Spring Clean your Gut: GUTRIGHT Modbiotic® Protocol

Coming out of winter, are you feeling a bit slow or sluggish? Do you feel like your sleep, mood, or recovery is off? Your stomach doing weird things, and does your digestion feel a bit off? ATP Science has created the Gutright Challenge to help us Spring Clean our guts! Minor changes to diet and lifestyle, and you can get back to feeling 100%.

What can contribute to poor digestion?

The reasons why poor digestion occurs are almost endless; from poor diet choices, highly processed food to soil and plants lacking nutrients with modern "fast" farming practises, keeping a healthy guy in a modern-day environment is a HUGE challenge for many people. Without the proper nutrition and supportive supplementation, you can end up with more than just a heavy feeling in your tummy; a deficiency in polyphenols, fibre, and other essential nutrients can make you feel sluggish, brain dead, and cause ongoing gut troubles such as leaky gut.

Modbiotic Gutright Protocol

Take one scoop of Gutright Original by ATP Science 3x a day for 10 days. Mixing your Gutright in water is ideal, or you can have a 'Modbiotic® diet-friendly juice.

What's a Modbiotic®?

According to our friends at  ATP Science, "a Modbiotic® is a group of natural compounds including polyphenols that help to maintain a healthy diverse microbiome". A Modbiotic® can assist in modifying the microbiome, acting differently to probiotics. ATP argues, if you're chowing down tons of probiotics, you may be adding strains your body has too much of or simply unnecessary ones.

What is the Modbiotic® diet?

It is recommended to follow the Modbiotic diet when doing the Gut Right Protocol. The Modbiotic diet prioritises simple carbohydrates over complex carbs and sugars - simple carbs are quicker to digest and therefore less likely to ferment and feed intestinal organisms, which cause those unwanted gut disturbances. 

How to do the whole Gut Right Protocol

1. Take one scoop of Gutright Original by ATP Science 3x a day for 10 days. Mixing your Gutright in water is ideal, or you can have a 'Modbiotic® diet-friendly juice'.

3. Finished the 10 days? Go back to only 1 serve daily, you can use Gutright Original or Gutright Daily!
