Jared's personal health story
- tearing his ACL and how he recovered fast using cartilage collagen

*made by hydrolysis which denatures structure of collagen
- type 2 = cartilage collagen

What is evolutionary biology?
- how genetics adapt overtime
- “evolutionary mismatch”
Terraflora: soil based microbes/probiotics
- community is more important than single members
*increased diversity represents a healthier gut
Why soil-based?
- creates/produces antioxidants
- naturally resilient to heat, light
- no need to keep in fridge
- missing from modern life
- enhances nutrient synergy
Resident vs transient bacteria
- resident bacteria = permanent, stays in GI tract for forever
- transient bacteria = benefits GI tract then population declines when no longer exposed
Who needs Terraflora?

Take Home Message:
Jared is so passionate and knowledgable about manufacturing the best supplements on the market. He emphasizes that quality matters and after chatting with Jared, we trust he sources top notch ingredients and is meticulous when it comes to his brand.
We hope you check out Enviromedica and consider purchasing their cartilage collagen, topical magnesium, and Terraflora soil-based probiotic. Like Jared said: as we age we produce less and less collagen so it's smart to supplement to support joint health AND probiotics are like a daily health insurance and will support a robust GI tract.
