MegaPrebiotic Powder by Microbiome labs
MegaPrebiotic Powder by Microbiome labs is a cutting-edge Precision Prebiotic™ supplement made up of clinically-tested, non-digestible oligosaccharides that can increase microbial diversity and selectively feed beneficial, keystone bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, and Bifidobacteria.
MegaPrebiotic Powder REINFORCES the beneficial microbial changes created by MegaSporeBiotic™ to promote a strong and diverse microbiome.
Functions
- Diversify the microbiome
- Support keystone species
- Support immunity
Prebiotics are non-digestible fibers that feed the bacteria living in your gut. However, most prebiotics on the market can feed both harmful and beneficial gut bacteria, which can exacerbate digestive issues. Keystone bacteria like bacterium prausnitzii, and Bifidobacteria are very important for human health, but their populations can be easily diminished by antibiotics, stress, diet, glyphosate, and other environmental toxins.
Total Gut Restoration:

REBUILD
MegaMucosa™ is the first complete mucosal support supplement of its kind, formulated with key amino acids to REBUILD a healthy mucosal barrier. MegaMucosa™ also contains dairy-free immunoglobulins clinically shown to support a healthy immune response in the mucosa and a state-of-the-art flavobiotic clinically shown to support microbial diversity and alleviate barrier dysfunction, otherwise known as leaky gut.*
Keystone bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, and Bifidobacteria are very important for human health, but their populations can be easily diminished by antibiotics, stress, diet, glyphosate, and other environmental toxins.
A. muciniphila plays an important role in metabolism and has been shown to promote fat loss. Low levels of A. muciniphila have been associated with obesity, diabetes, liver disease, cardiometabolic diseases, and low-grade inflammation.**
F. prausnitzii can increase the production of butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid that can relieve intestinal inflammation. Low levels of F. prausnitzii have been associated with irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, and chronic constipation.**
Bifidobacteria can also increase butyrate production and promote lean body mass. Low levels of of Bifidobacteria have been associated with obesity, diabetes, celiac disease, allergic asthma, dermatitis, IBD, chronic fatigue syndrome, and psoriasis.**
**Increasing populations of these protective bacteria is an integral part of reinforcing a healthy gut microbiome. Studies have shown that a more diverse gut microbiome is associated with a stronger immune system and a decreased risk for chronic illness.
MegaPrebiotic Powder + Immunity
Research shows that the ingredients in MegaPre™ can help support a strong immune system through the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which can subsequently stimulate intestinal cells to produce a protective compound known as β-defensin that can help to keep the gut microbiome in balance.
One study found that consuming Livaux® gold kiwifruit concentrate, found in MegaSporeBiotic™, could modulate the immune system by increasing the production of T-cells and immunoglobulins, such as IgG, which can help support a balanced gut microbiome.
Another study conducted on the effects of B-GOS on immune function in elderly adults found that the lactose-derived B-GOS significantly increased phagocytosis and natural killer cell activity, two components that are essential for a strong immune system.
The three fundamental aspects of gut health include: the microbial population, physical structures, and regulatory immune function. A healthy gut microbiome is multi-faceted and relies heavily upon all 3 of these factors, like a three-legged stool.
For this reason, therapies that only address one of these facets do not typically provide total restoration of a dysfunctional GI tract. The Microbiome Labs Total Gut Restoration system was uniquely designed to target all 3 of these areas, providing healthcare professionals with highly effective tools in the battle against chronic disease
Aren’t all prebiotics the same?
Prebiotics are essentially dietary fibers that cannot be digested or absorbed by the human digestive tract but instead feed the bacteria living in your gut. The problem is that most prebiotics on the market are not selective.
This means that they can feed both harmful and beneficial gut bacteria, which can often exacerbate digestive issues.MegaPre™ contains medium-chain carbohydrates, known as oligosaccharides, that cannot be digested by humans but instead target keystone species known as secondary degraders.
Primary degraders feed on the bulkier fibers like cellulose, resistant starches, and inulin and then convert them into intermediate products like acetate, lactate, and oligosaccharides that can then feed the butyrate-producing secondary degraders.
These complex fibers are important because they can feed beneficial bacteria, but they can also be utilized byharmful bacteria. For this reason, we decided to skip the first step and provide the gut microbiome with the intermediate byproducts that it needs to produce beneficial short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) like butyrate.
The oligosaccharides used in MegaPre™ have been clinically shown to significantly increase keystone species like:
- Akkermansia muciniphila
- Faecalibacterium prausnitzii
- Bifidobacteria
All of which are very important for a healthy metabolism, intestinal barrier function, and body composition.
- Livaux® FOS increases F. prausnitzii by 100% in 4 weeks
- B-GOS increases Bifidobacteria by 67% in 1 week
- PreticX® XOS increases Bifidobacteria by 21% and significantly increases A. muciniphila in 4 weeks
MegaPrebiotic Powder was designed to specifically reinforce these keystone strains without feeding the dysbiotic flora in the gut.
MegaPrebiotic Powder contains a proprietary blend of functional fibers that specifically feed these keystone bacteria. This unique blend is made up of clinically-tested-and-published, non-digestible oligosaccharides, derived from non-GMO green and gold kiwi fruit, non-GMO corn cob, and rBST-free cow’s milk.

rBST-free cow’s milk | Galactooligosaccharides |
Increasing populations of these protective keystone bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, and Bifidobacterium species is an integral part of reinforcing a healthy gut microbiome.*
The findings of the oligosaccharide studies are quite impressive:
- FOS increased populations of A. mucin by 8,000% in 5 weeks
- FOS increased populations of F. prau by 100% in 4 weeks
- GOS increased populations of Bifido by 10% in 6 weeks
- XOS increased populations of Bifido by 9% in 8 weeks
Increasing populations of these protective bacteria is an integral part of reinforcing a healthy gut microbiome.

Storage Advice
The MegaMucosa and Mega Prebiotic is powder that is very susceptible to humidity.
The instructions state to store in a cool dark place, but occasionally consumers put it in places like kitchen cupboards, when the kitchen has multiple sources of humidity such as kettles, and any moisture from cooking in pots and pans, etc.
Under normal use, one tub of these Microbiome Labs powdered supplements would be consumed within 30 days. I have personally experienced the supplement kept for longer than that starting to change to a darker colour and then clumping together.
Once that process starts it is a clear indication that the powder has been exposed to some sort of humidity. (In my case, the kitchen….) And once it starts, it seems to accelerate quickly, becoming more clumpy and solid within a few weeks.
The powder may not look very ‘attractive’, after being exposed to moisture, but most likely the product will still function to some lesser extent.
The trick is to:
- Leave the desiccant pack in the powder, never remove it until the powder is finished
- Never open the lid in an environment with excessive moisture
- (i.e. In a kitchen with a boiling kettle or when cooking)
- Always use a totally dry scoop to dispense the powder
- Keep the lid very tightly sealed, in a dry environment well away from moisture
- (Not a cupboard near or above the kettle, hob or sink)
- Consume within 30 – 40 days of opening
- Like many other products, 3 – 4 months after opening is simply way too long
Storage and humidity aside, any consumer may not get any noticeable benefits from the Microbiome Labs supplements if they are consuming at such a trivial rate that they still have powder remaining at the end of one+ month/s.
I hope the above makes sense and can only impress upon each consumer to ensure that if they choose to take these supplements they ensure once opened that they are consumed in one month.
