The Kombucha Kraze: What You Need to Know Part II

The Kombucha Kraze: What You Need to Know Part II

January 17, 2020

In the past couple of blogs, we have been discussing how probiotics are popping up everywhere - in coffee, cereal, dog food, and cleaning products. We explained spore-forming bacteria and why they are convenient to the manufacturer but may have no benefit to the consumer. Then, we took a closer look at kombucha -- we went over the ingredients in the drink, the heavy sugar load often associated with these drinks, common homebrew issues, some risks for biological and chemical contaminants...

The Kombucha Kraze: What You Need to Know

October 21, 2019

Kombucha is a beverage produced by fermenting sweet tea with a culture of yeast and bacteria. The culture is often referred to as a SCOBY - or a Symbiotic Culture OBacteria and Yeast and frequently referred to as a “mother” or “mushroom” (because of the shape it takes on). 

Probiotics in Your Coffee? Granola Bar? Cleaning Products?

Probiotics in Your Coffee? Granola Bar? Cleaning Products?

August 13, 2019

Have you noticed that probiotics are popping up everywhere? And it’s not just in the form of supplements anymore, suddenly they’re in coffee pods, granola bars, cleaning products, and even Fido’s dry dog food? If you’ve been following along with our blogs here at Natren, you know that we are pretty adamant about how we handle our products -- being careful to ship our probiotics in thermally-controlled boxes with gel-ice packs and even dry ice in the summertime. Why? Because they are living microorganisms that can be damaged by overexposure to light, heat, and moisture. If you’re new to Natren and want to learn more about the proper handling of probiotics check out some of our previous blogs:
When is the Best Time to Take Probiotics?

When is the Best Time to Take Probiotics?

August 13, 2019

We often get asked when is the best time to take probiotics – morning, evening, before or after food. Taking probiotics at any time is better than not taking them at all, of course, but taking probiotics at the right time can optimize the health benefits of this supplement. Staying on a regular routine can be difficult for some people, as hectic lifestyles can make it hard to do anything at the same time each day. Other people take so many medications that they simply add probiotics to the handful of pills they already take, with little regard as to.... [Read More...]

Fibromyalgia Pain And Gut Bacteria

Fibromyalgia Pain And Gut Bacteria

July 08, 2019

What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a long-lasting or chronic disorder that causes muscle pain and an overall feeling of tiredness. People with this condition experience pain and tenderness throughout many parts of their body. It is often associated with other chronic conditions such as Chronic fatigue syndrome, endometriosis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and more. Anyone can get this but it does occur more frequently in women and often starts in middle age.

The Multiple Strain Probiotic Problem

The Multiple Strain Probiotic Problem

May 23, 2019

Natren has always held the position that multiple strain probiotics are not necessarily better than targeted single strain probiotics, or probiotics with a select few strains. As the industry continues to be flooded with more and more products we think it is a perfect time to review the reasons behind our targeted approach.

Everyone's Best Friend

Everyone's Best Friend

October 15, 2018

From the moment we bring them home, our pets become members of the family. Obviously it is much easier to hug a dog or cat and feel a special bond with them than it is a goldfish, but animals of any kind bring much joy and happiness to our lives. We would do anything for our animal kin. Safe And Secure October is National Animal Safety And Protection Month. Perhaps it is not ironic that it is also Emotional Wellness Month. If our pets are not doing well it can take a huge emotional and mental toll on us, as.... [Read More...]

Inner Healing

Inner Healing

October 10, 2018

Most of us get an annual check up and physical, but what about our emotional well being? When we feel mentally off, it can affect us physically. And when we are physically unwell, it can affect us mentally. It creates a rather vicious cycle that can keep us spinning in a seemingly endless circle. Stressed Over Stress Stress and anxiety are a normal part of life, but can become a much bigger issue for some, and take a huge physical toll. If we are suffering from sleepless nights with worry and concern, that means we are missing out on the.... [Read More...]
