Polyphenols are bioactive compounds found in plant-based foods that display health-promoting properties*
PhytoBiome™ provides a comprehensive array of plant-derived polyphenols that interact with the gut microbiome in a unique way. Many polyphenols pass through the digestive tract without being absorbed, allowing beneficial gut bacteria, such as Akkermansia, to convert them into bioactive compounds that support microbial balance, gut barrier health, antioxidant status, and a healthy inflammatory response.*

What This Product Is
PhytoBiome is a unique blend of a variety of fruit and vegetable extracts featuring polyphenols that promote healthy diversity in the gut microbiome. Polyphenols are bioactive compounds found in plant-based foods that may have health-promoting properties. Polyphenols can exert prebiotic-like effects to help support a balanced microbiome. The polyphenols are consumed and processed by gut bacteria, which provide beneficial compounds to help promote the growth of healthy gut bacteria and maintain a healthy microbial balance.*
Diet is one of the major influences on the composition and balance of the gut microbiota. An estimated 90% to 95% of polyphenols are not absorbed in the small intestine, making them available for consumption by the bacteria in the gut. Increased consumption of these compounds may promote the growth of more friendly bacteria, promoting a diverse and healthy gut microbiome. These compounds may also support the integrity of the inner lining of the intestinal tract or protective gut barrier, and may further support antioxidant status and promote a healthy inflammatory response.*
Mechanism of Action
Polyphenol-Driven Microbiome Diversity
The formula provides 200 mg per serving of each of the following: wild blueberry blend, cranberry extract (as Exocyan™), pomegranate polyphenol extract (as Pomma+®), and quercetin to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut and support antioxidant status. These polyphenols serve as prebiotic-like substrates that are selectively consumed by beneficial gut bacteria, including keystone species like Akkermansia.*
Microbial Diversity and Inflammatory Response Support
The formula contains 100 mg per serving of each of the following: TrueBroc® broccoli seed extract, mustard seed powder, Vinia® red grape powder, and DeltaGold® delta- and gamma-tocotrienols to support microbial diversity and promote a healthy inflammatory response. This combination provides synergistic phytonutrient support for a balanced and diverse gut ecosystem.*
Gut Barrier Integrity
The polyphenol compounds support the integrity of the inner lining of the intestinal tract, the protective gut barrier that serves as a critical interface between the gut microbiome and the rest of the body. A healthy gut barrier helps maintain proper immune function, nutrient absorption, and overall gut health.*
Applications
- Individuals seeking to promote gut microbiome diversity through polyphenol supplementation*
- Those wanting to support Akkermansia and other keystone bacterial species*
- Individuals needing gut barrier integrity support*
- Those seeking antioxidant and healthy inflammatory response support through plant polyphenols*
- Individuals wanting a prebiotic-like supplement that feeds beneficial gut bacteria*

Product Questions
How do polyphenols support the gut microbiome?
An estimated 90% to 95% of polyphenols are not absorbed in the small intestine, making them available as food for beneficial bacteria in the gut. These bacteria consume and process the polyphenols, producing beneficial compounds that promote the growth of additional healthy gut bacteria, support microbial diversity, and maintain a balanced microbiome. This prebiotic-like effect helps support keystone species such as Akkermansia.*
How does PhytoBiome complement probiotic supplements?
While probiotics like ProbioMed 50 or ProbioSpore provide live beneficial bacteria directly, PhytoBiome feeds and supports the beneficial bacteria already in the gut through polyphenol-driven prebiotic effects. Using PhytoBiome alongside a probiotic provides a comprehensive approach: probiotics add beneficial bacteria while PhytoBiome nourishes them and promotes microbial diversity.*
Who may benefit most from PhytoBiome?
Individuals seeking to improve gut microbiome diversity and support keystone species, those wanting polyphenol-based prebiotic support for beneficial gut bacteria, people interested in gut barrier integrity and overall GI health, and anyone wanting to complement probiotic supplementation with targeted microbiome-nourishing polyphenols.*
