Prime Biome claims to “get to the root” of digestive and skin issues by reintroducing beneficial microbes and supporting them. According to the brand:
Probiotic Inoculation: Each gummy delivers carefully selected Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species (500 million CFU total). These beneficial bacteria help crowd out harmful ones and re-diversify the gut flora. Once the probiotic strains settle in, they assist in breaking down food, extracting nutrients, and producing compounds beneficial for gut lining integrity.
Prebiotic Support: The formula includes inulin (from chicory root) or other prebiotic fibers that effectively “feed” the newly introduced beneficial bacteria. This ensures they aren’t starved out, allowing them to multiply and remain active for longer. A synergy is created: the probiotics do their job better because the prebiotics keep them well-fed.
Egyptian Blue Root & Antioxidants: Prime Biome also includes an ancient Egyptian plant root with a unique “blue” hue, reputedly high in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. This helps soothe inflammation in the gut and, interestingly, is believed to benefit skin elasticity. The logic is that by reducing gut inflammation, you reduce systemic inflammation, which can reflect in calmer, more vibrant skin. The additional antioxidants may also protect skin cells from oxidative stress.
Protecting the Gut Barrier: Many digestive issues stem from a compromised gut lining (sometimes called “leaky gut”). If the gut barrier is weak, toxins or partially digested particles can slip into the bloodstream, causing widespread inflammation. Prime Biome’s probiotics and antioxidants aim to reinforce the gut lining, leading to improved nutrient absorption and fewer triggers for systemic inflammation.
Holistic Benefits: Beyond digestive relief, this more harmonious gut environment can have knock-on effects for immunity (since ~70% of immune cells are located in the gut), mood (the gut-brain axis), and skin clarity/anti-aging. Essentially, by strengthening the “engine room” of the body (the gut), you might see improvements in multiple areas.
