herb’s ability to promote overall body balancing and restoration.
Chinese medicine uses dong quai to:
Promote nourishing and cleansing of the blood
Fight the signs of aging
Elevate mood
Increase energy
Maintain proper digestion and immune function
Support optimal joint and bone health
Promote proper functioning of the heart, spleen, liver and kidneys
Dong quai provides a source of vitamin B12, vitamin A, vitamin E, niacin, folate, and iron. Some of the components in dong quai exert free radical-fighting antioxidant qualities.
Although many different brands of probiotics vie for your attention in the health food store, their effectiveness can vary greatly. Many probiotics boast about how many different strains of beneficial bacteria they include, or the number of colony-forming units or CFU’s they contain. Unfortunately, these numbers may be more misleading than helpful.
The bacteria in some probiotic brands may not be natural to the human GI tract… or even be compatible with other bacteria contained in the same formula. Instead of looking for the most strains or the most CFU’s, look instead for how viable and active the cultures are — and how well they will work in your gut.
The other key factor making Dong Quai such a super-probiotic is its bio-availability as a fermented liquid food, rather than an ordinary capsule supplement. In liquid form, the beneficial microflora in Dong Quai’s unique formula can better withstand harsh stomach acids to reach the walls of your intestines — and thus recolonize them more effectively than capsule probiotic supplements.
Now there’s no need to let your busy schedule interfere with your ability to remain on the Body Ecology Diet. Dong Quai and the other freshly-produced probiotic beverages will nourish your inner ecosystem easily, conveniently, and without hassle.
You can consume it as is, dilute it with flat or sparkling mineral water, or add it to other foods or Body Ecology recommended juices and smoothies.
The Perfect Probiotic Solution
Naturally carbonated with a refreshing taste

Promotes normal blood sugar levels
Provides a wonderful daily balancing tonic

"My mood changes and hot flashes have really responded favorably to the fermented Dong Quai! I am feeling more sustained energy too, Not like a stimulant high but a boost in my baseline of energy. I have also noticed greater mental clarity and focus."
-- Jennifer Boddie, Conyers, GA (Certified Body Ecologist)

Want to support a faster, stronger immune system just by enjoying your favorite healthy foods and beverages?
EcoBloom™ may be your answer!
Body Ecology’s newly reformulated EcoBloom™ powder formula fills in where your diet leaves off, seamlessly blending with your favorite foods and beverages to gently clear out waste and bad bacteria.
This easy-to-mix, completely tasteless blend is perfect for:
Supporting smoother, more complete digestion and elimination
Managing bloating, gas, and occasional digestive discomfort
IBS, SIBO, and SIFO friendly
Promoting a healthy immune system
And improving appetite control
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:
3000 mg of Sunfiber
3000 Mg of Acacia fiber
300 mg of BeniCaros. Amount used in research.
HOW TO USE:
Add EcoBloom™ to smoothies, soups, sauces, dressings, baked goods, healthy desserts etc.
If you're not accustomed to eating much fiber, start slowly and gradually increase your intake, per your healthcare professional’s guidance. Consume with plenty of water.
For those of us who don’t eat enough natural fiber from fruits, vegetables, or whole grains — or have a hard time digesting that fiber — EcoBloom™ is a convenient, effective solution designed to be taken long term.
In addition to EcoBloom’s already powerful, synergistic blend of Acacia Fiber, Sunfiber, and prebiotics, we’ve now added BeniCaros — a naturally bioactive fiber also known as RG-1, which trains the immune system to respond faster to “attacks” on the gut from bad bacteria without unnecessary immune stimulation.
Research shows that just 300 mg of BeniCaros enhances the function of “Natural Killer Cells”, which play an important role in antiviral gene expression (better immunity), and help increase beneficial bacteria in the gut.
In other words, the extra support from our new formula is like having extra security guards on the lookout in your gut, further enhancing your protection from imbalance, overgrowth, and discomfort!
WHY ECOBLOOM?
Non-digestible fibers foster the growth of bifidus and acidophilus
Easy to digest, without gas or bloating
Safe for IBS, SIBO and SIFO
Soluble fiber promotes healthy elimination and appetite control
Includes a synergistic prebiotic blend to create an effective “synbiotic” effect

Everything you need to know about our powerful new enzyme blend: Release Intestinal BioFilm Cleanser.
In a nutshell: it’s like “spring cleaning” for your gut with a swat team.
Who is it for?
Release Intestinal BioFilm Cleanser is used as part of a protocol for people dealing with chronic dysbiosis and/or persistent infections in the gut, such as SIBO/SIFO or C.diff (often caused by antibiotic use).
What does it do?
In a nutshell, it breaks up biofilm layers that protect stubborn pathogens in the gut to help “reboot” your immune system and allow beneficial bacteria to thrive.
That’s where the 3 “Rs” come in:
Remove
To start repairing the microbiome, eliminate processed and toxic foods, gluten, and bad oils. Release Intestinal BioFilm Cleanser goes a step further to help detoxify biofilms where harmful pathogens like yeast, viruses, parasites, and bacteria are hiding.
Repair
Boost your inner ecosystem with nutrient-dense foods like cultured vegetables and Vitality SuperGreen. It’s formulated to help heal the gut lining, and is great in smoothies and broths too!
Repopulate
Here’s where we shine! Diversity is key. Our Probiotic Protein Shake, our starters, and our Probiotic Power Shots & Mixers, all nourish the good bacteria in your gut.
How should I use it?
Usage varies based on individual needs and the desired outcome, but in general, there are 3 main goals:
Seasonal Cleanse
Release Intestinal BioFilm Cleanser can be a powerful tool during an intestinal detox 2-3 times a year.
Every Day Use
Those looking for intestinal regularity and a heightened immune system may benefit from taking a maintenance dose of 1-2 capsules per day.
Immunity Booster
Taking a preventative dose of 2-3 capsules per day during cold and flu season may also be a good idea to strengthen the immune system. Enzymes bound with magnesium and ozone give it laxative properties. A cleaner colon means a heartier, more robust immune system!
Dosage Reminder - Start low, go slow. Personal dosage varies. Remember Body Ecology’s Principle of Uniqueness and adjust as necessary.
Magnesium + Oxygen = Your Go-To Daily Intestinal Maintenance
As always, it’s important to gauge your body’s sensitivity and never exceed the advised dosage on the bottle. Always check with your doctor or professional health care provider before taking starting any health plan or taking any supplements. The suggested dose for a 3-day or week-long cleanse is around 4-10 capsules per day, but please note: you may experience similar outcomes to a typical cleanse or enema.
Warning: If you are pregnant or nursing, please consult your healthcare professional before using this product. Keep out of the reach of children.

I've been using CREON for nearly four years but it's currently unavailable in the UK. My Doctor can't even prescribe an alternative as these are also out of stock. I was sent a link for the Grassfed Beef Pancreas & I can confirm it's doing a wonderful job! Thank God for this company!! It has allayed my anxiety & I shall be buying it moving forward. I HIGHLY recommend & give 5*.
Ok I love colostrum and the immune tree are brilliant for me ! I spend an awful lot on supplements but I always have my immune tree colostrum and it definitely improves my immune system , I suffer from Addison's ( major and total adrenal insufficiency) I don't produce any of my own cortisol and it's exhausting even with replacing with hydrocortisone as it's a fixed dose three times daily and not my body regulating the dose. However since I began to take colostrum every day I have indeed noticed some increase in stamina and definitely improved immunity. I'd highly recommend this colostrum to any one and everyone wanting that extra boost for the immune system.
