LeanBiome(R) contains a patented combination of fibres, prebiotics and minerals developed to increase the microbiome diversity of athletes on a high protein diet. A diverse microbiome is important in harvesting essential nutrients from the diet and has been linked to improved health and wellbeing and increased resilience to disease. Many researchers now believe that a diverse microbiome is an essential factor in achieving physical fitness, which was previously thought to be achievable solely through a healthy diet and regular exercise. This is supported by the growing scientific evidence of a link between the microbiome and athletic performance which suggest that optimizing an athletes gut microbiome could improve and athletes stamina, lower inflammation, and support physical fitness ( Frontiers | Editorial: Nutrition to support gut health and the microbiome in athletes (frontiersin.org)

It is supported by multiple published clinical studies which show it helps reduce body fat around the waist and hips, improving body leanness whilst enhancing the diversity of the gut microbiome to improve stamina and overall fitness.

"LeanBiome(R) is a unique product which is increasingly being recognised by major sports brands as a key differentiator from existing products and has the potential to have a major impact in the sports nutrition and health and fitness markets ."
