Layer Origin PureHMO® Prebiotic Powder and SuperHMO® 5-Strain Prebiotic Powder are the two absolute powerhouses! Both powders are easy to incorporate into your daily routine, and the benefits are unparalleled.

Let's take a look distinguishes the SuperHMO® from the original PureHMO®.

Layer Origin PureHMO® vs SuperHMO®

PureHMO® Prebiotic Powder contains one type of HMO, 2'FL, which is great for feeding Bifidobacteria, a foundational bacteria for the gut microbiome.

SuperHMO® Prebiotic Mix expands on PureHMO® (think: better immunity, brain health, mental health, sleep, blood sugar, emotion, weight, energy etc.) and continues to diversify your gut microbiome. SuperHMO® contains five HMOs including 2'FL, LNNT, LNT, 3'SL, 6'SL, which is great for feeding not only Bifidobacteria, but many other key species as well.

This formula is designed to promote the growth of over 100 strains of beneficial probiotics in the gut.

Ultimately, the SuperHMO® Powder is perfect for giving the gut an amazing boost that benefits your overall health!

Here's a visual explanation of how each of the 5 HMO strains work to impact different aspects of health:

Carnivore Diet

The carnivore diet focuses on consuming primarily animal products, emphasising the high intake of wild game or pasture-raised meats while largely excluding plant-based foods. This diet has garnered attention for its potential health benefits, such as improved well-being and satisfaction, but also raises concerns about nutrient deficiencies in areas typically covered by plant foods, like vitamin C and magnesium. To counter these deficiencies, adherents often supplement with vitamins B12, D, and omega-3 fatty acids. While the diet may positively impact metabolic health and diabetes management, it also carries risks related to increased consumption of red meat and its potential effects on cardiovascular health.

Magnesium

It takes 10-15 years or prediabetes before clinical Type 2 diabetes is typically diagnosed. That is to say, it takes years of overconsumption of simple carbs, processed foods combined with a high stress (sympathetic-dominant) lifestyle.
